In a world with so many classless people he joined that class long ago. I’ve never heard anything very noble about him. Now he melts down bigtime and those who might have been rooting for him, he turned them into detractors with his lack of humility.
It’s bad enough this “superman” sulked out of the presser, but that replay of him not jumping on the fumble shows lack of heart. Brady, Wilson, Brees, either Manning, so many other QBs would have surely went for it, and it looks like he had a good shot at recovering.
I have no sympathy for him.
I don’t enjoy people that don’t have humility. If he showed class, I would have felt for him. I just don’t enjoy cocky jerks who pout when things don’t go their way.
Russell Wilson was 26 last year during the Super Bowl... compare his post game conference to Newton’s..
Wilson suffered a devastating interception that ended the game, but showed class and character after.
I would take Wilson over Newton any day of the year, though the NFL is trying to force Newton as the future face of the league.
