Saw something funny today

Walked out to grab the mail today and saw an interesting scene across the street, couple of doors down, about 3pm. School bus drops off a load of kids and they scatter around walking home. A couple linger behind, talking in someones front yard. These kids are probably 9 or 10, and one of the kids has his little sister with him, and she's about 5 or 6.

So soon after they're off the bus, an argument starts over something in the other boy's hand (the one without the sister). They start wrestling/duking it out in this persons' yard while the little girl plays balance beam on the curb, cars whizzing by (it's a pretty busy street).

A few seconds later, the mailman, now going down the other side of the road, sees the little girl on the side of the road and stops, and tells her to move off the curb. He gets out and tries to separate the two boys but ends up with a foot to the gut. He asks which one of them live at the house and they say neither, which just angers the mailman more. He gets in his truck and drives away.

I went back inside and a few minutes later peaked back inside and they were gone...so I don't know how it turned out. Mailman getting kicked was pretty funny because he looks a lot like santa clause.

they weren't thug kids by any means...i don't even know why they were fighting but i'm guessing it was because of the thing the one kid had in his hand and i couldn't see what it was.

stopping the little girl from walking on the curb and possibly falling out into the road was fine. i would have done that if he hadn't pulled up. but trying to stop a fight between two kids in the middle of someones front yard is pretty much asking for a kick to the somewhere. he's just lucky it was his cut and not the kibbles and bits

I know when I was growing up, our mailman was a part time referee for all the bus stop fights that we had. I did lots more fighting in Jr HS/ Middle school than I did in HS. Dont have to fight all the time after you win a few...

I would've stopped what I was doing to watch, its just entertaining...

      Jalen Ramsey

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.

      For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
