    It’s unfortunate that such a great football player has become an idiot.

    lol. yeah, but he bit someone's ear off b/c he's black. :001_rolleyes:



    Moon is acting like a big freakin baby who's making every attempt to deflect an issue into something racial. That's one of the lowest forms of low IMO. Nothing pisses a non-racist person off more than calling them racist. On second thought, saying someone loves pickles when they can't stand them might be worse, but the racist thing is close behind it.

    If Gabbert had been caught cheating multiple times, was issued a dozen various traffic violations, and was involved in a stolen laptop issue and massive recruitment controversy, then people would be scrutinizing him like crazy right now, too. Cam made his bed; now he gets to lay in it until he's completely earned back peoples' trust. He's no different than any other race in this regard.

    Moon, stop whining and trying to hold your advisee to a different standard. **** off, Warren. I hope Moon realizes that he's provoking more racial tension with crap like this rather than lessening it.

    I just lost a lot of respect for Warren Moon. I gave him more credit than to come out with something like this. :pity:

    Moon did experience a lot of racism during his time for being a black quarterback.

    It do not see why it is so hard to understand how he can see the parallels between his time and now.

    We have come a long way since his time. It is not like Cam Newton has to go to the CFL to prove he has the cranial capacity to play quarterback.

    Still I hope you all enjoy your views from your ivory towers.

    Hes MAKING it racist.

    Really? Is he? Or did he do criminal activities in his past, and there is a black cloud over him (that he created) ?

    Did Blaine Gabbert or Christian Ponder get kicked out of school, steal, allegedly take tons of money (or ask for it), get their fathers suspended from games? Nope.

    It's not cause hes black, its cause he has a history. Ryan Mallett isnt black, and hes getting a ton of criticism.

    That's only pre-construction. Once the towers are actually built, Dupree tells me they both have the same amount of floors. FWIW

    I'm sure its a little of both. There are probably some people that don't like Cam Newton because he's black. I'm sure there are some people that don't like Cam Newton because they think he has character issues. I'm sure there some people that don't like Cam Netwon because he's black but don't realize it and think its character issues. Its not a polarizing issue. There are a lot of spotswriters in this country and I'm sure there is a wide spread of emotions on towards Cam Netwon. If there are people that will rip Cam Netwon down simply because he chose Auburn..I'm sure there are those that will tear him down for other reasons. But, in all honesty...its a non-issue. Cam will go in the Top 5, get his money and then its on Cam. No one will remember Warren Moon's comments 6 months from now so really its not a very strong talking point. I blame the CBA.
