Former NFL player Bill Romanowski still hasn't learned to keep his mouth shut.
After Panthers quarterback Cam Newton aburptly walked out on his postgame press conference, Romanowski tweeted: "You will never last in the NFL with that attitude. The world doesn't revolve around you, boy!"
Romanowski's use of the word "boy" â a racially inflammatory term â was met with heavy criticism, including from some African-American athletes.
Chad "Ocho Cinco" Johnson tweeted at Romanowksi, "Boy? You never watched Good Times Bill?"

Former Bengals cornerback Rico Murray added, "Cam needs to bite the bullet and take what's coming. But @billromanowksi is a disgrace."

Could have been worse, he could have Tweeted, “Now go home and get your bleeping shinebox, Cam.”
When Bill picked off Kordell Stewart he ran up to him and tried to give him the ball back. That was sweet LOL.
Eat it Cam.
Screw that hype chaser rap crap.
The old pocket passer hard working smart quarterback wins again!
LOL, good choice of graphic!
Those are all men. Newton is a child, regardless of age.
Obama is also a child and Trump seems to be a teenager.
I’ve skipped them since 2011. There were a couple of stinkers before that, but that one sealed it. Halftime is for refilling my drink, helping the boss with anything she needs, etc.
He is also one of the toughest SOBs I've ever met. I could tell stories.
I really don't think he gives a crap about what people think of what he says.
Why did he apologize then?
Neither the military nor the civilian world has any big trouble with getting 26 year old males to be men and to act like men. The military, unsurprisingly, makes the matter easier to quantify. Newton’s behavior cannot be excused on account of his age.
Sane people know what he meant. I’m white, and I just told my son yesterday, “Don’t get an attitude with me, boy!”
I guess I’m racist toward my white child? Ignorant race baiters disgust me.
I like your profile page BTW.
He is a boy. He’s only 26, and in today’s world, 26 year olds still live with their folks, drive their mom’s car and have full time jobs of around 25 to 32 hours a week, don’t date, certainly aren’t married. And he’s a typical immature pro athlete shielded from any repercussions coming from bad decisions.
It’s a generational thing, not a racist thing.
That’s why I say he is still young at 26 and that’s why he walked off from his post game interviews that he will be “handled” into making good and have a great career.
By the MSM, inner city negro thugs are called teens well into their 20s.
I don't think it's really either. Russell Wilson is Cam's age. Contrast their two post-game interviews-in-defeat and the difference you see isn't generational, and it isn't race either, it's pure character.
It is character, and there are many young people who have character at that age. Our military comes to mind.
I live in a university town and see a lot of our nation’s young people and they are a bitter disappointment! We moved here from the Hollywood area of LA and I suppose the exposure to younger people in that area has tainted my opinion as well.
The immaturity is appalling.
30, maybe even 35, is the new 20.
The SuperBowl Half-time show was a tribute to Black Power, however, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Black Panthers, who succeeded about as well as the Carolina Panthers. Beyonce’s fake cartridge belt may have contained a few actual cartridges, minus their primers. The large X that the 50 black women in paramilitary uniforms and black berets formed, of course, honored Malcolm X, the racist white-hater. Was the conventional US media silent on this? Then go read the British press!
Yes, or n***a or ho, as either of those are acceptable by blacks when referring to them, per their public standards.
LOL. The “b” word !
if one adds a “slap” sfx to that gif, it will exemplify the glass jaw- ness of cam newton.
GOOD!
