The general consensus from Cam’s appearance on Letterman last night was that he was perfect, while the Top Ten he was given to read was found wanting. In true ‘Blogler style (with help from @jefoster), I asked the Twit-Fam to send me what they should have given the Cam-inator to read. Of course, I promised a prize (Chad Gibbs’s God & Football) to what I thought was the best.
Most sent a better Top Ten (or five) from the category that was given (Top Ten things Cam Newton can say now that he’s the Heisman Trophy winner):
Randall M:
10. Urban Myer told me leaving UF would be detrimental to his health.
9. Thayer Evans did catch his wife writing me love letters.

5. It’s hard out here for a pimp… just ask Kenny Rogers.

3. Better hide yo Luck, hide yo James, and hide yo Moore..cause I’m winnin er’thang up in here.
2. People say I blew off an interview with FOX. If anyone is blowing FOX, its Thayer Evans.
1. Nick Saban spanked Greg McElroy when he discovered he was spending his practice time trying to uncover the recipe for Cammy Cam Juice.
Paige L:
5. Hey Kellen your girlfriend called and she wants to break up…its not you its me.
4. Does Mark Ingram even count?

5. Hey Joe Schad, where’s your source now?
4. I was too good for Blinn JC, let’s be honest.
3. Oregon, more like Boregon. LaMichael is going to LaLose.
2. I didn’t want Bianchi’s vote anyway. He sounds like a hoarse parrot.
1. Best decision my dad ever made…(was having me)
Aubrey W:
10. I’m very sorry – I thought Nick Saban was the ball boy.
9. I spent a season sharing a locker room with Tim Tebow, and believe me, Tim Tebow is no Cam Newton.

2. It is impossible to use the words “champions” and “Starkville” in the same sentence.
1. #2!
