Your biggest fears.

I'd imagine the most popular answers will be Acrcophobes (heights), Aracnophobes (spiders), Thantophobes (death) and Ophidiophones (snakes). But what are your true fears?

My 2 fears are: 1. Having a lame child and 2. Moldy bread. (seriously)

edited for spelling.

True fears? Coming across a dead body while underwater. Or a beheading. I just have a horrid fear of seeing the last expression on a person's face as they gasp their last breath or getting sliced off.

Wierd fears...horror movies with inanimate objects (dolls, ventriloquist dummies) scare the bejesus out of me. To the point goosebumps rise on my arm thinking about it. Deadly Silence scared the fark out of me.

But everyone else is naked ;)

Has that ever actually worked for someone?

It doesn't matter how much I prepared for a classroom speech. I would get so nervous I would be disoriented. To be honest, it was the only reason I didn't go through college or go back yet. The thought of having to do another speech like that makes me not even want to do it.

if you actually want to change that check these guys out... My father in law joined and it literally changed the way he was able to do business.

Not sure, but I am sure some people use it to ease the anxiety. My public speaking resume includes drunken toasts at weddings so I don't know how I'd do in front of a crowd sober.

That's a nice idea. Thanks.

Mine is an odd one. It is only that standing at podium speaking fear. I talk to strangers everyday at my current job. Never had a problem talking to people.

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
