  1. My reason for choosing Jersey Mikes is their MONTH OF GIVING. Pick your state,, see the charities Jersey Mike is giving to. https://www.jerseymikes.com/mog/charities . When you see N C , you'll see one of the larger, or largest is the over $417,000 given to UNC Health Fitch Family Comprehensive Pediatric Rehabilitation Program . Jersey Mike has given over 1 million dollars to this program. North Carolina didn't have a pediatric rehab facility when my grandson was hit by a car 2 years ago. He had to be transported to the Children Hospital of Atlanta for 9 weeks to help him recover from a traumatic brain injury when hit by an automobile in Chapel Hill NC . So I thank all the patrons of Jersey Mikes . On one day of the month, over 2500 Jersey Mikes give 100% to their charities. The good news is,, while my grandson is still dealing with some things others don't have to deal with in life, he is recovering and made his Little League All Star team, who won the N C Little League title this year in Franklin NC . We have all just returned from the Southeast Regionals in Warner Robins Georgia where the teams journey ended in the double elimination tournament. It's a great ride for these 12 year old's. Thanks Jersey Mike's for all the Charities you contribute to. Yes I eat there also. Picture below is my grandson at bat Friday against SC little League.
  2. That’s exactly right. That’s why we’ll win 8-10 games this season and 12-14 next season. But The path to this is now well lit
  3. My Padres swept the 1st place Rangers this weekend. Still not a team at .500 The Padres are the 3rd worst team in both leagues when playing teams with losing records. They can beat the best, but are really bad against the top teams. Dog Daze of August are upon us.
  4. I guess these are less expensive that giving out a beer or pie
  5. I think some Panther fans wanted anyone but Rhule. I never wanted him. I just think some were in so much Panther agony, they wanted any one other than Rhule.
  6. I swore I'd not get too excited about "training camp " .. worrying about every hangnail etc.. Yet here I am DAY 1 ,, waaaaaay too excited about all the comments , videos , and interviews .. All I was wanting September 11 to get here and crush the falcons.. Yet here I am, hanging on every word in interviews,, watching players drive up to a dorm LOL.. PUMPED ,, FIRED UP... Yes I know, every pass that falls shorts or is knocked down, intercepted.. will have the negative comments from those who wanted someone else but Bryce. And some 8th string wide receiver will make a catch that has 20 fans hoping he makes the team and he's better than player XYZ . It's what fan bases do. STAY HEALTHY PANTHERS .. IT'S A LONG TIME TILL SEPTEMBER 11TH. AND EVEN LONGER TO FEBRURY 11TH WHEN WE PLAY IN OUR 3RD SUPER BOWL . YES , TRAINING CAMP DAY 1 I HAVE US PLAYING IN THE SUPER BOWL. 17-0 REGULAR SEASON STAY HEALTHY PANTHERS.
  7. WRAL coverage of opening day. Bryce’s Birthday yesterday , Horn with a lot to prove, players Arriving in style .. IT’S STARTING https://www.wralsportsfan.com/training-camp-move-in-chronicles-birthday-boy-horn-to-prove-and-more/20971503/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter&utm_source=wralsportsfan&utm_term=Sports Morning
  8. The WHOLE PLAYBOOK .. the whole playbook is what coaches say when they have a new QB, a young QB, etc.. and they never give him " the whole playbook ". The Whole Team has never seen the whole playbook from this coaching staff.. Offense, Defense, Special Teams. It's ALL NEW TO ALL OF THEM.. Oh, some of the plays will be like other plays they've run, with new name or terms used.. ONE DAY, we will have a team when they have the WHOLE PLAY BOOK lol.. 47 days till PANTHERS beat the falcons in the season opener. GOOOOOO PANTHERS
  9. It’s almost August .. but for now , we day dream along the coast , beating the heat with a Panther fashionable adult beverage . Cheers from the Carolina Coast
  10. Welcome Home , neighbor .. It's a great place to watch Panther football. Beach in the morning, home by the 1 PM kickoff.. ( go to church on Saturday or online )
  11. He was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2016. He and my mother are/ were the same age. My mother too has Alzheimer's . Tony's last performance was in 2021 with Lady Gaga.. Alzheimer's patients seem to never lose their memory for music/ lyrics. A blessing for him as well as my mother. He might not be able to tell you what he had for breakfast, but I'm sure the lyrics flowed for him, as they do my mother. What a great American talent
  12. I watched this game about 3 days ago on NFL network. I swear I thought we were going to win. Time of possession was what hurt us the most in this game. 39 min to 21 min. It didn't feel that way watching it live , because we were scoring. Our defense was zapped. Tired. Many of us agree, we gave Brady too much time at the end.
