This thing has really blown up. Dannon apparently dropped him as sponsor.

I love seeing all the hot, blonde sports reporters outraged at the sexism (there are a couple hot brunette ones too).

This thread needs to be merged with the "People are Losing Their Minds" thread.

I do believe some people seek out the opportunities to be shocked and outraged. They live for it.

Exactly. I'll cop to hating on sCam ever since he got away with his dad whoring out his recruitment to Auburn in blatant violation of pay-for-play rules, but for anyone who's been paying attention this is hardly out of keeping at all with his bubble of self-absorption.

So NFL players are taking a knee and holding each others hands to make a stand for equality and then one of the poster children of the sport basically says women don't count in our fight for equality? Good move there superman!

Why pose this as one or the other? I'll agree 100% that he's very immature, but that doesn't mean he can't be, or isn't, sexist too.

Ha, that reminds me of the quote "Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity, but don't rule out malice."

Cool story, bro. We'll keep that in mind the next time you have your panties in a twist because poor ol' white guys just can't catch a break anymore with all the broads and coloreds popping off. Remind me which ones are the snowflakes again?

Was just watching the business channel and this topic came up. Two of the women on the panel got into a little argument about this, one saying he was just being a guy and the other explaining how would you feel if someone you were interviewing here po pooed your knowledge of stocks? And then the defender said we talk all the time how we know shit about sports, and the other says true but I don't assign that to all women. IT was fun to see a cat fight on the business channel. (Am I in trouble for saying cat fight?)

Me triggered? Hardly.

The mere fact that she doubled-down by asking him later, to which her reply was what he said later was way worse and providing no further details, tells me that she was all about making it about her (and her being offended). Writers/reporters need to learn from the zebras on the field - DON"T CALL ATTENTION TO YOURSELF!

Just collecting data points for a friend in another forum who is too shy to post here.

Of the folks who replied that: people are too easily offended, this is no big deal, suck it up buttercup, Cam did nothing wrong, some people are just looking to be offended, etc. Are you:
1) white male
2) non white male
3) white female
4) non white female
5) none of the above.

Thank you much. Again, just gathering data points for a friend - no horse in this race.

Well, I started the thread and did not say any of those things BTW, this whole incident has taken another turn. Apparently now, the journalist has apologized for some "racist" tweets a few years back, one including the super bad word.

I live in Charlotte and am not particularly a fan. However, Cam does a lot for the community beyond the basic team PR stuff. Some of it is well publicised which you can be cynical about, and some of it isn't. That should be considered when making broad judgemental statements about the guy.

Cat fight?!?!

Cat fight?!?!

I believe Websters defines it as when two women are within arms length proximity, and they disagree on a particular topic, what ensues afterwards is often referred to as a "cat fight". Look it up, its in the dictionary.

My wife was a sports reporter in the early 90's. She took a lot of crap and gave it right back. Glad social media wasn't around then.

I meant it more like...



Ye ye cat fight!

Have you actually watched It? It wasn't awkward, it was asshole.

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

I think you're trying really hard to be outraged by her behavior.

You are the one who's upset, not me. And I reject the words you seem to be trying to put in my mouth. They represent neither what I said nor how I feel. There is a racist in this story though -- hint: it's the reporter.

^^^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^^^^

Yup she will probably be out of a job soon although the SJW will be confused because it was misogyny by an athlete but she's a racist, so is he the victim or is she?

Really? Is she? She made fun of the fact that her dad tells racist jokes, and she retweeted something from a parody account that had the n-word in it.

Not sure that makes her a racist.

You don't understand how SJW works. Off to the reeducation camp with you.
