Cam corrected himself in the conversation afterward saying he should have said all reporters.

He said he maybe should have but it still doesn't mean it wasn't a sexist comment.

I just don't get why we constantly have to make excuses for guys who should know better.

Should Cam Newton really know better?

Plus it's all really just been a chance to mock leash's "insanely offensive" line.

I couldn't sleep last night, just thinking about his comments.

I am no fan of Cam so I really don't care. I just thought I read he tried to correct himself to her afterward. As for your question I will ask another. Why does every misstep by a young guy have to be taken to Geneva Conventions levels?

I'm with Cam on this one.
She was obviously trying to get her name out to the national media and used Cam's response to do it. He didn't say anything that demeaning to women. He even corrected his choice of words and replaced it with "reporters" talking about routes. He then went on to explain why "reporters" do not recognize a route the same way a QB on the team would.

She still would not let go of her left wing agenda and went all Julie on his ass. “Jourdan Rodrigue, Charlotte Observer,” she said, and then walked away."

I think you guys are giving reporters credit for being a lot smarter than they actually are .

I won't be able to understand this until you make a meme out of it with no more than 10 words, seven of which must be no longer than three letters.

When I want to hear a woman talk business, it's Becky Quick on Squawk Box. Every damn morning.

“You can't say that to me!, I'm Jourdan Rodrigue, Charlotte Observer,” she said, and then walked away.

Reminds me of Tom Hanks line in "League of our Own" where he says that girls aren't ballplayers. Girls are who you sleep with after games, not for playing in games. As much as the percentage of women who might talk about wide receivers routes, it is a fair statement. Probably VERY few women he might encounter would talk about routes. but this was said by a female reporter who was covering the team and obviously it is her job to know about these things, so it was stupid. But I can see where it could be an innocent comment. She might have been the only female in the room and the first to ever bring up routes to him.

This is a bad thought, Wall Paper Steve.

Well, she deserved it.

I'm sure that it's water off of a ducks back for him but apparently Dannon yogurt cut ties with him over this .
