Don’t hate on him when he wins. Hate on him when he loses. Thats what I do. Fortunately we have KC next week so you’ll have to wait. I have a love/hate attitude toward Cam. At least I pick my moments.

By the way, Redskins fans, I was at work and my iPhone sucks and I can’t comment anymore from it. Cam Newton is Better than RG3, we have been over this, go back to the game that proves it, uhhhh maybe when they played each other. RG3 didn’t even have a touchdown against the 1 win Panthers. Come on… get over it.

Is anyone more irrelevant than Rick Reilly?

It’s embarrassing when ESPN trots him out for those horrible forced spots because they paid him so much to leave Sports Illustrated.

Who was the executive who made that deal?

I used flip to the back of sports illustrated first……back when he was a real writer

He transferred from Florida to Auburn since Tebow had the starting job locked at Florida.

I don’t know. Newton has shown some real signs of immaturity when things have not been so good this year. He’s got a bit of Cutler in him.

Couldn’t agree more! You speak the absolute truth.. My question now is who the heck gave a thumbs down to the truth? Is Cam or Cecil visiting this website? If so… stop with the stupid Superman gesture after you score! You look Stupid and Immature!

Reilly’s articles, like tweets, make no sense.

There was a time where Rick Reilly’s column was a must-read for me. He’s awful now. I mean truly terrible. He’s probably the World Wide Leader’s most pathetic employee.

That effort to “break” the Ben Roethlisberger injury news was completely bizarre. The Pittsburgh media had it covered well before Reilly.

He walked into ESPN thinking he was the Alpha columnist, only to quickly learn that Bill Simmons was their top dog. He’s been flailing around ever since.

He also complained about this on the air, in one of the most passive-aggressive complaints I’ve ever seen.

Rick Reilly is the most annoying personality on ESPN…and that is a list that includes Skip Bayless, Trent Dilfer, Steve Young, Neil Everett, and Stephen A. Smith.

Reilly has pretty much qualified to be a fill-in host on “First Take”

I like the old Rick Reilly…you know, the one who actually made me want to read the back page of SI. I can’t tune this new Rick Reilly out quick enough.

I am not even a Panthers fan, but I have no respect for guys like Rick Reilly. Can’t stand to see them act like they are bigger than life and say whatever they are pleased about people. Who cares if Cam was last on the bus?

“Newton’s become an easy target, especially for people who made up their mind about him when he left Florida.”

So, was Newton the QB before or after Tim Tebow?

Used to really like Reilly but he’s become such a dink.

As Rick Reilly’s TV Presence has increased… his likability has decreased exponentially.

His niche was the back page of Sports Illustrated and he should have remained there.

Can we please stop quoting Rick Reilly? There is no person with a more inflated sense of relevance. I can’t understand why he’s interviewed by anyone.

Can’t stand Rick Reilly. It’s sick he’s won a ton of awards, I have no idea what for.

Could you at least have included who the heck Rick Reilly is?
