Dear Mr. Newton,

Congratulations on your win in Nashville today. Our team played well, but yours played better. Kudos to the Panthers organization.

That game happened to be my nine year old daughter’s first live NFL experience. She was surprised to see so many Panthers’ fans sitting in our section of the stadium; that doesn’t happen much at fourth grade football games. And she was excited we were near the end zone, so we would be close to the “action,” particularly in the second half.


Because of where we sat, we had a close up view of your conduct in the fourth quarter. The chest puffs. The pelvic thrusts. The arrogant struts and the ‘in your face’ taunting of both the Titans’ players and fans. We saw it all.

I refuse to believe you don’t realize you are a role model. You are paid millions of dollars every week to play hard and be a leader. In the off season you’re expected to make appearances, support charities, and inspire young kids to pursue your sport and all sports. With everything the NFL has gone through in recent years, I’m confident they have advised that you are, by virtue of your position and career choice, a role model.

And because you are a role model, your behavior brought out like behavior in the stands. Some of the Panthers fans in our section began taunting the hometown fans. Many Titans fans booed you, a few offering instructive, but not necessarily family friendly, suggestions as to how you might change your behavior.


My daughter sensed the change immediately – and started asking questions. Won’t he get in trouble for doing that? Is he trying to make people mad? Do you think he knows he looks like a spoiled brat?

I didn’t have great answers for her, and honestly, in an effort to minimize your negative impact and what was otherwise a really fun day, I redirected her attention to the cheerleaders and mascot.

I could tell she was still thinking about it as we boarded a shuttle back to our car. “I guess he doesn’t have kids or a Mom at home watching the game,” she added.

I don’t know about your family life Mr. Newton, but I think I’m safe in saying thousands of kids watch you every week. You have amazing talent and an incredible platform to be a role model for them. Unfortunately, what you modeled for them today was egotism, arrogance and poor sportsmanship.


Is that what your coaches and mentors modeled for you, Mr. Newton?




redirected her child's attention to the cheerleaders? lmao

this is what happens at football games. the letter should have been addressed to the fans who were saying the not so "family friendly" things.

Clearly, she has never in her life been to a football game of ANY kind. pop warner, jv, varsity, college, semi-pro or a pro game

I basically treated him like any other can't-miss, all-the-tools guy from a big school (read: disliked him) until I saw all the CFB writers with penis envy trying to take him down a peg and how fans were reacting. The dude is a monster and it's been clear he was gonna be one for a long time. I don't get the way he is treated on seemingly all sides. Like I want to call 'cism but it seems to go beyond that.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

really bizarre how he brings the creep shit out of people. i know it's made me a fan.

that is fucking w/ the holy grail of whiteness. muhfuckas flock to hate crusade, consequently.

maybe that's why it seems to be 'more' than just cism. because they go all the way the fuck in.

There is just another layer with this dude that wasn't there with the Vicks and McNabbs and other dudes who got shit on for being black QBs.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

seriously tho... retired white QB's HATE Cam.

I think it's because with Vick and McNabb you could see the flaws in their game. This dude ran through the SEC, won a Heisman and a National Title while smashing Tebow's single season record.

He has the longest regular season winning streak dating back to last year and is winning without a good WR on his team.

You should see the frustration in person when watching a Carolina game and a Cam hater is talking Shit.

Let's be completely honest, this nonsense is rooted in racial hatred.

That is a role model I definitely want my kids to look up to!!

Pure unadulterated 'cism!!!!

Someone Tell This Tennessee Mom That It's OK She Kinda Wants to Fuck Cam Newton

Someone Tell This Tennessee Mom That It's OK She Kinda Wants to Fuck Cam Newton
On Tuesday, the Charlotte Observer ran a cute letter from a reader who is mad at Cam Newton, but perhaps not for the reason she thinks.

“Tennesee Titans fan Rosemary Plorin of Nashville attended Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers with her fourth-grade daughter,” prefaced the Observer. “On Monday, she sent us this note she wrote to Panthers’ quarterback Cam Newton.”

Dear Mr. Newton, writes Rosemary Plorin:

Congratulations on your win in Nashville today. Our team played well, but yours played better. Kudos to the Panthers organization.

That game happened to be my nine year old daughter’s first live NFL experience. She was surprised to see so many Panthers’ fans sitting in our section of the stadium; that doesn’t happen much at fourth grade football games. And she was excited we were near the end zone, so we would be close to the “action,” particularly in the second half.

Because of where we sat, we had a close up view of your conduct in the fourth quarter. The chest puffs. The pelvic thrusts. The arrogant struts and the ‘in your face’ taunting of both the Titans’ players and fans. We saw it all.

Plorin is referring to the traditionally demonstrative Newton’s two-yard rush late in the game for a touchdown that he then followed up by “dabbing on em,” as the kids say.


Plorin writes, “to Cam”:

Many Titans fans booed you, a few offering instructive, but not necessarily family friendly, suggestions as to how you might change your behavior.

My daughter sensed the change immediately – and started asking questions. Won’t he get in trouble for doing that? Is he trying to make people mad? Do you think he knows he looks like a spoiled brat?

“Why are you adjusting your jeans like that, Mommy?”

I didn’t have great answers for her, and honestly, in an effort to minimize your negative impact and what was otherwise a really fun day, I redirected her attention to the cheerleaders and mascot.

I could tell she was still thinking about it as we boarded a shuttle back to our car. “I guess he doesn’t have kids or a Mom at home watching the game,” she added.

Mom will be thinking about it too, sweetie. Mom will think about it long and hard all night.

...Within hours it went viral, and Rosemary Plorin was not Rosemary Plorin anymore. She was Tennessee Mom. She was an internet meme, a canvass on which people could offer their thoughts on sports, culture and race.

Or they could just answer her scorn with theirs. Plorin was called an awful parent and a racist, plus a lot of things less printable than those. One of the classier responses, however, came from Newton.

“Everybody’s entitled to their own opinion. Everyone is. You can’t fault her for that,” he told reporters Wednesday. “If she feels offended, I apologize to her, but at the end of the day, I am who I am. It is what it is.”

her response...


“I watched the video of Cam Newton responding to media questions about my letter to him earlier this week. I really appreciate his comments and his respect for my thoughts, and I was impressed with the sensitivity and graciousness with which he spoke. I am sorry I didn’t understand him better until this week. It is clear from his remarks that he recognizes his leadership role, both on and off the field, and that he truly cares about the kids watching him. I respect his comments just as much as he did mine, and I wish him nothing but continued success on the field and in life.”

worth earning. The whole situation disgusts me, because I can't help but think about the other 99.999999% of the time when a Black male doesn't have indisputable evidence that he isn't the terrible human being that he's been made out to be publicly.
Not coming at you with my response, just speaking my thoughts.

if you're big and tall, you have to prove you can't play, if you're short and slight, you have to prove that you can.

same thing with race and personality, black athletes have to win people over and white ones are good old boys.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

maybe she had a convo with herself or her team
