Hey Uncle DG, happy Victory Tuesday I was wondering since the Carolina Panthers are playing on Monday Night Football next week if the Panthers are planning to have a viewing party? — Shaked, Charlotte
Hey everybody, Shaked just invited everybody to his place. Don’t worry about bringing anything, he’s got it covered.
Nothing planned. It’s a school night.
How is Josey Jewell doing? Does the team keep in contact with him at all? Is his health in a better place? Not from a football standpoint, just in general. — Eric, Brick Township, NJ
Several people have checked in on him; this is a very tight-knit community. That’s not just players, but staffers throughout the building. These people develop real relationships. Several people said he’s doing well, but that’s a human consideration rather than a football one. I’ll let his health be his business, but like you, hope for the best for a good dude.
Greetings and salutations! I come before you as a humble FOTM wearing a beautiful blue shirt that displays my qualifications of said mailbag. In all seriousness, thank you sincerely for the shirt. This was my second-favorite thing to happen this week, with the first being the Panthers, led by BY9, beating the Falcons yesterday. My question is, what made the Panthers want week 17 to be the Industrial Workers Appreciation Week? As a career industrial guy myself, I think it’s awesome, but I’m just curious what originated that idea. If I didn’t have a newborn at the house, I would definitely consider going.— Cody, Four Oaks, NC
We do it for the people. Our friends in ticketing have similar promotions for teachers, first responders, and the military.
Bring the baby. What the heck. Wrap it in your new lucky shirt.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! — Bart, Monroe, NC
I’m sorry, Bart, you didn’t phrase that in the form of a question. This is not ‘Nam, there are rules.
I would like to know why Hunter Renfrow has not been playing for the Panthers? — Lee, Williamston, SC
They’re going with young guys instead. He’s still practicing, and ready, and helping every day. History suggests he’ll have another chance, and he’ll make another play.
But again, this team is going young on purpose, with all that entails.
