I had an instance in an airport while we were going through security and my little child was on the floor and crawled into the main path of an airport shuttle that was flying down the hall. I only barely managed to snatch him up before he would have been crushed by this vehicle that was going *way* too fast and didn't even see. I had to just disregard the "security" that was trying to wand me and go save him while they were freaking out that I wasn't complying. I sometimes have flashbacks, imagining what could have happened. That parental instinct and that sense of possible loss were just a spike of unforgettable adrenaline and panic that is forever woven into my nervous system. I really feel for *anyone* who's had to suffer such a loss.

I really don’t see how a parent can mentally deal with losing a child.  My son had a scary fever at age 2 and had a seizure where he turned blue for about 60 secs.  In that 60 secs I went through what would be the easiest way to kill myself.  Total shock and I lost it.  Thank god he came through cuz I wouldn’t be here

So terrible…hope they can get help and somehow survive this.

Would have been tempting to clothesline that guy if you saw him again 😡

      Bryce might be the most frustrating player we've ever had.

      My favorite thing about football is it's unpredictability. Jake was a living embodiment of that 😆 But man, when it was good, it made for some amazing memories. That 2003 season was just...

      I just don't understand how we want a third year QB to "ball out" with a rookie WR as his #1, a rookie TE as his #1 TE, 2 sophomore WRs (one is a 1st rounder that is being outplayed by the other who is an UDFA), a sophomore TE that struggles with blocking, and Tommy Tremble.  And all of that with what's now a 2nd year HC, who's calling plays for his third time - ever! This is a super young team that is outperforming expectations right now. The Panthers are winning games against better teams and the QB is a big reason why. You have to give Bryce, TMac, Legette, Coker, Evans, Sanders and Canales time.  Otherwise we could just be the Browns or the Jets. No one wants that anymore. If they were going backwards, then yes, blow it up again. They aren't. They're getting better. They look like an actual competent NFL team. They're wildly inconsistent because they're incredibly young and inexperienced. All of them. Not just Bryce. But they're arrow is pointing up, so we should be patient and ride it out. It could be alot worse. A lot worse.

      I think Bryce gets the 5th year option picked up, but I do not think that means the team doesn't pursue an upgrade at the QB position through the draft or free agency.
