Stop #($^%$** Apologizing

I've been inactive and have a bunch of stories to get to (including Tom Petty's passing) but just had to make a quick comment about Cam Newton.

I don't think what he said was that bad and he ended up answering the question. Sure, he was taken aback (and to be fair, the reporter was trying too hard) and may have been a little fresh and rude but methinks it's much ado about nothing and a lot to do about the sorry, stupid times we live in. Notably the faux-outrage, overly sensitive world created by political correctness. But it wasn't sexist.

Jourdan (funny how ESPN is silent about her racist tweets in the past. Not that anyone should make more of it than it is given it was a while back) needs to ‘woman up’ and take the punches. She wants to be a professional? Then don’t go cry to Twitter about an athlete saying something mean to you. You want to be seen as an ‘equal’? Then act like you’re equal.
Until then, you just proved to be ‘just like a woman’. You don’t see Ann Coulter apologizing or whining about her treatment, right? Ironically, Coulter is the one showing how you should behave in the face of criticism. Women sports journalists shouldn’t overplay the ‘woe is us’ behaviour. 
Athletes and coaches talk like this to journalists – including MEN – all the time. Look up Tortorella and Brooks for example.
The only way this is going to subside and reverse itself is by stopping to give it so much attention. Stop being offended so often and for such things.

As if male reporters never faced offensive athletes and coaches. Sports history is littered with it. But a women awkwardly asks a strange question to which an athlete reacts honestly and we act like the world ends.

Please. Are you tough and professional or not Jourdan? You can't whine each time some athlete says something you feel is inappropriate. And to be perfectly honest, outside the liberal media bubble, he's kinda right. So take this as a learning lesson and move on.

I don't give a shit if someone reading thinks this is 'sexist'. The left lives in an 'alt-realitty' where we're all misogynist, racist and white privileged if we don't toe their shitty line. 

You can't say anything anymore lest the perpetual outrage machine hunts you down. It's becoming unbearable. Keep this up and we're never going to see anyone in their natural state because they're going to be too damned afraid to speak.

Cam should not have apologized and everyone should just pipe down at this point because this is 'file under jump the shark'.

And this thing of apologizing for past things is even more offensive and retarded.

STOP FUCKEN APOLOGIZING.
