SUPER CAM

[Patler]

Badgering? It sounded like a few were feeding him the answers as part of their questions to help the guy out when he went into his shell.

Well maybe at first. Still Chris Harris JR was being interviewed feet away within earshot of Cam, and was asked about Denver's game plan.....which consisted of loading the box, man outside, and forcing cam to beat them with his arm. Now was it badgering? Maybe not. But I would bet they were more interested in getting a negative reaction from him than any insight.
Cam definitely could have handled the adversity better....I'm just pointing out that shunning your opponent is much more of a bitch move than shunning the media.

In the world of the multi-billion dollar NFL, which will make Cam Newton extraordinarily rich, all due to the publicity and fame that grows out of the publicity the NFL gets, I don't think that is true.

I agree the media stunt is more impactful (and probably more of a concern to the League and team) but ignoring the opponent probably raises more flags for the players.

I'm not sure what you mean, but typically you pay a steeper price for cutting off the media because - they're the media, they don't like it, and they can do something about it. If you act like a jerk towards your opponent it isn't gonna get much exposure, unless it's routine and egregious. I can't even think of an example where a player suffered much for 'shunning' opponents. Maybe Terrell Owens, but he was a cock to everyone.

Just stating my opinion that not acknowledging the opposing qb postgame is more classless. Completely agree that shunning the media is more directly detrimental. But with Cam.under the microscope I'm quite sure him stiffing Peyton postgame would have been a pretty big deal.
