Thread: Do you like/hate Cam - like/hate his celebrations

I was indifferent when he came into the league, though he's an Auburn Tiger. I didn't think he'd turn into the player he has become and he has grown into a damn good QB. Who cares if he showboats, so does our very own Von Miller.(which I don't have a problem either). I guess if the BRONCOS don't want to see Newton showboat, then they need to shut him down. I like the way he and his teammates make the kids part of the game and celebration by giving them a game ball.

I've expressed my anti-Cam opinion. If I had a Pro Cam opinion, and I might if he and the Panthers beat us the same way they've been beating everybody this season, my opinion would consist of me having to accept that Cam has learned how to play QB. He has a plethora of plays he can audible to, he can effectively read defenses, and he has improved his accuracy (I'll actually admit that last one now).

Where's the "I don't give a flying ****" choice?

This.

I don't like or dislike him or his celebrations. Frankly, I couldn't care less.

I rate him incredibly highly and think he is a good dude.

I love his celebrations.

The only time I did not like the superman was during his rookie year when the team were tanking and he was celebrating...i just don't think he had much to celebrate and to do so was quite selfish.

But now he iss a team player and he is winning so I think he had earned his right to celebrate

He's a great player, has just put together a great season, enjoys the game and the fans. What's not to like?

Panthers seem to be a classy team from the coaches, players, and fans.

I'm not saying that until after the game. Until that final whistle, they are scum!

I like cam. I like what he does on and off the field. You dint hear about issues of the field. I could care less if his smile is fake, and he plays to the camera. He is an entertainer.

Are you not entertained?

I like him and his celebrations. I think he's entertaining.

Eh, maybe that was true once, but he is definitely Carolina's leader. The locker room loves him. And he constantly gives credit to his teammates and even wore cleats with all of his teammates' names written on them for the NFCCG.

And I think he's being genuine, and is a genuinely good guy off the field. He doesn't just hand balls to kids, he's very involved in the community in Charlotte and gives back a lot. Sure he was immature in college, but weren't most people?

Earlier this year, I hated Cam Newton. Thought he was the biggest jerk in history. Now, My attitude has changed. Yes, he is narcissistic, but that doesnt necessarily make him a bad person.There is no way I can hate a guy who goes out of his way to make A little kid happy. Hell, Cam just seems to be out there having the time of his life, embracing the moment. Dude rubbed me the wrong way at first, but then after learning more, hes not bad. He is smart, articulate and charismatic. If he wins this game, he is going to be EVERYWHERE. Now that would suck

Hopefully we knock the living shit out of him early on and we dont have to see him do any celebrating until next fall.

That would be the 5th option on the poll.
