Does Peyton also need to grow up? Because he ran off the field without shaking anyone's hand after losing to the Saints.
And reportedly skipped a team party after the Super Bowl win.
Ha, gimme a break. 2/3s of players skip these. I'm friendly with a Seahawks players best friend, who partied with the team after they waxed the Broncos. He said that there were about a dozen players there for longer than a photo op. A 39 year old with a big family + just played his last game after a monumental career with a team that's barely 'his' team = little interest in clubbing with a bunch of 25 year olds.
Like I said...double standard.

Manning as much as I hate him doesn't taunt anyone on the field. He was given a pass because most of the time he is a class act and takes the criticism even if he wants to go home.
Load the box, force y’all to throw the ball. Can you throw the football?” Harris is heard saying from his press conference. “That was the game plan.”
That wasn't an insult and it wasn't hurled at him. It was overheard from an adjacent interview. And seriously, that's going to make you get up and run away ? Man up, Superman

Well said

He wore a sweatshirt and gave short, to the point answers. Completely fine and understandable. A white head coach can do the same thing and it's somehow endearing. I have no explanation other than racism and I am so sick of the double standard applied against African American quarterbacks.
Please read or reread The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
You lose credibility fast when you attribute everything to oh yeah it's racism!
Not talking about "everything." Just this.

Could the word "presser" be any stupider? What moron invented that word? Up there with "hack."

I don't think it's racism to criticize Cam. It was obvious that the media has been in fact bending over backwards to glorify Cam, not trying to take him down.
I personally loved what happened to Cam in the Super Bowl. His position has always been that if you don't like his talking or dancing, stop him. Wish granted.
Having said that, I am empathetic to his situation during the presser. He had been on the receiving end of an epic beatdown, was probably physically hurting, and had just had the worst day of his professional life. My guess is he will look back on it and wish he had that one back. His conduct was not good, of course, but it is largely understandable.

That boy was behaving like a little bitch on the field, too, towards the end of the game.
