oh yeah speaking of which, everyone go read this awesome blog post by @Moorgan and help me decide whether or not i've ripped off his brilliance yet again

Ha! Mine had nothing to do with football. You're blending of the narratives is a skill all your own. I'm reminded of DJ Danger Mouse and the Grey Album. Jay Z and the Beatles merged? Brilliant and unique. Bravo my friend.

You're in Huddle country. We remember preseason games in intimate detail.

My first reaction to your accusation was "Hyperbole!".

then just as quickly I remembered Cams first start against the Bengals.  His first rushing TD where he bulldozed that DB to get in the end zone.  Buying his Reebok jersey in the team store for me and a 00 onesie for my newborn son.

so, uh, good call.

Preseason Game 1 at home against the Giants. This was the NFL debut of one Cam Newton (2nd on the depth chart behind the mighty Jimmy Clausen) who had a mediocre showing leading a couple of field goal drives.

Highlight of the night was rookie receiver Kealoha Pilares juking Giants' Ninth stringers out of their shoes en route to a 35 yard touchdown off of a Derek Anderson pass. We were crowning Pilates as the eventual replacement for Steve Smith and debating whether or not Cam should sit a year while DA was the starter the next week.

Good times.

This one is indeed personal.  It ain't just the team, it's the fanbase that I hate.  I hate Dallas fans like they hate proper hygiene, humility, football knowledge, grammar, critical and argumentative thinking, and map literacy. 
If they're America's team, well, NC seceded once.  If being a fan of that team makes one American, count me damned proud to not be one then.

The hell with Dallas, the hell with the Redskins, and the hell with the media. 

If Carolina plays with my intensity right as of this moment, you can proceed to call us the Chicxulub Panthers and you can call the Dallas Victims fossils.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
