Kid sees Cam on Plane... writes him a note

Good for the kid. It's really tough for Cam to be perfect to everyone he meets. He probably meets hundreds or even thousands a week. But for every one of those people it's something they will never forget.

 

It's always a struggle when I see athletes. On the one hand I want to go up, shake their hand, tell em how much I enjoy their work. But they can't stop and talk to every person in Charlotte so I usually keep walking.

And I spoke to someone that is famous but not in the sports world. They say they try to blend in as much as possible in public places (good luck Cam). Because If you stop and sign autographs or take pictures your draw attention and people start to recognize you and before you know it you are surrounded.

I would pie this twice if I could. Really cool move by the kid

 

I have to caveat my reply as I am an admitted poo-hole and it is a Monday morning and hence, a perfect storm, but if I were in their shoes I would try to avoid people and probably would not be all that nice about it.  Even training camp. If you think of it people come to your place of work and bother you....  Most people I work with bother me anyway but then through in a bunch of douches poking around and hanging out.  It would drive me crazy.  I know this is a total one-sided take but I am exaggerating for the purpose of clarity. 

 

These guys do a lot and sometimes go out of their way for people but what usually gets noticed is the one time out of a hundred they avoid someone or decline.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
