Training camp idea

[Matt Foley]

Wouldn't it be cool if the Panthers picked one fan out of each practice and let that fan eat with the team? The deal would be No autograph or picture requests. You're just there to soak it all in.

Wouldn't cost the Panthers anything, hardly. And one fan would have a great story to take home with them.

Also, what about letting fans take their shots at the barrels for five minutes after practice...you know, the ones the quarterbacks throw at?

The fans are down there suffering in the heat, throw them a bone.

[CRA]

don't they already do a variation of that for the kids? They get to help players carry the pads and hang out for a few minutes?

What about taping Meat to a goal post and let the kids tack a whack at his nuts with a bat until he cries or passes out?

Now we're getting somewhere -- although probably a hard target to hit. :biggrin5:

[Matt Foley]

You would hear the metallic dong sound all over campus.

Depends on the fan

And from what I've read, the barrels are gone. Scherer has other ideas.

A QB coach in Carolina with ideas? Scary.

Okay, then let fans kick field goals for five minutes.

How bout they tell all the fans to get on a knee and turn around while Steve Smith punches them in the face. That would be fun.

Let me guess: throw three feet over the barrels while they're in triple coverage?

Only kidding. I think Delhomme is going to be motivated and have a huge year. I hope Scherer plays a part in that.

is the first practice really at 9.

Yeah I don't think being allowed to get whacked with pads while trying to throw would be an attractive thing for a fan to get to do.

[Peppa Jack Supreme]

I just think it would be great after practice was over and after the players who wanted to leave have left if they let small groups of fans walk the fields with a guide or something and maybe have some of the players hang out. No pics, no autogrpahs or anything like that, I guess more of a q&a kinda thing. I cant tell you how bad I want to run around barefooted at BOA, this would be a nice start.

9:10 actually.

gotta beat the heat.
