My new favorite Carolina Panther is Jahkeen Gilmore. I saw No. 15 make a nice catch at Carolina's first practice Wednesday, and then another, and thought, who's that? I looked up No. 15 on the roster, saw that it belonged to Jahkeen Gilmore and thought, who's that? Well I'll tell you who he is. He's a rookie receiver out of Indiana.
A question: How come when a player holds out it's always his fault?
On June 19, defensive end Mike Rucker and safety Mike Minter and Minter's two sons and a nephew went to the World Wrestling Entertainment show at Charlotte Bobcats Arena.
Rucker probably is the biggest wrestling fan on the team. He's a huge fan of wrestling star Ric Flair and Flair is a fan of the Panthers. Flair brought the group backstage and introduced them to several wrestlers, among them Chris Benoit.
This was Tuesday. Three days later, police have ruled, Benoit took the life of his wife. On the fourth day, Saturday, Benoit took his son's life and then his own.
When the Rucker-Minter group met Benoit, there was no hint of turmoil. Benoit was gracious and gave them all the time they wanted.
"We talked to him for 15, 20 minutes," says Minter. "It was just unreal when we heard what happened."
"I couldn't believe it," Rucker says.
You know how when you spend a few minutes with a celebrity you tell your friends what he or she is like? Rucker and Minter thought they knew what Benoit was like.

I totally agree. Mike Minter has not only been a great football player, but he also is a solid man of quality character...something out society NEEDS to start honoring!

I am a Dog lover I have a dog...but to coment on your peace on "ranking atrocities" If you say people should Turn their back to people who fight dogs. Do you say the same thing when you go meet your new Father-n-law and You say "what did you do today dad" and He responds well I grabbed by shotgun and stalked a family of deer..with the mother and babies..and then Blew it's BRAINS OUT! for no reason and cut the head off and hung it on my Wall. What do you say..do you tell him he's short of a Sociopath? probably not because he's probably white. And don't give me the "it's legal" there are many things that were "legal" 50 to 200 years ago that were still VERY wrong. Is vick wrong? (yes) should it be a felony? No more than shoting a neighbors pet pig is. (which is a misdemeanor a man in catawba did a few weeks ago)

Youve got a point! She tried to kill me several times... Did stab another girl I was seeing at the same time and tried to stab me and shot at me once and another time tried to run me down with her car (that Id bought for her) in Fat City. She was just... exciting!Great memories!But, I dont think she reads. She didnt have a normal education. Her mother was a junkie and sold her to Carlos (the Godfather) when she was 8 and then she made the career mistake of turning 12 and got way too old for him and he threw her out. I met her when she was 25 and had graduated to call girl status. We met in a bucket of blood one night and she took me home with her and the next day asked me to move in with her. Kind of an ego trip to have a top call girl like your moves enough to have you live with her. She makes a big appearance in my memoir which I hope will be out next year.
