[blockquote cite=”Cam Newton” type=”left”]”I want to talk about the Donkey Kong situation. The initial statement came with me jokingly making a reference to him. It’s sad that in this day and age we still bring up racism. That was not my initial reason.I play a lot of video games in my spare time, and if I’m not playing with the Panthers, I’m playing with Megatron and the Lions. The name came from me having a lot of sacks with my brother, so when I got a lot of text messages with ‘why were you saying that, it’s a racial slur’ and this and that.That was not meant to be anything derogatory towards Ndamukong Suh. I respect him as a person. If anything I was trying to say it as a compliment of him wrecking havoc. Me going forward I should have called him ‘Wreck It Ralph.’It was just out of my respect for him. It won’t happen again. Poor judgment of words but all in all today was a great win for us. It was a great team win. We needed that especially in front of our fans and it was great to get a win in front of Bank of America Stadium.”[/blockquote]
