Is the media ready to build Cam back up again?

[h0llywood]

Cam will finish 3rd in MVP voting this year.

[G spot]

Media and Haters:

"hrumph snarlgrowlflemspit...erm..RG3, KK, Wilson and Luck all went to the playoffs". "Nanananabooboo sti-"

Me:

[Peppers90 NC]

they will have to tear down Luck, RG3 and/or Wilson this year. I mean everyone has to have a sophomore slump right?

[Gucci Mane]

They wont tear down Luck/RG3/Wilson like they did Cam, because those dudes dont have the superstar swag that Cam does, and people love hating on people that love themselves.

[CatMan72]

He won't give them any choice, they'll have to start recognizing what a truly special talent he is again... RG3 will fade, teams have tons of tape on him now, won't get away with a simplified offense anymore.

[Zod]

As far as I know Luck or RG3 didn't turn them down for interviews so I am guessing they will be treated better

[TheRed]

Lmao nice pot stirring there Zod.

[Brokenbad]

*** the media and play football.

[Mr. Scot]

yep...unless you are a large and super-hyped market team the only chance you have for any real respect at all from the fickle media is to be a winner.

One of these days, you just know Tony Romo is going to prove how good he really is :unsure:

[BigSombrero]

I don't believe and I hope that Cam doesn't care whether the media builds him up or not.

Im a Bucs fan and like the panthers, we are a small market team. More often than not, best case scenario media wise is that we are ignored. If the media pays any attention to our teams it will be because of a negative situation.

Just accept that fact and do as I do, spend your days sending hate mail to Yasinskas and ESPN analysts in general explaining how dumb you think they are and how unjust it is that your team is never talked about in a good light. It wont change anything of course but it does make you feel better.

Honestly I just hope they show a short highlight of our games this season. Anyone that remembers game 1 last season, Bucs vs Panthers, knows that ESPN didn't show one clip of that game period. Weren't a lot of highlights admittedly but I figure no one would die if they took 30 seconds out of the "The Golden Calf of Bristol/RG3?NYJets/Pats" love fest going on over there to remind people Carolina and Tampa have franchises in the NFL.

[Mr. Scot]

Newton has one of those personalities that some people love and others hate. Most of us probably know someone like that. He's that friend you occasionally have to explain after something he says unintentionally rubs someone the wrong way. You like him, you'll always hang out with him, but sometimes he says something that makes you wince.

Happily, the Panthers have shown they have guys (like Kalil and Gross last year) who are good at keeping things smooth. So for me, as long as he gets along with his teammates, I'm not especially concerned about his media image.

Huh? None of us know this guy personally. We watch him on the tv, that's where it ends.

It's quite easy to judge a 24 year old kid still learning his way in the league. I'll listen to what his teammates and coaches say about him before I will fans who merely watch him play on Sundays.

[The Golden Child]

If he wins games everyone will love Cam.

[Donald LaFell]

unless we win they will find ways to tear him down.
