A few NFL players in the AFC have been with Cam Newton, according to a report from CBSSports.com. Apparently, Newton was a bit of a jerk during the Pro Bowl last season.
"He was a total —-hole," one AFC player said. "Who did he think he was? He acted like the big shit. Here he was at his first game and he acted like he was the star. Guys didn't like that."
It's not hard to imagine the story, given Newton's ability and rapid ascent to fame: of course he's going to be immature in some regards. It also makes sense as to why the AFC went after Newton in last year's Pro Bowl, even recording the only sack against Newton. But why wasn't that punishment enough? This behind-the-back anonymous sniping is weak. It was settled on the football field where it should have been. This noise is unnecessary.
