A kid asked Cam Newton if he's better than Jake Delhomme. Newton laughed and said, "Time will tell."

robgpaul Cam Newton at Steve Smith's camp answering kids ?'s says he wanted to come to Panthers to throw to a great receiver.. Smith just smiles

Fixed your mistake.

Cam cracks me the fug up!!! Nice Lil shot in there to Steve! Btw, I wouldn't read too much into them having a lot of fun at this youthcamp. They both love being around kids, and to them that's more than likely all it's about. Now the camaraderie that they're building... That's where you'll get your money's worth. Can you imagine hearing our horrible Fox announcers saying "and there's another touchdown from Cam Newton to Steve Smith"

Unfortunately we are still far far far away from a resolution with this lockout... And even farther from the season than we were yesterday!

They thought she had Lupus, but seems like she is fine now. Here's the link http://reederstake.freedomblogging.com/2011/06/17/panthers-wr-steve-smith-said-he-briefly-considered-retirement/9325/

What do we have to do to get Saltman to consider retiring from the huddle?

[SOJA]

I hope his wife is ok, i didn't realize it was that serious. Wish nothing but the best for the smith family

I considered retirement this year as well. Unfortunately, that whole not getting paid thing had an impact on my decision. :)
