Having said all that, there's a difference between being pissed about the loss and not being OK with it, and acting as he did. And I don't care about the celebration in the background upsetting him either. You got beat. Badly. Deal with it. Be a man.

I have found Cam annoying all season (I hate the showboating -- maybe I am old school, but I miss Riggo and how when he used to score, he'd hand the ball to the refs). But the Superman nonsense? The dabbing? STFU and play football.

Well, for one thing, there's more than just guys born in the 1940's watching pro football. There's children of all ages, young people of all ages, and the celebrating is as much a part of the game as the field goals in their eyes. I personally think people should lighten up and not get so butt hurt over Cam Netwon (not referring to you Calia, just a general statement to the masses.) He dabs. He does his Superman thing. Who cares? Ickey Woods did his Ickey shuffle. The Fun Bunch did their group high five in the end zone. Some of the older Cowgirl receivers used to do their silly little six-shooter celebration in the endzone. Dez does his X-factor thing. You have some players who are low-key, others want to be seen. Such as in life. And of the most part, ol' Fig Newton has backed it up with a solid year. He's a good player.

I mean, maybe the fans should just do golf claps when their team scores instead of yelling and screaming and doing chest bumps? Sounds silly, right? Why not let the guys have fun? And come on, I'd be pretty bummed too if I just lost the Super Bowl. Unless your name is Tom Brady, who's to say your next chance to get back into the big show is within another year or so?
