#59 making a family member smile


WilmyWood

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.

    • You bring up a good point on the stability part and i would agree that probably will factor into it. But yes, Tepper does have a strong influence on who stays/goes but I still believe ultimately it'is Morgan, Tilis and Canales who will decide.  
    • I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.
    • holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
