Cam Newton, a character lacking character

Blithe Spirit 1 Minute

Can’t do better on the subject:

 

After his Carolina Panthers lost the Super Bowl on Sunday, NFL MVP Cam Newton pouted through the postgame news conference, giving petulant answers and walking out of the interview early.

Two days later, he doubled down, channeling his inner Donald Trump by saying, “Who likes to lose? You show me a good loser and I’m going to show you a loser.”

But losing this way makes you a loser.
