i watched the film 'heavyweights' and just realized it foretells the carolina panthers victory in the 2017 season super bowl

as a newly single person, i figured the best way to meet wimmin is to get drunk as poo and sit at home watching dumb 90's movies on netflix. armed with a bag of ritz baked sour cream and chives crackers and a couple of hoppyum IPAs, i kicked it on my couch and fired up heavyweights, a movie about fat kids finding their purpose even though jeffery tambor and ben stiller are being total dicks about it. through all of my laughter and tears, one thing stood clear: this movie foretells a super bowl victory for the carolina panthers.

for those of you who haven't watched this masterpiece, here's the plot: an overweight kid gets sent to fat camp. everything is great at first. he hops on a bus with kenan thompson and makes friends with everybody. they pull into fat camp and start throwing their luggage to the resident camp counselor and

...OMG HOLY SHlT WHAT'S THAT

by god, that's paul feig ia #95 jersey with a carolina panthers logo on it! this movie had my curiosity, but now it had my attention.

let's back up for a second. this movie came out in 1995, which was the inaugural season of the team. the main character's name is a plucky young go-getter by the name of ...jerry. he's a likable kid, and he quickly makes friends with everybody, including the camp jokester and the sniveling british kid. but most importantly, he meets cody.

ARE YOU SEEING THIS

 

you might call me delusional. i called me delusional too. i called me drunk. i paused to scroll through a hundred tinder profiles that aren't liking me back and wondered if i'd be better suited lifting weights instead of watching heavyweights and structuring this post. but fug it, this is destiny! i knew it the moment some little poo prick named salami sam waddled in and sucked ass in the chipmunk hut, best damn hut in all of camp hope's history:

THAT FAT FUCK IS A FALCONS FAN

 

this poo was starting to all come together to me. it was the perfect setup. how many years has it been since this movie came out? 22. how many years have the panthers been a team? 22. what was the culminating point of this movie? the apache relay, a championship match between camp hope the stupid other camp. what's the culminating point of this year? the fuging super bowl motherfugers

of course to get there they need some help from loyal allies, such as tom, camp counselor who wore a panthers polo followed by panthers-colors-infused-mid-ninties-grunge-rocker-flannel-wear

it's too good to be true. ever defeated, the good guys sweated their way through training camp, beating out ben stiller on meth and a waffen SS type to master themselves by putting the butt of a hispanic (ron rivera) kid in ben stiller's face an imprisoning him. know where they did it?

THAT'S FLAT ROCK NC OMG

 

ok all of this ends up with the downtrodden fat kids (panthers) finding themselves and becoming super self-actualized and stuff. but the movie doesn't end until jerry has to face down the ray romano looking bitch kid from the prep camp in the race at the apache relay.

so what happens? jerry (richardson) defies all odds by jumping on top of the ray romano bitch kid's car and wins the race (superbowl) and all the fat kids (huddlers) go bonkers an celebrate their win (super bowl win) which tells me we're gonna drop a charles johnson car on top of some bitch ass mid tier game manager AFC quarterback in the super bowl after nuking the falcons to win the division and then win the mother fuging 2017 superbowl and hoist it above our fat ass heads for the rest of time.

heavyweights indeed

I borrowed this movie from a girl in like 4th grade.  I never gave it back.  

 

Edit: the 2017 Superbowl already happened btw. 

she probably let you have it so you'd stop obnoxiously correcting what she said when she was drunk

    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way. 
    • We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
