Its funny how when you're like 8 and you can't wait to get grown, move out, be by yourself and whatever, and when you get one foot out of the door, its like ehhhhh. Most people my age (17) are worried about what they're going to do after high school or college but thats not really my problem. I know what I'm going to do. I can't plan every single detail, but for the most part, I think I'm ok. My problem, is that I don't want to fail. I...hate to think about..the what ifs..what if this happens what if that happens etc, and I end up nowhere. I set these big expectations for myself, and already I'm worried about failing. IDK, maybe its normal...I hope it is anyway.

thats all

I hear ya. There are worst things than fearing failure. It sucks but it will help you be successful. At least you don't believe you are certainly going to fail, that's much more difficult to overcome.

My advice is value education above all things right now.

Good Luck.

Just remember don't marry the first woman that gives you some.

wise words from a wise man...

17, wow... Seems like just yesterday I was 17, and now I'm 24 and time has gone by so fast it's nothing but a blur to me. Take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself to you, and try to waste as little time as possible because it flies by. And remember, have fun. Responsibility is a bitch. I'm still trying to get a grasp on this whole being an adult thing. The less responsibilities you have the better off you'll be so don't go creating any. Focus on school and jobs. Get pussy, but wrap it up before you dive in. Don't drink and drive. Find a friend that doesn't drink and make him/her drive your ass around. Also just to reiterate don't marry the first woman that gives you some. Your life will be hell if you do.

This post is much more awesome if you imagine that Not-Awesomeness is saying it to your face to the tune of Shattners rendition of "Rocket Man".

Dude just the fact that you worry about it tells me you'll be fine. I used to worry if I would fail at everything and just end up a bum on the street.

I'm going to give you some really good advice, and be sure not to scoff at it...

...never post anything serious on this board.

Just remember don't marry the first woman that gives you some.

What if it was someone rich and beautiful? Or just rich?

      Travis Hunter on T-Mac

      By Seltzer · Posted

      T-Mac put up good numbers for 3 consecutive seasons on teams without a good QB situation, and in an environment where T-Mac got game planned against weekly and still performed. Teams threw all kinds of defensive coverages against T-Mac, and he still found ways week in and week out to contribute at a high level. XL was basically a 1-year wonder. Doesn't mean he cant be great (and I think him & T-Mac will compliment each other well), but i think T-Mac is the more polished of the 2 right now. This certainly isn't a perfect comparison, but I hope XL & T-Mac can approximate what we had with Smitty & Moose (Although i think T-Macs ceiling is higher than Moose and XLs ceiling is lower than Smitty). Both those guys were multiple Pro Bowlers and even All-Pro. T-Mac & XL have a long way to go to actually being comparable, but the potential is there. And regardless of how this season turns out, you can actually see a strategic plan being executed. On paper, I think this offensive roster has as much talent as any Panthers team since 2017. Defense is still a question mark, and it's unrealistic to think we will go from being historically bad to great in 1 year, but based on historical and statistical data, we stand a much better chance of turning the defense around in 1 year than the offense. I still want us to potentially add at S, CB, and ILB, but this roster is exponentially better than the roster heading into the 2023 season. Which still begs the question of how & why the team thought they were in a good position to trade all the way up. Regardless, it's in the past, and while the past 2 years have mostly sucked, we are strategically in a much better position than we have been in years. This is easily the best WR group since 2020 IMO (Moore, Anderson, Samuel). I'm super excited about what T-Mac can bring to this offense and team, and I'm really hoping we continue to build off where we ended last year offensively, and hopefully we've made enough improvements on defense to be competitive. I've also been vocal for the most part in supporting BY9. He came into an awful situation and to a team that was in no position to make such a trade.   Still, this is Year 3. And this is a team that IMHO has both the talent & depth on offense to score and score a lot. Most QBs that ever amount to anything are competing by Year 3. There are no excuses for the offense not to perform. I think BY9 knows full well what's riding on this year in terms of his long term future.  And I think T-Mac is a massive piece in helping Bryce and the team get over the hump and back into playoff contention.
