Moon trashes 'racially biased' criticism of Cam Newton

    The title of this thread should be: Moon's racial bias prevents him from commenting objectively on Newton's draft prospects.

    Talented quarterback in his day. Bitter, prejudiced man today.

    . . . not to mention Moon's current position within Cam's PR regime . . .

    In its own separate way, this is no less pathetic than the guys who lined up beside Tebow for unsubtle personal/professional reasons . . . such as Sam Wyche.

    Maybe some of this criticism is merited.

    I mean, I'm not saying that getting caught stealing, being kicked out of school, allegedly serving as the linchpin in a pay-for-play scheme and being stumped by the Wonderlic are reasons to give scouts pause.

    Oh, wait. Yea, I am. Guess I'm with Mizzou on this one.

    I take credit for straightening you out about your post. It was foolish of me to respond to your post in the first place.
    Back to the topic, yes, Moon is bitter and he has a right to be, despite his stellar career. I happen to see some of his points. I can also see some of the points made by others. I just made an opinion. You don't have to agree with it.

    So, I think we've come to an informed consensus, here.

    Moon was racially profiled. Newton might be right now, but it's hard to say since he's done so much to shoot his image in the foot already.

    Go team.

    Were Jeff Garcia and Kurt Warner racially profiled as well?

    Still making a fool of yourself, I see.

    I'll give you that Moon has good reason to be bitter about his own career. Newton is a different story, which numerous people have explained here in good detail. If you still can't figure out that part, then you have your eyes shut and your fingers in your ears -- in other words, exactly what you accuse everyone else of. And that's why you are a fool.

    I know this might be semantics, but, I think in a free society, you're entitled to believe whatever the hell you want. You're just not entitled to ACT on every belief you have. We might hate someones beliefs, but they're entitled to have them.... just not act on all of them.

    I agreed with you on the stuff involving Moon himself. You're wrong on the stuff involving Newton.

    I never wrote anything about Newton. Check the posts. I agreed on what Moon said.
