Insert black man for female and we have a national crisis. Sorry for the truth.

But he was right. **

Really ... how many of us like to hear a play by play female announcer for football? Not many.

Who cares? He doesn't seem to care anyway...even about football...last time he was on camera after a game he dressed like a pimp

Nevertheless, Laura Rutledge is obnoxious as well...even on Finebaum...not that she ain't easy on the eyes. Play by play by women just smacks of something...something happened

Looks like they have dug and found some old racist tweets by the reporter when she was in college. Might be about to get hard to find who is the victim.

I think it's hysterical. He just beat Tom Brady, but he's getting roasted. I don't understand why. He simply stated a fact. He should just tweet out "didn't mean to offend you, didn't realize it was that time of the month".

Exactly, which got ZERO coverage, nor did Odell's. (Odell's leg hiking got all the press)

17 Cam Newton. I haven’t listened to a word out of his moronic mouth in a long time. It’s hard to take someone seriously when they talk like an idiot and dress like a bigger one.

Hell I'd love for the women in my life to talk football. Instead of traditional marriage counseling, couples should bond by discussing why the deep side curl is so effective on the strong side against traditional cover 2. Or why Bama's pattern matching zone works so well and how to teach it at the high school level.

I've been anxiously awaiting Jemelle Hill to comment, but she is strangely slient. Guess sCam gets a pass from her on being sexist pig.

"In his autobiography, Silent Gesture,Tommy Smith stated that the gesture was not a "Black Power" salute, but a "human rights salute"."

Cam needs a black glove and use of the other hand to make it official.

If the female announcer knows her ****, I couldnt care less if she announces. For all the childish whining and bitching done on this board(and all over the internet) about how bad announcer X is or how biased announcer Z is, I am shocked that people dont want someone else to take a crack at announcing.
...well no, i guess i am not actually shocked since ive been here long enough to understand how absurd so many here are.


To apply it to sports in general- I think Doris Burke is an excellent basketball announcer for college AND NBA. She is experienced, knowledgeable, and can convey points(strategy, execution, etc) that arent typically brought up by other commentators. She also has the respect of players and coaches.

No reason why a woman cant announce/commentate on TV for any sport.

No issue with the Laura Rutledge types. In fact, they add something to the game from the sideline. Don't put 'em in the booth though.

As a panthers fan and former season ticket holder, everybody knows Cam is an idiot. It's similar to how nobody is shocked by anything South Park does these days because it's been going on for so long. Cam has been saying/acting stupid since college.

We don't agree on much

I guess you finally got one right**

She has people's respect because she is very good at her job. She got to where she is based on her hard work, long before there was any political push to put women in certain roles. I think she and Linda Cohn (sp) on sportscenter are two of the best, not just best women.

I’m not saying it wouldn’t have been great to have gotten Cam to State—but damn am I glad it’s Dak rather than him representing us in the NFL.
