    lol
    its jus the fact that dude know why folks compare the two
    cuz they are big sec qb's who are black
    they dont compare him to any other tall sec qb's
    jus jamarcuss

    but when he finally got to why he stumbled to say black and jus said tall instead


    gtfoh rich eisen,
    we know what you meant

    but maybe he jus didnt wanna sound racist.
    you know damn near everything can be racist nowadays(word to 2012)

    but if he woulda jus told the truth and been like "they compare newton to russel because they are both AA qb's from SEC schools" i wouldnt even be mad.
    cuz thats the truth

    he jus made an ass out of himself for avoiding it

    but he did give newton props by saying he is way ahead of jamarcuss and you shouldnt compare them

    they also give black players props by bringing up dirt

    "his mother was a drug addict who worked 3 jobs. the kid was raising his bastard siblings at the age of 6. thats a real leader"

    like what
    thats the best compliment you got???

    oh no
    im not complaining at all

    im jus sayin its silly for rich eisen to bring that ? up and not go full circle with it

    and its silly how espn & nfl network was doubting him
    but
    now he lookin all professional during the interview(shittin on mallet's interview)
    and being all poise during the drills & they wanna crown him

    thats jus silly to me.
    how you gonna get enamored by an interview and a 40 time but doubt a season with 50 total td's

    Because its obvious (from history) that collegiate success does not always equate to pro success.

    your right
    i honestly think that when it comes to offensive players the draft is a crapshoot

    combine results and collegiate stats cant be definite when determining pro results
    but i feel you shouldnt put one over the other

    if its nothin to discount a guy's ncaa stats because "thats college' then it should be nothing to discount his interview because "its jus prepared rhetoric"

    im pretty sure percy harvin told them gm's he was done with weed,
    im pretty sure jamarcus russel told them gm's he neva touched lean,

    and im sure cam gonna tell them all he is a born leader while flashing his million dollar grin

    Comparing Cam to Russell is like comparing MJ to Stackhouse.
