Kemp Rasmussen #97 is a Charlotte Firefighter.  Also a Charlotte Cobra.  The police/fire semi pro team here. I've played with him for about five years now.  Last season was my tenth year playing.  We won the Championship.  Knocked off the San Diego PD team.  Anyway, he's a good dude and an incredible football player.

Did Spoon play for us in 03?

I lost track of him after he left for the Falcons.

 

Also, Peppers is in Green Bay. Surprised no one mentioned him yet.

Witherspoon retired in 2014, owns a farm in Missouri, and does sideline reporting for the Rams. Wonder if he's moving to LA too.

Moose owns Buffalo Wild Wings uptown as well as real estate here in Charlotte iirc

My googling shows that moose owns wild wing cafe at the epicentre rather than buffalo wild wings at the nascar hall of fame.

I had lunch at the wild wing just today and i had noticed they had lots of panthers memorabilia but i never knew moose was part of it.

Mark Fields lives here in AZ and has a real estate firm. His son will be playing CB for Clemson next year. Im surprised that hes sort of a forgotten name around our fanbase. He was an absolute stud in Fox's first year before getting Hogkins disease during the Super Bowl year and played a part in the Keep Pounding phrase becoming the moniker of our franchise. He even came back and made the Pro Bowl the year after his recovery before it sadly came back the next year and he had to hang it up. Im honestly surprised he doesnt have much of a presence around the franchise anymore. Was there ever some kind of falling out?

 

Edit: did some more digging and saw that he had an incident where he allegedly beat the mother of one of his kids. Unfortunate to hear

I'm glad to hear that Fields is doing well. Before "Keep Pounding" became a big thing there was "Never Forget 51 58". I still have the hat I bought with that on it. He was our answer to Michael Vick and it worked. Loved watching him play. After he retired & moved to Arizona he was subject to incidents of rage (which I had read could be from some of the meds he was on). His son went to Hough High in Cornelius, NC so he must've been living with his mother.

iirc Mark was introduced a couple of years back at one of those Panther alumni games.
