I'm guessing bama.com (al.com) will focus on "he nearly took my son's finger off" part...probably headline it with CAM ALMOST KILLS A CHILD AS HE STEALS A GREEN BAY PACKERS SIGN....Auburn and Cam's former OC Gus Malzahn are currently under NCAA investigation for allowing this type of thuggery to happen.
"It was a Green Bay banner in Bank of America Stadium," Newton answered. "It just doesn't match. No disrespect to any Green Bay Packer. There it's just a respect thing. We take pride in having an edge playing in Bank of America Stadium, playing in front of the Carolinas each and every week. It's something that I feel it's my due diligence to protect this house. As a gesture of tearing down the sign, it wasn't just about tearing down the sign -- it was the respect. We played in Green Bay last year and I didn't see no 'This is Panther Country' signs in their stadium. I don't know why, but yet I was passing, the sign was dangling, either somebody was going to take it off or I take it off. Like I said, it's no disrespect to nobody. It's more of a respect to the stadium that it is. We all know gangs, we all know territories, we all know businesses. You're not about sit up there and sell a Whopper at no McDonald's. That's the gist of the story."
If the fool truly paid $500 for a vinyl sign -- and used s trademarked logo without permission -- he deserves to have his finger ripped off. And shoved sideways up his ass. I will be disappointed if they make cam apologize or have to meet with that asshole.
