To pundits such as ESPN’s Skip Bayless and former Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher, Newton’s dancing was shameful showboating that has no place in the NFL. Newton is known for dabbing, a dance so uncomplicated, it makes the Macarena look like Puppetry of the Penis. They’ve been pitted against each other by the media for months now - Cam’s a young black man who dances when he scores a touchdown and Peyton’s an old school white guy who doesn’t do a whole lot when he scores, mainly because it looks like it hurts to turn his head or blink. If you watched it in person or tuned in on NFL Network, you probably did so only because you wanted to hear from Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton and his opposing number on the Broncos, Peyton Manning. The only press conference I’d ever pay to attend would be the hypothetical one that would be held if Abba reunited, but God bless those brave souls who coughed up $25 to see Greg Olsen pick bagel crumbs out of his beard.
