eric davis patted me on the head one time when i was really young and then he proceeded to dunk on a police officer in a nfl players vs cops game in the bay area

 

When my son (now a UNC Junior--time flies) was 3, Eric had just been signed and OTAs were in Rock Hill.  He had a bad thigh, but he got down on one knee to pose for a picture with him,  Davis could not get up-I had to help him.  About 6 years ago I bumped into ED at a high school football game (Catholic) and chatted with him.  -- he remembered the bruised thigh, not my son. Great guy

Once, after a practice, my son was 3 years old, and Kevin Greene (I had asked him to pose with my son) walked up behind him to grab him for the photo.  My saw him out of the corner of his eye and took off running.  Greene grabbed his hat, but my son eluded the pressure.  So my son says he scrambled out of the grasp of perhaps the Panthers best sack artist in team history.

Buddy of mine gave his son a military themed 13th birthday party (little fella says he wants to be a Nave Seal) and served as the party's 'drill sergeant'. I was along for the ride.

In the spirit of things, I told the partygoers they made Gomer Pyle look like Rambo.

They had no idea who I was talking about :lol:

Was the boy named Ian and races Karts?

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
