The most annoying fanbase in pro sports gets what they deserve

Nobody hates Russell Wilson, Seattle fans. Well, aside from maybe during a football game when the most ridiculous play ever happens and he’s on the positive end 99 times out of 100. That’s not why this is funny. This is funny because everyone hates you.

For a solid two weeks, ever since the Carolina Panthers bounced you from the playoffs with a historic 31 point first half explosion, you’ve taken to the internet to tweet through it, to post video blogs, or to pen letters to national sportswriters just to work through your feelings about your favorite team losing.

 

Look, truth be told, Panthers fans would probably be doing the same thing if the Seahawks had knocked Carolina out of the playoffs … again. But it’s the general tone of “right vs. wrong” and “classy vs. classless” that makes you the worst kind of fan in all of sports. All of your angst orbits one simple core belief that Russell Wilson is a better person than Cam Newton. Russell is genuine and humble, and Cam is flashy is self-serving. The punchline is that Cam’s flash and enjoyment of the game is far more likely to be genuine and come from a good place than the act that your quarterback puts on.

And yet none of you are in on the joke, which makes you the mark. So when stuff like this comes out, where your quarterback Googles how to tweet public compliments to his celebrity girlfriend, it’s hilarious. Not because it make Russell look silly. It just further confirms your role as the mark.

What Separates Cam Newton From Russell Wilson?

1 Comment

The Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks are scheduled for what should be one of the better NFL games on Sunday at 4PM important coast time, and there is no doubt that all of the focus will be on each team’s dynamic quarterback. Both have strong arms, both can be dangerous on the move, and both were kicked off of a college team before moving on to finish their careers elsewhere. While most will point to Wilson’s Superbowl ring as the trump card in the comparison of the two signal-callers, SportsChannel8 has uncovered rumors pointing to one milestone that Cam has reached that Russell has not … Ciara.

Multiple internet sources point to a weekend fling between Cam Newton and the R&B superstar in 2011 in Atlanta when the Panthers were in town to take on the Falcons. Reports say fans mobbed the couple as they were hitting their One, Two Step in the local clubs, and while there was never any confirmation of a relationship between the two, it’s safe to assume that a little Love Sex Magic was involved.

Russell Wilson went public with his relationship with Ciara earlier this summer, but added “I said to her, and she completely agreed, can we love each other without [sex]?” which roughly translates to “She said we weren’t going to have sex and I said ‘cool’ because she’ll eventually change her mind and oh my God I’m in the friend zone aren’t I?” Although, to be fair, it wouldn’t be the first time that Russell Wilson passed on an obvious opportunity to score.

When asked about her relationship with Wilson, Ciara said, “If you’re looking for the goodies keep on looking cause they stay in the jar.”
