My birthday was within the last few days and I just now found out that my 11 year old son emptied his piggy bank to get me my Cam Newton jersey (thought my wife bought it). Granted, it is the cheap one but how can I complain when someone that makes $5 a week in allowance gets me a present like this? I let him get on here, on the Huddle with me after I have filtered the "good stuff" but he is a true Panther fan and I had to give him an off-season post of his own. He set up and took the picture of the jersey and told me to post it tonight so I am doing it.
Bwood, Ivantheawesome and JtGreensboro, you guys are his favorites posters (no offense to you other guys).
He has become so excited about football because of this surge in Panthers popularity that he has informed me that he is going out for football this up-coming school year (he has always played baseball exclusively before now). He is pretty big so I hope he makes the team.
His mother and I paid him back btw, so now his Pig-account is back to over a C-note but I just thought it was cool and he deserved a shout out.
I know many of you will flame me but if you are a father that gets a $100 jersey from your kid, you would understand.

Ah man that's really sweet. Not a father but I know that shows how much he cares and looks up to you. Best of luck with making the team, no matter what I know he'll make you proud. Keep pounding little man, can't wait till you're old enough dear ol' Dad will let you have an account and come post with the big boys.

Thanks guys. Argus, he ain't never seen Pulp Fiction (with good reason) but he asked why Mace Windu is shooting a pear. He thinks it has something to do with annoying orange. lol.

On this episode of "How to raise your children correctly"....

Damn fine birthday gift you got there.

[pantherclaw]

That is awesome!

I am a father. my almost twenty month old, and my adopted twelve year old. I'd never expect (nor want) them to spend their earned money on me.
so i can understand the shock. surprise, and pride you must feel!

congrats!

He loves the Panthers. He is obsessed now. And that jersey will never get thrown away. Like every father should think, I think he is the greatest kid ever. It was 3 days after the fact I found out he bought it on his own. I have to admit I cried a little. Not because of the jersey but because he gave all he had to buy it. I think I will keep him.

That's cool man, I love getting the kids involved. My niece was with me for the 4th and she said the American flag had "Red, White, and Panther Blue"

Thanks brother. I don't deserve it but I just about fell out when my wife explained the whole process to me. He gets the same treatment from me when we go to our first game, he just doesn't know it yet.

I always thought kids hated me. Your son has now confirmed it. Thank you.

Mace Windu is shooting that pear cause it won't stop saying wut. I hope I'm not the only one that notices the giraffes in the background.
