What are people's thoughts on this?? Cam seems to be a guy that's either loved or hated by fan bases. The lady who wrote a letter complaining about him disrespecting their "12th Man" flag by wadding it up and throwing it needs to lighten up. This isn't an American flag we are talking about. Yes, you can say your flag stands for a fan base that backs the team and takes pride in giving back to the community with charity work. Ok, anyone who gloats or embellishes the fact that they do community service work may not be doing it for the right reasons. We are talking about a bitter fan base that just lost. Plus, Cam has done charity work in the past. They've done make-a-wish too. If seattle had won that game, no one would say anything, let alone Cam winning the MVP or moving on to the NFC title game. On another note, lets talk about the person who gave him the flag as he's parading around celebrating. What did they expect? A signature? People look for reasons to complain. Society needs to lighten up, take a joke or two and gain their sense of humor back. Everyone seems to become offended too easily nowadays.
This story brings me back to the Iowa fans insulted and offended from the Stanford band. Win that game and you think they would laugh a little from it??
