i'm embarrassed to admit i fell for this...

last night a man approached my family at chipotle on south blvd.

he complimented on our panthers gear and offered to give us free tickets for tonight's game. he looked just like charles godfrey.

he said he was on the way to a benefit at levine children's hospital, and would i mind donating to the hospital.

he was in a contest with the other players, blah blah blah.

all i had to do was give him the check and my email address...

i fell for it, but thank God i didn't write the check to him! i voided the check today.

i called the ticket office about my tickets, and this look alike has scammed almost a dozen people. the rep at the ticket office apologized and said that most people had been giving him cash....

i even found a forum online where people have posted to complain about this man. he's hit people up for money in the mall, and he's even been spotted going door to door.

This sounds similar to what happened at the Chili's on Tyvola--a friend of a friend, who was bartending at the time, (and some other patrons) got scammed by a guy who said he was a safety on the team, except he said he said he had tickets for the Monday Night game, he said he would give him like 6 tickets for $40. So they gave him the money, and he told them he would bring the tickets Friday.

I was pissed because my friend told me about it, and although I was skeptical, I was also excited because he said they were like 3rd row seats and he might have extras...

Keep an eye out on your bank and other things; if your check has your name/address/phone/etc, then even though you voided the check then the guy has that info along with your bank acct number and signature.

Likelihood of anything bad happening *should* be slim, but better safe than sorry.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      Nobody on the huddle is saying we have an elite group offensively across the board. They aren't great. They're young. If you are expecting someone to agree with your position of blaming everyone around Bryce Young nearly three full seasons into his career you are going to be left holding the bag save for a handful of people who act like they are paid to defend his honor. Bryce Young is not a guy who has had to claw and fight his way into starting jobs in football. He's had the best to work with and been gifted roles since he was a teenager. The Panthers have one of the youngest rosters in the league and with us needing an infusion of young defensive talent in the upcoming draft we're only going to get younger. We need a QB who possesses the ability to elevate those around him. If you can't agree with me on that then there's nothing further to discuss.

      All Bryce and the Panthers had to do was split with the Saints and a rookie QB. The bar was so low. They even had a whole bye week to prepare. The time for singing kumbaya was before that game. Anyone still talking about Bryce earning a second contract 43 games into his career is living a fantasy. He might get one from the Tepper owned Panthers but he's damn sure not earned it.
