Seen snippet on IG. I ran to YT!! Glad to see someone who was in the locker room speak to how great of a person Cam was!! I always hated that none of the panthers came to his defense when the media tried to slander him just for being himself. Never got in trouble off the field and gave his blood sweat and tears to our organization. What team wouldn’t want a QB like that!! 💪🏿National champion, Heisman winner, #1 pick, set rookie records, multiple pro bowls, all pro, MVP and SB appearance. Any parent who had a son would sign up for their sun to have that type of career. It’s insane that people talk down on Cam’s career.
Same lol
It’s bad how some have down
talked Cam! But, we still love him! I feel Many in the Patriots Media didn’t respect or appreciate Cam. Cam gave all he could to Patriots. They put too much on him, and not enough help. 8 players left Cam by himself. It was bad. Cam was strong in dealing with all that, too.
He had 2 mean haters in The Carolinas Media against him, but, many others did help him, too. I’m thankful to them for it! 💕🙏💪🏼👏🏼✔️🤟
Greg Olsen did. The only one and that's a damn shame.
Thanks Timothy
Fact
Man is a character!! Always had the locker room laughing. Play 3 years with him at GT. I’m extremely proud of him! Keep going Lou! Man they brought back memories with the cut throat life of the NFL!
Salute
Shout out to Lou Young and you Orwin Smith. I appreciate all the entertainment from section 207, at Bobby Dodd. I roll with the white, blue, and gold win, lose, or draw.

Auntie Tanya somewhere telling everybody to go watch Cholly sit down with Cam 😂😂
I can hear her voice now! 😆
@@venessamoon3741 right 😂😂😂😂
You know it!! 😆😆😆 Uh Huh!!! 😂😂
I have so much respect for Cam intellectually!
I just found out who Lou is by watching Auntie Tonya! 😅. Lou is hilariously funny!! 😂😂. Uncle Charlie…
Had no idea he was in the NFL. I’m certain he had the entire team laughing win or lose 😊
Continued blessings to Cam and Lou! ❤❤
That jacket!! As A true 80’s and early 90’s house head, represent!
Wow.. didn't know Lou played Pro Ball. Just hearing his NFL journey... reminds me how much I cringe when I hear a brother who makes it in the league.. and then just throw it away with poor decisions!!!! They see how hard it is to make it in & they take it for granted.
Cam really a real one! Appreciate all them positive affirmations bro keep going!
S/O to Lou 🗣️ You Gotta Put That Back foot 😂😂😂😂😂
man you got uncle charlie up in here!!! i love to see it! i had no idea but i'm loving the life. i absolutely love lou he's real good energy so this is nice to see
I would love to hear more about 2015 year. You don't get enough credit for that! It was cool to hear Lou perspective!
I love this one. Lou is a real one and so is Cam! I met Cam at the Kentucky Derby in the millionaires club last year and he is so down to earth, will take his time and talk to ya. Take pics, give advice etc… this is a real one dope interview!
Man I never knew Lou was in the league but uncle Cholly does give off some athletic vibes 😂 this guy is so humble and funny
LOU HAS A NATURAL UNCLE VIBE LOL
Lou has been a highlight for my life recently, like 2 years ago. To switch it up and be successful is a light. I wish i saw some highlights from his ass but his vids are the best highlights ever lol.
Lou everywhere great vibe between u guys should definitely do this again.
It’s nothing like having your food ready and prepped and turn on CZcams and see this interview. Gods Plan🤌🏾
I really enjoyed the show. Keep up the fantastic work. ONE LOVE!

This episode is right on time ... lol Hey, Lou
Salute to Lou. I’m from DC. Super inspirational. Super funny
Lou so damn funny i love this interview 😂😂 i never knew his football history either that's dope of cam
Nigga that year in Charlotte was so crazy and lit boy it’s been nothing like it and Charlotte was on the come up.
Don’t say the N Word, man!
It’s very inappropriate! 😞😱
CHARLIEEEEEEEE. I LOVE HIM!!!!! HE SO NICE!!!!!!! I met him at a high school game. Pleasant, kind and funny!!!!
I did not know Lou was in the NFL !!!❤
As a Panthers fan I love this
Cam you are unique! Keep up the good work.
Glad to see Cam has a new hobby. Maybe his podcast will become just a lucrative as a starting NFL QB position.
In my opinion that's what made Brady the goat.. he was throwing the ball to those guys that don't get media attention but add solid contributions.
I love this show No format it seems, wherever energy takes you...Cam keep doing your thang.
This was so awesome! Panther fan since 1994!!!
SHLOUUUU....this man is a multitalent, urban legend!!!!
Cam need to bring some old Carolina teammates on. Especially Greg Olsen and Derek Andersen.
You and mike vick was my role model bro ,i literally had that same swag yall had and i was left handed throwing bombs , i miss it
Man, what a time to be alive... I was a lefty QB and rocked #7 all thru high school because of Vick...graduated in '09 and saw Cam ball out in '10 was amazing. Culpepper is who mad me want to be a QB, but the things Vick was doing from VT to ATL was insane and I was a scrambler so i quickly picked up his style.
I love it! You are on Cam Newton couch. Congratulations.❤❤
This was a good one!
My cousin was practice squad with the panthers too when Cam was there. Said cam was pretty cool
Y'all are some talented men...
Tryna see Lou on Wild N’ Out ❤
