Congrats to Cam and his foundation.  The Panthers have quite a few players making a difference. One of the reasons I like this team.

Thanksgiving is a day for family, friends, football and food, but Panthers quarterback Cam Newton didn’t wait for Thursday to make sure needy kids got the meal so many of us look forward to every year.

Newton hosted an event that fed more than 1,200 kids and some of their family members this week. Newton, who also provided a meal for the kids to have at home on Thanksgiving itself, has held the event for the last seven years and this year’s featured the biggest turnout yet.

Newton laments that “you just can’t do enough” because there are still more hungry kids. His generosity was still recognized by the NFLPA as they named him this week’s Community MVP.

“I always want to use my influence in a positive way [and] that can take a variety of shapes through my foundation and our programs,” Newton said in a release from the NFLPA. “I’ve been blessed with fortunate circumstances and want to share hope with as many people as I can. I’m adamant about using my influence for good.”

The award comes with a $10,000 donation to Newton’s foundation

I just want a ring at any cost.

Too savage, it does matter who cam is outside of game.

I love when our players are involved in our community, and Cam is probably more involved than any.  There are many documented and many more undocumented things he has done in this community.  This is not for show, this is truly who he is and is second nataure for him.  Love this QB!

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
