I was hoping all these freak accidents and stuff would not continue over into this season. The past week we have Martin retiring suddenly, Coach Ron's brother dies, Hill gets busted, now this. I'm not liking this.

look at it this way...we're getting our poo stuff out of the way before training camp

Yeah, after a quiet "no news is good news" and/or "the Panther news (Cam's contract signing) is good news" offseason, this week has been full of the kind of news we don't really want.  So much distraction just on the eve of camp.  Though at least there's NOTHING remotely like last year's Hardy fiasco.  That was the distraction to end all distractions really, especially given the uncertainty of not knowing his status for awhile, thus not being able to effectively build our defense.

You know, I've been thinking about the fact that Braylon (the kid with cancer) will be the honorary coach at Fan Fest, and how Ron's brother just died of pancreatic cancer.  Hopefully those two events combined at the start of this season will help our team to keep a wise perspective on what really matters, and maybe they'll play with a passion to honor those who show daily what real courage and real victory is in the face of trials like cancer.

Still nowhere as weird or shitty as SF's offseason though

lol at the #changingmyunderwearnow.  he has good humor about it.

Charles has a pretty good sense of humor in general.  Dude is pretty funny.  No clue whether its been posted anywhere here before or not, but this interview on HQ is pretty funny:

Great locker room presence.  Just hoping he's got some tread left on those tires.

Following Twitter, just beginning to realize how huge a star Peanut Tillman really is.  #Panthers are #3 trending topic in Chicago, and it's probably because of Tillman.  I think he is a huge PR plus for the Panthers even before he plays a snap!

Got a great chuckle out of this #Pantherscamp tweet I just saw:

      I figured as much. Hopefully he's just resting up and will be ready for round 3 (if we make it that far.)  Sucks to see. Hes been our best defender (besides Slavin) in the playoffs so far.

      I've never bought into the idea. There's just too much at stake, even for front office people. Jobs are lost, trust is lessened, lives are altered, reputations are damaged and more. Throw in that the average front office person isn't as young as the average player. They may not have ten years ahead of them to salvage their careers. Any given year could be their last. The only person not guaranteed to suffer some direct form of consequence from losing is the owner, and even there you still have problems (fan reaction, team reputation, revenue, etc). You've also got massive egos in play on that front so it can get personal. Mind you, I do accept that there are "fire sales" in order to build for the future, but even those have consequences. They don't exactly guarantee success either. Poorly run teams often just wind up in the same circumstance a few years down the road. Sorry gus, but my tinfoil hat just hasn't fit me for quite a while.
