Michael, 11, got the football from Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newtonafter Newton threw a touchdown pass in a Nov. 22 victory over the Washington Redskins.

"I wanted to cry," Michael said in a recent visit to Bank of America Stadium to share his experience. "Cam, he's my hero."

Jaden Battle, an 11-year-old from Raleigh, North Carolina, got a football from Newton during a preseason game against New England. He might have summed up best what the program means to kids.

"It feels like I won the lottery," he said. "There's not a chance that you get a ball from Cam."

This just warms my heart. Cam is great guy.

All the local SEC-minded folks I hang with still refer to Cam as if he were playing at Auburn, and continue to bring up all his collegiate controversies. Even last Sunday, one said something about the fine Cam receives for giving away footballs (yes, I corrected that).

For whatever reason, there's haters out there; pointing them to articles like this can only help turn that ship around so they can see the real Cam: Good guy, good heart, sugar-cereal-lover, wacky shoe-wearing, always smilin', team leader, may the Force be with him, get-er-done MVP

Packers defensive end Julius Peppers snatched the ball from Newton after the touchdown and tossed it toward the sideline, forcing Newton to chase after the ball. That directed Newton, who normally picks out a kid near the middle of the end-zone wall, toward Colin.

Colin, whose father died of a heart condition a month earlier, was there with his two grandfathers. Newton had no idea of the pain Colin or his family had experienced.

All he saw was the smile.

 

That one got me.

If you hate Cam, it's because you want to. There is no earthly reason otherwise. You have to be living under a rock not to have heard about what he does for kids. The guy is just special. There is no other way to look at it.

 

HoF talent. With a heart of gold. And to think. I wanted to take Fairley, and suck for Luck. Man, I disappoint myself sometimes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.

      Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
