Gofundme for Panther Fan

Recommended Posts

I hesitated to post this but then I thought of my Friend Jeff Erickson's son.  I grew up with this guy but lost track of him 30 + years ago.  When you younger guys get old you'll understand.  Another friend was a drummer in a band and a group of us helped where we could with the bands (#sloppyseconds) but Jeff made it his career to be a roadie on the southern Rock circuit.  The dude could tell stories for hours.  He wasn't well off but whatever cash he had he spent on his son and making memories at Panther and Hurricane games.  Cancer just took him from us a few days after taking his mom so his son (who I've never met but hope to meet Saturday) is in need of some help with burial expenses.  

Our drummer best bud was a local celeb, he died 3 years ago and we still have "Cuz-Fest" in ILM to celebrate his life but Jeff was a rockstar in his own right!  Godspeed E!

Thanks JR, you're ok for an eagle fan!  

If anyone can give, great.  But I posted it more for my benefit and it struck me how his son remembered the Panther games the most.  They weren't rich but they made a hell of a lot of memories.... so I guess they were rich!

I grew up with Kevin(Cuz) and Jeff and when you see friends moving on like that you learn to appreciate your time here.

Brak, I spent a lot of time at the Monk back in the day.  And Jimbo's afterward.  Small world!

    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
    • But nobody is saying he is a good deep ball passer.  But the facts are since he's returned from his benching, he has been throwing downfield.  Whether you want to credit the scheme, Bryce himself, or whatever, he has been pushing it deep.  Not to any positive results mind you, but it has been happening.
