I don't even care about the game but that one is just priceless.

You don't need any further evidence for "Pax Americana" than the sheer amount of worldwide media coverage concerning not only the Superbowl but about the antics of Cam Newton.

I really was stunned.

I don't get it either. I see a guy that dedicated his life to winning games like this and he failed this time around. Not sure WTF he's supposed to be acting like other than feeling defeated.

Not to mention at 26 years old, if I was giving a press conference after a loss like that, and a defender from the other team was talking trash in another interview within earshot, I wouldn't have left as gracefully as he did.

He's young and still has time to learn about humility. Give him a chance.

A good villain makes for great ratings. The sports media (all media for that matter) are going to milk this for every once they can. Pride comes before a fall. Build them up, and knock them down.

I'm not one to defend Cam but, those reporters sure didn't give him very good questions to work with. I'm surprised he hung in there that long after they started repeating the same questions.
