For the second time in his estimable NFL career, free-agent quarterback Cam Newton finds himself in justified hot water after making denigrating comments about women. Appearing on Barstool Sports’ “Million Dollaz Worth of Game” podcast last Sunday, Newton had a lot to say about the “proper” roles of women in today’s society.
“I had a perfect, a perfect example of what a man was in my life by my father,” Newton said. “My parents have been together for 36, 37 years now and it’s a beautiful thing I grew up in a three-parent household: my mom, my father and my grandmother and I knew what a woman was, not a bad [expletive], a woman.”
Newton was happy to elaborate when asked the difference between a woman and a bad [expletive].
