Cancer Patient Hopes to Meet Panther

This is the brother-in-law of one of my co-workers, so I was going to post this when I had a chance.  I'm glad to see that someone already did.  I'm hoping word of this will get back to the team and someone will be able to make a trip up to Salisbury to make this happen.

It was first shared by Spectrum. I emailed and called my PSL concierge about this as soon as I saw it on Thursday

she took it to the Panthers Community Relations dept and said they had just heard about it and we're going to try and do something for him.  she did share that sadly the Panthers get many of these types of requests and typically they do not do player visits during the season

i have seen  many of these types of stories, I am not sure why this one moved me to call the Panthers about it

 Maybe it is because despite all he has been through, he still has the simple joy with  the game of football and the innocent love of a pro team.

we all had that love once before we all became experts and jaded by the lives of the players and the NFL big business spin

i really hope someone can give him this gift

Update on this for anyone interested:  Mike passed away on Saturday.  

that sucks. this is the first i'd seen this thread so i didn't notice that it was an older one. your response kind of took me by surprise.

not sure if it would help, but let your coworker know that there were people here thinking about them.

fug man, why can't we cure all cancer by now.

My guess is there's more money to be made "searching" for a cure than actually having one.   Don't underestimate the greed of drug companies and so called non-profit organizations.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
