This is the brother-in-law of one of my co-workers, so I was going to post this when I had a chance.  I'm glad to see that someone already did.  I'm hoping word of this will get back to the team and someone will be able to make a trip up to Salisbury to make this happen.

It was first shared by Spectrum. I emailed and called my PSL concierge about this as soon as I saw it on Thursday

she took it to the Panthers Community Relations dept and said they had just heard about it and we're going to try and do something for him.  she did share that sadly the Panthers get many of these types of requests and typically they do not do player visits during the season

i have seen  many of these types of stories, I am not sure why this one moved me to call the Panthers about it

 Maybe it is because despite all he has been through, he still has the simple joy with  the game of football and the innocent love of a pro team.

we all had that love once before we all became experts and jaded by the lives of the players and the NFL big business spin

i really hope someone can give him this gift

Update on this for anyone interested:  Mike passed away on Saturday.  

that sucks. this is the first i'd seen this thread so i didn't notice that it was an older one. your response kind of took me by surprise.

not sure if it would help, but let your coworker know that there were people here thinking about them.

fug man, why can't we cure all cancer by now.

My guess is there's more money to be made "searching" for a cure than actually having one.   Don't underestimate the greed of drug companies and so called non-profit organizations.

      Verge, why do you like Mykel Williams?

      The problem with drafting a DE/EDGE high in the 1st is the bust factor.  That position group busts at a scary rate.  We HAVE to hit our first 3 rounds.  Cant take chances on tweeners or potential guys.

      Panthers Prospect Visits/Meetings

      Man folks right on this site said Deion was gonna follow his son to the nfl and have a big impact on his draft stock with his interference and yet we have seen no such thing. He just signed an extension to stay in Colorado for the foreseeable future. The only thing we have seen is so called experts try to tank shedeurs stock with false accusations and rumors and deion just had to step in and shut it down. This why you have to stop listening to what certain people say. Too much hate and emotion in most opinions.

      Reason for Liking or Disliking Prospect X at 8 Overall

      That's sound logic! I think we could make a case for a few players. I know its not popular  with a few but Warren gives to the  identity we want. Tremble is mostly a blocker. Sanders flashed late but mostly a receiving  threat at the moment. Warren is an automatic 1st down, run blocks, runs the ball and can even line up and throw it. To me he is if you took the Taysom Hill and actually could play tight end too. I just think looking at Goedert, Kelce,  Laporta, Hoeckenson, Baltimore Tight ends, Knox and Kindcaid and etc... all the  last few teams had stellar Tight end play. Warren allows you to be unpredictable  on offense bc he is equally good at being a target, as he is a blocker. Don't want to run Bryce on a qb sneak, plug Warren in with the threat to pass. I would be happy with him, Walker or a few others. As long as the player isn't riding the bench year 1.
