If you have never seen this particular video, do yourself a favor and watch it..............all of it. 

Turn the volume up a little as sound is kind of low.

 

It's old but really cool to watch it now and think to yourself why did we ever doubt this kid?

 

I hope Luke has the game of the century tomorrow.  Hell, I hope they all do. 

 

Big time players step up in big time games.

 

Plus, I figured Lola and Boo would enjoy it.

The Pryor hit was when I knew he was going to be very special

 

That was the shiit.  I jumped up off the couch, slammed whatever headgear I had on that day down into the floor and yelled  bo yah or hell yeah or whatever...but I remember that particular play very clearly.  He had an interception the same game.  Good game for Luke no doubt.

 

Announcers said something about they knew eventually those two (Keek and Pryor) would meet up that day, like it was destiny.

I love Luke. I feel like, even at this early stage in his career, he's going to be a player that I brag to my kid about being able to see play live on numerous occasions. I got to see what I think will eventually be one of the greatest, if not flat out THE greatest LB to ever play the game.

Really, as Panthers fans, we've all been pretty fortunate. Smitty's legend, Luke's, and I'm hoping Cam can bring us a couple of Lombardi's over his career. Prime time to be a Panthers fan.

Also, most of us here were fortunate to know HeHateMe.

Oh sweet prince....we hardly knew ye.....

I still remember when people were irritated that we took him considering we had Beason

If we could bring up a transcript of the chat room here on draft day, I'd love to laugh at my remarks. I was PISSED that we drafted a MLB when we had an all-pro MLB.

Lol yeah, I remember this place flipping out after Luke was selected.

 

After he finally got his first start at MLB against Seattle, it became obvious he was pretty damn good, then he went on a ridiculous stretch of games where he was averaging like 13 or 14 tackles a game or some poo and making a bunch of big plays.

 

It became obvious, to me anyways, that he was really something special in that ass-whooping of that 2nd Atlanta game in our house.  Up until then he was just an amazingly athletic young LBer with ridiculous instincts.  During that game though, Luke showed off just how advanced he was in the mental side of the game as well.  Lol I remember Luke was just constantly changing the defense, barking orders all over the place pre-snap to confuse Ryan, and Ryan kept audibling.  It was like a chess match... one that Luke won in dominating fashion.

 

Score was like 30-0 before Atlanta finally got a chance to start moving the ball and get those garbage time yards.

 

The Raiders game (still one of his more impressive games) only two weeks after that display just cemented my belief that we had lucked into a generational type talent at LBer.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
