Prayers Needed

Just found out one of the little fellas that I helped coach in flag football a while back has been diagnosed with some sort of kidney disorder.

He's facing the possibility of dialysis, maybe even needing a transplant, and all of this at age ten. His parents are fine Christian people, but like any parent this is going to hit them pretty hard.

Just a few months ago, I was watching him run around like a little Wes Welker. He was fast, he could catch, run good routes, elude tacklers, honestly nothing he wasn't good at. We could put him at any position on the field and just watch him go. I have fond memories of watching him score touchdowns on plays that were ESPN highlight reel worthy.

It's tough to reconcile those images with what I'm hearing now. This is the kind of thing you hate for anyone, but especially for a child whose biggest concern should be whether he's going to get what he' wants for Christmas.

Prayers for him and his family.

      Off Season topic: What Panthers question do you have that you know will never be answered?

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah lol well the interest isn’t really about seeking stimulation.  I wanted to see how actually bad it was.  And how much of it was women setting him up to be their cash cow.  That is the stuff that leveraged the Panthers into David Tepper’s hands. It is important in that sense.     The worst that I have heard is that he got them in the car and clumsily reached across to help them with their seat belt and made contact. With his arm. That was probably his big slick move. And I can almost guarantee he wasn’t rejected every time. It is easy to picture that action bringing his head close enough to the woman’s head to where he could go in for the kiss if he thought he got the green light.    I really don’t care if JR was a horn dog. We heard all our lives up until the last few years that one of the perks of being really old is that you can flirt with the young women and it is not just tolerated but expected. So he was keeping a tradition alive at some point 😂

      Well I rubbed some dirt on it and am still here just not optimistic about the future of the QB position. Even what I had accepted as a ceiling raised to an acceptable level turned out to be a bit of a mirage, upon rewatch of the WC game.  Good plays were there yes, but some pretty bad ones too that the good ones late in the game kind of obscured. I have to downgrade that a little.  Especially after rewatching the last 4 plays. I remember the arguments about he did his job the WRs didn’t but that was really just that last muff by Coker I think it was on our final offensive play.   To the future: I know what my level is for paying him and recommitting, but I don’t have any confidence that the team shares my high bar.    But thanks for the pep talk
