#59 making a family member smile

Recommended Posts

I know this isn't football related, but I had to post this one here.

 

My cousin has battled cancer for 10+ years and has fought like a champ, but it's unfortunately catching up to her.  She asked for a family dinner this past Sunday to see everyone together for possibly the last time.

 

The following day, Mr Luke-ness Monster shows up at the hospital she is in.  She is a big Panthers fan, so his visit made her millennium.

 

When I asked what it was like meeting him, she said "He's pretty!".  I'm sure Lola agrees.

 

Attached are photos of me and my cuz at the family dinner and Luke and my cuz at the hospital the following day.  I love the fact our guys do stuff like this and this one really hit home. Thanks, Luke!!

As much as people want to think that kids shouldn't look up to athletes, guys like Luke, TD, Cam, Olsen really prove them wrong. I'm an adult and will proudly say those guys are some of my idols-having nothing to do with the Panthers or football, but them as great men. Praying for your cousin, Wilmy.

Absolutely. I could not be more proud of this team's leaders both as players and individuals . Stuff like this seals the deal.

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
