Bill Romanowski Apologizes For Calling Cam Newton “Boy”
Following his tough loss to the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 50, Cam Newton was understandably unhappy during his post-game interview and tapped into his inner Marshawn Lynch.
When the MVP cut his interview short, former NFL player Bill Romanowski took to his Twitter page to scolded Cam for his poor attitude and referred to him as “boy.”
The Twitterverse instantly swooped down on Bill and called him out for crossing the line.

Bill Romanowski, who spit in an opponent's face, has the audacity to lecture Cam about his attitude. Have a stadium full of seats, BOY.

Hey @billromanowski, did you "last in the NFL" due to human growth hormones? Back the hell up off of @CameronNewton https://t.co/HTZiLam2vI

Bill attempted to smooth things over with this tweet:
Calm down everyone! I meant he needs to grow up!
— Bill Romanowski (@billromanowski) February 8, 2016
When that didn’t work, he issued an apology.
I apologize for that remark 'boy'. It was not intentional or even trying to disrespect others. Peace everyone.

The irony of him degrading Cam for having a bad attitude…
Stephen A. Smith also called Cam out for his attitude:
Oh Damn! @CameronNewton just got up and walked off the podium. Totally understand! But you still can't do that. You just can't.#ManUP

I’m sure he’s going to have a mouthful on “First Take” on Monday.
