Eminem Speaks With GQ Magazine
GQ
Eminem recently got into a conversation with GQ Magazine recently about his love for football and whom he thinks will make it to the Super Bowl.
Despite the fact that Eminem was born and raised in Detroit, the veteran rhyme-slinger is a major supporter of the Dallas Cowboys. “I hate to sound f—ing cliché, but I truly believe that Romo gives them the best chance to win,” he says. It’s very frustrating to watch them week in, and week out. They blew all those fourth quarter leads this year. Man, it’s hard to be a football fan. You get invested in your teams and it literally can ruin your entire f—ing week. And just for the record — I am a Lions fan first and foremost. But growing up as a kid, the Lions were so bad for so long, that I picked up another team in the Cowboys.”
He continued to say, “Cam Newton is no f—ng joke.” “I know everybody, before the season, had their doubts. They didn’t think he’d work in the NFL. But that kid is ill. His s— is crazy. He can pass and run, and do them both extremely well.”

Can’t go wrong with Joe Montana and Tom Landry.GQ: You’ve mentioned Marcus Allen, Michael Vick, and Ben Roethlisberger in songs before. When can we expect a Tebow lyric?Eminem: Who knows? A lot of things rhyme with Tebow, though, right?