  13. Baseball is so different than our other major sports. There is no clock. Each team gets 27 outs . Players, for the most part, play offense and defense. It’s not for everyone.
  14. Braves are having an EPIC season.. It'll still come down to best of 5 or 7 games in the fall. Hope they get their two starting pitchers back. Wright and Fried. I'm a San Diego Padre fan.. Friar Faithful. It's been a difficult season for me. HUGE $$$$$ line up and can't get it together. 4 games below .500, and hoping to make a wild card run. My bull pen is the pits. I have a closer but can't get the ball to him .. WHINE WHINE WHINE. Baseball is not accessible in my opinion. I live on the coast of NC. I can not stream listening to their games on the radio because I don't live in their market. Well guess what, I don't live in the Braves market or the Nationals market. MLB is not much better than the NBA. I miss the days of being able to watch the Braves, Cubs, and Mets on cable TV free.
  15. It's only 5 degrees hotter than Satin's kitchen here along the coast.. People are sweating,, but every time I ask if they are sweating ( while on the beach ) because of Bryce's rookie contract.. they look at at me funny .. Enjoy the rest of the summer.. A month from now , there will be real conversations here on the Huddle about , do we keep 7 or 12 WR ,, and the normal non starters conversations about training camp. BRING ON SEPT 10 AND THE ADDLANA FALCONS..
  16. Our dog used the thunder shirt ,wrap, jacket. It worked to an extent, but even then he'd want to be so close to you and still shaking bad. We did use medication. I hated it, but he literally couldn't handle fireworks and thunder. For fireworks we could start it earlier in the day because we knew it was coming. He still didn't like it but wasn't as bad as without it. Thunderboomers just show up, and the thunder jacket was the best option. And holding him.. It's what we do for our pets.
  17. Q: You know how you find Texas ? A: You walk west till you smell it, then south till you step in it. Q: Why is Oklahoma so windy ? A: Because Texas Sucks ( never miss an opportunity to blast Texas and their self absorbed citizens lol ) The attendance at all the college teams in our area will sag when then teams have 30% winning percentage ( like the Panthers the past few years ) . Tickets sold versus butts in the stands also change with college teams with wins and loses. Winning is the cure to stadium culture. Green Bay fills their stadium because ice fishing is worse. Selling tickets is not the same as butts in the stands and losing teams all have this problem in every sport. WIN NOW !!!! GO PANTHERS !!!
  18. Please explain to me what large businesses don't do this. ( receive incentives from a state, city , county , etc ) It's been going on for years and will so in the future. But for some reason if a professional team does it, it's a shakedown or fleecing . State of SC trying to keep BMW happy . 70 million. This goes on everywhere , when large businesses are involved. Do you really think all the banking interest in Charlotte just decided to move to Charlotte without incentives ?? https://www.thecentersquare.com/south_carolina/article_6bb96518-4fd8-11ed-8dd0-b301aef96fa0.html#:~:text=19%2C 2022.&text=(The Center Square) — The,battery assembly facility in Woodruff.
  19. Frenchwoman Isabelle Boyer, who was first married to the American industrialist Isaac Merritt Singer (of sewing machine fame), and later to the Duke of Campo Selice of Luxembourg. In 1878, the 36-year-old Duchess de Campo Selice attracted the attention of the sculptor who forever immortalized her features in the face of Lady Liberty.
  20. The fleecing comment may be true,, but it's also how business is done in the NFL and has been for a very long time. We can paint Tepper a bad guy if we like, but he won't be doing anything different that the other owners do. It's just part of the having an NFL team in todays world in my opinion.
  21. A running back that can catch the ball out of the backfield will have a high priority place in the game today.. IF HE CAN BLOCK TOO,, He's worth every penny .
  22. I’d like others to post their 4th of July pics.. if you live in the Mtns, post lakes, views, vistas,, cities post their , rooftop views and fireworks, If you’re rual , show us why east living is the best for that .,
