I made the decision to propose to the love of my life.  It was both the best day, and the single most important moment of my life.  Fast forward to the Summer of 2014.  We had begun phase 1 of the planning, which included inquiring about caterers, photographers, etc.  And then it struck.  My fiancée got word that her mother was diagnosed with cancer.  That put everything on hold.

 

When I was 15, I lost my father to cancer.  I knew all too well the feeling of shock, and denial, when hearing this for the first time.  We consoled each other.  We stayed strong.  Her mother fought, with the entire family by her side.  And…she won!  In fact, we all became winners.  She has been cancer free for several months.  However, the financial hit from paying medical bills has put us in a bind.  We have come up short on funding for our wedding, which is May 30th.

 

So, why do we need your help?  My fiancée and I have been selected in the top 10 of a contest to win a LOT of stuff, including chair rentals, photography, and other décor options.  To win this contest, we need to have the most likes on our picture.  I know what happens then the huddle unifies.  If we made the panthers black uni’s the GOAT, could we please help my fiancée and I to be able to have our wedding on May 30th?

 

My fiancée, her mother, and I are all HUGE panther’s fans.  We attend a few games a year, but watch EVERY game.  I have been on this board for several years now, posting occasionally, but mainly just lurking.  I love this board, and although we have the most over dramatic fan base in the NFL, I wouldn't want to be a part of another community  I need the huddle's help.  We need your help!

Please, if you could give us just a few moments of your time by clicking the facebook link below and giving us a like and/or sharing the picture.  It'd mean the world to us to have support from fellow panther fans!  And as the poster says, there will be pie for all!  The winner will be the photo that has the most combined likes/shares, etc.

I wish you the best, but really all you need is each other...the "things" really don't matter in the long run.

 

I appreciate your words man, and you are absolutely right.  We don't "need" anything, but she deserves to have the wedding that she's dreamed of!

    • I think taking T-Mac changes how to look at XL and the season he had, especially in retrospect. If you look at his rookie season from the viewpoint of "we traded into the 1st round to take him as our #1 WR of the future" then yea, he had a god awful rookie season and I'd be scared about his future.  But we've now drafted T-Mac, it allows us to now go back and look at XL's rookie season in a totally different light. XL was a late bloomer, essentially having only one college season of experience, he was always going to be VERY raw last year.  If we knew at the time that one year later, we'd have a true #1 and XL "only needs to be a future #2 and potentially doing it from a power slot position" then I'm not so sure he had all that bad of a rookie season. Because he still had 49 catches for 500 yards and 4 TDs, which really is a pretty darn good rookie season for a player as raw as XL was/is, especially when you consider the QB struggles we had last year, and even once Bryce turned things around a bit, we were still a run based team and Bryce's stats were anything but mind-blowing.   Personally, I think it's one of those situations where people are too focused on the negatives with XL and not seeing all the positives and potential he has given how raw he still is. If he's worked on his craft and cuts back on his drops, it's very reasonable to think he could be a 70 catch, 800 yards, and 5 TD type of player for us in year 3 when he's the #2 after Thielen is gone. How many teams have that type of talent as their #2 WR behind a guy putting up 1,200+ and 10 on a yearly basis as their #1 as I fully expect T-Mac to be doing? Then if Coker also improves slightly and is kicking in 600-700 yards himself, then you've built yourself a Top 5 WR room.
    • Mel Kiper's long illustrious history would also indicate that neither does Mel Kiper. It's almost like this poo isn't an exact science or something and that there's a lot of different variables that go into whether or not a guy is successful. It's just that according to Mel Kiper, everyone else is an idiot and he's perfect. LOL 
    • Pats traded randy moss to aquire Ryan Mallett.  Insane. Guess Mel Kiper was right. NFL doesn't know how to evaluate quarterbacks
