UPDATE! Rick Reilly is a lying dingleberry clinging to his hatred of Cam Newton

[Silent Majority]

Waaaah, Cam is a diva. 'Everyone' says it! See I'm not a hater, waiting for the kid to make any mistake so I can pile on. I heard from a co-worker, that heard from a cousin, that overheard from the RR's gardener, that Cam hates dressing with the team, so he has a seperate dressing room. Whiney ass, entitled for no reason, fan base.

[fieryprophet]

Isn't Zod supposed to be in with the whole Panthers org? Why isn't he breaking this news?

[teeray]

Well, I am also sure that since Cowherd brought him on the show to talk about this, and provide him with an outlet to say erroneous things to a fairly large national audience on TV and on the radio, that Cowherd will either disavow this lie or let it be known that it was a false statement.

I will wait patiently for this ;)

[teeray]

How may divas take time to meet with opposing team's equipment guys??

I'm sure it was just so they could say how "happy they were he took the time to meet them" and Cam could bask in that glory of knowing other people want to meet him.

[CPF4LIFE]

That just lets know how bad its gotten that these guys are timing how long it takes Cam to get dressed.

Reilly made up a story... I'm shocked!

[Dpantherman]

So not only did he flat out LIE, he did it on a nationally syndicated ESPN radio show. What piece of poo.

[PhillyB]

this is how idiotic notions and false perceptions disseminate. everyone hears the story and nobody hears the retraction (because it doesn't exist.)

it had to have been frustrating back in 2010 and 2011 leading up to the draft for cam hearing loads of made-up bullshit that's never really been retracted, only suppressed until it can be resurrected after a bad game now. frankly i think the fact that he's managed to keep it together in spite of this constant uphill battle is a true testament to his strength of character.

Butbutbut Jordan Gross's doctor!!!

Why would anyone be surprised at this? We've all seen how the media has a lovefest with Cam when he's hot, and trash him like a 3 time offender when he's not. This is nothing new.

The same thing happens here among hard core Panther fans, so why should the media be any different? Just don't pay attention to this kind of crap and think for yourselves.

But wait... I was assured in another thread that if Cam would only CONFORM to the requirements and expectations of him found within the sports media that they would treat him like a king!

If our fanbase was worth a poo we'd be tweeting him death threats and emailing ESPN calling for him to be fired.

Nothing like good ol' fashioned death threats to prove your point.

we save that for anyone with the GALL to ask to wear the #4 jersey.
