11 Reasons Why We Love Cam Newton

Right now, Cam Newton is a common household name and a crowd favorite in the NFL. He’s a freakishly amazing athlete, phenomenal quarterback, and a class act all the time. These qualities are small components of what makes Cam Newton so great, but here are just a couple of reasons why we love him so much.

1. Whenever he gets a touchdown, he gives the ball to a child in the stands

It's always so great when athletes are able to connect with their fans and do things that will leave a lasting and memorable impression on them. Cam Newton giving a child a football after he scores a touchdown makes this kid not only feel special but strengthen his allegiance and support for him as a player.

2. His outfits are always on point

I think that this one really speaks for itself.

3. He Led Auburn to a National Championship in the 2010-2011 season

This was an amazing end to his collegiate football career and shows what an integral component and member he was to the team.

4. He led the nation with 50 total touchdowns during the 2010-2011 season

This just shows how much of a beast he is.

5. He was the first SEC player to pass for 2,000 yards and rush for 1,000 yards in a season

Again, this stresses how much of a phenomenal athlete and player Cam Newton is.

6. He is a Heisman trophy winner

7. In his professional football career, he led the Carolina Panthers to an almost perfect regular season, except for their single loss to the Falcons

They had a tremendous run while it lasted.

8. Was NFL Rookie of the Year in 2011

He just shattered numerous amounts of NFL records and proved that he was here to stay and to make a statement.

9. First quarterback in NFL history to throw for 30 touchdowns and rush for 10 in the same season

He's just so good at what he does.

10. Great touchdown dance

This is one of the more lighthearted parts about football, where the athletes are really able to show their personalities through their touchdown dances.

11. Gives back to the community through his foundation, the Cam Newton Foundation

This just shows that there's more to him than just football. He truly wants to make a difference in the community where he's from as well as where he now plays professionally. There are three main categories that go into the foundation, Every1 Learns, Every1 Plays and Every1 Gives which really encompass a wide variety of needs including athletic and academic programs, community outreach, and charitable give back programs.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
