I am sure that he had some help writing his blog, but it is nice to see a professional athlete than can write better than an average third grader.

Go read some of Dwight Howard's postings and it is clear that he couldn't have went to college had he wanted to.

When I first got here I had Jake Delhomme and a lot of older guys, they were always offering to lend me a hand. I know how much I appreciated it, so that’s the way I want to be with these guys. They can come to me for anything.

Yes full of hate and venom....:willy_nilly::willy_nilly:

lol, good selection Kurb.

What about the first 2 paragraphs?

I knew we needed some new blood and that the team was going to take a quarterback. It’s been real quiet in the quarterback room with just me and Hunter Cantwell. So when Clausen fell as far as he did in the draft, I kind of figured it would be a serious possibility that the Panthers would take him.

Hey, I thought it might happen and it did and honestly I didn’t think too much about it. Right now I’m the starting quarterback and I hope to keep it that way. The best guy is going to play, whoever produces and puts the team in the best position to win ballgames is going to be the one out on the field, that’s the way this league works. I understand that. All I’m focused on doing is what I’ve been doing. I’m not worried about what everyone is talking about as far as my playing time.

[Kurb]

I'm the starter.

Knew it might happen.

Welcomes competition.

May the best man win.

Yeah he handled it well overall. Just the first few statements stuck out to me. Playing basketball, I know how it feels to be the incumbent guy and have the coach bring in guys to try and take your spot. It pisses you off, you can be politically correct all you want, but inside you're really pissed off. Especially when you were just under the assumption that you had been given the job.

Some of the edge is taken off if the incoming competition acts more like a teammate and less like a jealous douche.

I think they'll get along well as far as I can see. I just know as a competitor, Moore wants to win the job and shove their face in the dirt... Then he'll be there for them if they need anything lol.

He mad.

Venom? I didn't see any venom.

He's just answering the question "Are you ok with new QBs?".

To which he gives a very professional, level headed response, which came across as honest, understanding, and accepting.

Hell, he goes on to give both new guys props.

Venom... I'll tell ya what venom is... it would have been this:

Hey, I'm Matt Moore, STARTING QB for the Carolina Panthers.

Want to know how I feel about new QBs? I'll tell you.

Coach and the GM are out of their minds for drafting QBs. Me and Hunter have this. They are rookie pond scum that won't see a single regular season snap.

Who knows, maybe they can get some more Wide Receivers for me next year when they are traded.

Now THAT would have been Venom.

That's because he's a QB, a white QB.

[SmootsDaddy89]

Some of the comments are even more hilarious.

"THERE IS NO COMPETITION!!!!!!" *buries head in sand.*

[SmootsDaddy89]

That's because he's a QB, a white QB.

Not sure what you were trying to say there, but I'll get my popcorn ready anyway.

[Pumpkin King]

hahaha.

QBs are smart. Except for Vince Young.

[ladypanther]

I don't sense venom. I do sense focus and determination.

Thanks for the link to his blog.
