The best part about that is the video that showed up on my FB the other day. It was MD's explaining all the major traumas and fatal injuries the guys would have received from all the booby traps that Kevin set up.

That's a bit harsh honestly. The guy did not have a good college career at all, but we shouldn't still be punishing the guy for things he did as a kid. He has matured and spends a lot of time in the Charlotte area doing charitable works and is by all accounts a stand up guy. You don't have to like him, but don't trash the guy for mistakes made in the past.

We are only seeing what the team's PR machine allow us to see. I would like to be wrong but it is a matter of when and not if. The higher he goes the harder the fall.

Wow, we've got some very judgmental people here. With all of the scrutiny that Cam has been under since he came into the league, if he was doing anything questionable at all outside of football, we would know about it. Some people don't want to give someone the benefit of the doubt that they have changed/matured/grown up at all. I have no problem with people disliking him based on his cockiness/arrogance, because he definitely has that, but so do many other players.

Jimbo Fisher is always checking.
About Newton, it bothers me how he bragged about the "the money was too good to pass". We have a Spanish say, a bent tree will never straight up its trunk (árbol que nace doblado, jamas el tronco endeza). Based on the first years of Newton in the league I did not see an improvement in the character department. He said stuff like "I have to bring my teammates to my level" while being a rookie. That tells you how much he thinks about himself. That kind of people always mess up sooner or later because they think they are above everybody else.
I have a list of players I dislike, for one reason or the other. Am not a fan of any team so can go through all the teams and pick a player or two that I dislike in each one.
Brady - cheater (used to like him, he just made the list)
Big Ben - rapist
Vick - Do I really need to explain here?
Winston - thief and more...we all know.
Newton - thief, liar (Do believe he did not know about the money he got paid for playing for Auburn?)
(It is my personal opinion that Winston and Newton are the best examples of what is wrong with college football.)
Hardy - woman beater
Manziel - you mention it. It is actually almost sad.
There are some that are gone like Ray Rice and Ray Lewis. There are others I used to dislike until learned more about them (i.e. Richard Sherman). 95% of the NFL players are arrogant so am not including those in the list. The other day I was watching a Packer's game where Rodgers was having a field day with the defense. He was being pretty arrogant during the game. It was good to see him being brought back to Earth on the past two or three games.

The local "oldies" radio station has started playing music from the "80's." :redface:

The "classic rock" station has stayed true to it's name so far. And no, they do not play Everclear. The "alternative rock" station does though.
