Good.
Glad the organization took that step. Sounds like Cam had a brisk talking to as well.

It was a piece of personal memorabilia he was going to have signed by Packers players and hang up in his man cave; it was no different than holding a 12 flag or a jersey and waiting for the players to come out for warm-ups to autograph.
How do you know the Packer players would have signed it? Did they send out a press release?253hawk":2nw8q2lc said:It was a vinyl sign, or whatever they make those things out of.

His first down dance is just about the most annoying thing in the NFL, right up there with Kaeps bicep kiss and Russ' god talk.
He also in the past has shown terrible field demeanor during tough times.
Carolina hasnt faced much adversity yet this year. We may soon see if Cam has taken the next step in his maturity.
They've faced a lot of adversity this year. Again, Benjamin and Alexander out for the year. The highest paid player by far, Johnson, out until Thanksgiving. Kuechly, Lotulelei, Allen, Short, Davis, Thompson, Kalil, Norwell, Cotchery, Klein, et al have all been on the injury report or missed games. The games @CLink and vs the Colts and Packers showed different degrees of overcoming adversity late.
Cam's calendar year 2014 should erase all doubt in his ability to overcome adversity.
adversity like sherm and earl being idiots and letting olsen run unblocked for a wide open TD? I could have made that read 100/100 times.....

I dont see outrage as much as fans calling out Cam for continuing to be immature.
Question though- you would have no problem with an NFL player destroying $500 worth of your possessions because you committed the crime of being a fan in an opposing stadium? What if you had draped a couple of authentic hawk jerseys over a rail and a player came by, tore em down and ripped them up. You ok with that?
If the fan and the sign was disrespectful, your outrage over the outrage would at least hold some ground.

I'm not stupid enough to go to an opposing team's stadium and do things like that.
EDIT: If anything, I'd expect a home team fan to have ripped it up.

I fail to see how holding a respectful sign that states that you are a fan of the opposing team is any different than walking in decked out in your teams gear.

Wearing a jersey and displaying a gigantic sign in the front row for the entire stadium to see are two completely different things IMO. I would be pissed off as hell if I was a season ticket holder and an opposing fan laid out that massive sign right in front of where I sit. Keep that for your stadium.

The fact that it was a Green Bay sign in a stadium not named Lambeau Field automatically makes it inflammatory in that scenario.
