You guys wanna hang out for a little while this weekend? Come on... Say "yes."

If you're gonna be in the Charlotte area this weekend, nix whatever plans you've already planned for yourself and head out to my teammate Jordan Gross' Celebrity Kickball Tournament, benefiting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Jordan's beautiful three year old niece, Brooklyn, was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis shortly after her birth in 2005, and him and his wife, Dana, are doing a great job of bringing more awareness to the disease. Unfortunately, there's currently not a cure for CF, but, hopefully by bringing more attention and donation dollars to studies striving to eliminate it, a remedy can be discovered, sooner rather than later.

I can't express to ya enough how pumped I am for this tournament - it's going to be so much fun. Myself, along with Jordan, Steve Smith, Matt Moore, Ryan Kalil, Kenny Moore, and, I'm sure, many others will be out there playing around like little kids. And, you know, I'll probably kick a few homeruns, because - and my Terry Elementary classmates from Little Rock can vouch for me on this - I was the kickball champ back in the day, and there's no way I've lost my skills over the course of the past twenty years.

So come on out, watch the game, grab some autographs, and support a great cause, okay? It's gonna be a big 'ole time.

The game starts at 3pm at Providence High School (1800 Pineville-Matthews Road, Charlotte, NC, 28270), but the gates open at 1:30pm. For more information, visit: KickCF.com

Looks like good fun for a great cause!

I went two years ago and it was a blast. The players are really laid back, will sign and mingle after the game for a bit. They do have an auction where some big money flies and it's all for a great cause.

Unfortunately I can't make it this year, but I'd go every year for sure.

Smitty won the most expensive auction item which as a trip to the Pro Bowl in Hawaii.

      Bryce Young May Be The Answer

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I call bullshit. Brady,Manning,Brees and Burrow are all just ball distributors. And the better thier supporting cast and more experience they got the better they got. Thier best attributes were between the ears.  Now I'm not saying Bryce is gonna turn into one of them but what I want is for him. Is to have a solid roster around him and some coaching continuity too see if he takes the next step. Because everything I've seen and read after the benching is that his mental toughness and workethic are what we need in a QB

      2024 Draft Picks

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Many criticize our picks in 2024. I believe that most of them were picked because their ceiling is better than those selected before them.  XLs needs to learn how to play in the NFL. Once he gets up to speed he'll be worthy of 32nd pick.  Brooks, showed why we took him in the few games he played. The ACL injury really sucks but he can overcome these setbacks. Remember TD had 3 ACLs and eventually will be in the ring of honor one day.  Wallace will be a solid LB going forward with experience  Sanders, TE is a tough position to play. He a getting valuable playing time and will become a good TE.  Going down the remaining draft pics all seem to have a good upside. They may not be showing much now but they will start showing their worth next season.

      I think he's shown enough that if a QB fell to us at our pick we'd either draft a defensive player or trade down for more picks.
