Newton grants a wish for a cancer stricken teen

[KendrickPanther]

Man that's a shame we couldn't get this kid court side vs the Heat. Some people worry about Cam leaving but I personally feel like he has grown roots. He has his foundation set up, he visits our schools, and attends Hornets games. I think he is happy here.

Bravo Cam, thats my quaterback! Im proud of him and very thankful that he uses his fame to help people. Unlike some other Qbs who will remain nameless that use their fame to put themselves into questionable circumstances.

Plus, Charlotte ain't that far away from Mama. :P

Great story.

Cam Newton is a man. For real.

OK, I nearly died laughing when I saw the Twitter reply to the kid from someone asking how Cam's ankle looked.

KEY

DID NOT WANT MEDIA.

fake my ass, the guy is genuine.

That was the biggest thing I took from it. Smitty was the same way, there was so much he did locally that people don't even know about.

That tells you they're doing it for the right reasons.

Love Cam

I love Cam.

I seriously doubt Johnny Football or Micheal Jordan give two shyts.

That's awesome! Cam seems like a sincere guy. I'm sure that kid was thrilled to meet him. I liked that he didn't want cameras. It's more intimate that way.

Cam went from a kid with maturity issues in college to coming into the NFL and taking the bull by the horns in becoming the face of this franchise and really growing into a man. Not many athletes coming out of college get it that quick. He really is trying to shape his game after the Mannings/Brady's in terms of all around leader. Great stuff

1st, I really hope the kid can recover from his cancer.  I hate when kids get sick or hurt.  Breaks my heart.  Best wishes to him and I hope he triumphs over this.

 

2nd, I was not an early Cam fan but the last couple of years I have truly come to appreciate the things he does.  Most of that appreciation comes from his off-field endevours.  I think he is a hell of QB too and glad he is ours.  Proud of our QB!

I love Cam as much as you can love another man in a non-homosexual way.
