Once when I was taking my trash to the roll out, I got stuck in the mud! As "Murphy" will point out, what goes wrong, will. No neighbors around to shout out to, so there I sat in my wheelchair stuck.

I grabbed my phone and started to dial 911, then the little voice in my head played out the scenario for me.

"911 Operator, what is your emergency?"

Me, "Yes, I'm stuck in the mud and can't move.":

Operator, "Sir we are not AAA. If you are stuck in the mud, hang up and call a tow truck."

Me, "You don't understand. I"m not in my car, I am in a wheelchair. On my way to throw my trash away, I got stuck in the mud!"

Operator, now laughing. "Your wheelchair is stuck in the mud" (More laughter!

Me, "Yes, my wheelchair and I are stuck in the mud and I need someone to come and pull me out."

Operator, "Sir, are you drunk?"

Me, "No, it's 9:00 in the morning! I'm stuck!"

Still more laughter from he operator, "What do you suggest?" Even more laughter from those around her.

Me, "I don't know. The Fire Dept? To try and tow me out?"

EVEN more laughter from those around her, "Sir, I will send the Fire Dept to you. Please hang on the line and don't go anywhere!" Open laughter from everyone now!

Once my synapses fired I thought it over. I wasn't going to end up on TV on one of Fox's shows, "Real 911 Calls".

Finally, I was able to roll forward and make my way to the sidewalk and get back to my apartment. Wheels and myself all covered in mud!

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix has only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.

      It's a fine balance. You need elements of both.

      RODS gotta GO

      The Canes physically dominated 2 of the top 16 teams in the league this calendar month. If you truly believe Florida is just that much more physical than us, then what does that say about the rest of the league? Why didn't they go 82-0 this year, if they are orders of magnitude better than every other team?
