and saying Im going to have my green

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Panthers quarterback Cam Newton missed practice on Wednesday with a concussion, raising concerns about his availability for Monday nights division game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.The leagues reigning MVP remains in the concussion protocol, three days after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit from linebacker Deion Jones in the fourth quarter of a 48-33 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.Panthers coach Ron Rivera did not address reporters and the team was not required to release an injury report, so there was no official update on Newtons status. Newton did not make an appearance in the locker room on Wednesday and did not speak to reporters.Derek Anderson would start for Carolina if Newton cant play.Anderson is 2-0 as a starter since joining the Panthers in 2011. Both victories came against the Buccaneers in 2014. Anderson declined comment, saying he was scheduled to address reporters on Thursday.Third-string quarterback Joe Webb said he spoke to Newton on Wednesday.He was in good spirits, Webb said. He wasnt down or nothing like that.The struggling Panthers (1-3) are suddenly dealing with several injuries.Left tackle Michael Oher did not practice after missing the Atlanta game with a concussion. Running back Jonathan Stewart, who has missed the past two games with a hamstring injury, continued to work on the side with trainers. And offensive tackle Mike Remmers was given a day to rest. Remmers said he expects to play against Tampa Bay.The good news for Carolina is the Buccaneers always seem to serve as the perfect elixir.The Panthers have defeated their division rivals six straight times going back to 2013.Panthers wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin said the team has confidence in Andersons ability to step in and win some games.We already know D.A. can come in and play, Benjamin said. We have to keep the same mentality and the same confidence.The 33-year-old Anderson relieved Newton in the fourth quarter of Sundays loss and led two touchdown drives to get the Panthers back in the game, throwing TD passes to Greg Olsen and Philly Brown.However, the Panthers defense was unable to keep the game tight, allowing a long TD pass to Julio Jones.Anderson was forced to throw the ball on every play in the closing minutes and was picked off twice, one of which was returned for a touchdown.He did some pretty good things with the exception of the one he thought he was throwing away, Rivera said after the game.He made some good decisions, some really good reads. He handled himself well under the circumstances and got us down there in a position to score. Again, cant make mistakes -- we made some mistakes and they capitalized on them.Benjamin said playing with Anderson is a little different than Newton.D.A. is going to get it out quicker than Cam, Benjamin said. We just have to be fast on our routes. We have to run our routes and beat them to the spot.Benjamin said he doesnt think the Panthers are lacking confidence, but realizes the team is in need of a win if it hopes to catch the Falcons (3-1) and win a fourth straight NFC South title.When you are losing, your head starts sagging and you start getting down on yourself, Benjamin said. So it would be a real good team win if we can beat them.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFLWholesale Yeezy Shop . -- When the Florida Panthers fell behind by two goals in the first period to the top team in the NHL, it appeared they were on their way to yet another loss.

Theyre far from alt-right, and theyre far from crazy left, Bogut told ESPN. I have things from both parties that I like, and I have things from both parties that I hate. Look, yeah, the Pizzagate stuff [was] pretty stupid. My tweet said, If 1 percent of this is true, thats sick. Thats it.Everybody is entitled to their opinion of what they think. Im not going to even defend that. I dont care what people label me. I think once you get defensive and start saying, Im not this and Im not that, whats the point of it?According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the alt-right is a set of far-right ideologies, groups and individuals whose core belief is that white identity is being threatened by multicultural forces using political correctness to undermine white civilization. The movement is tied to white supremacists and neo-Nazis.Bogut understands that there are connotations of racism that come along with being associated with the alt-right, which could be problematic in a league that consists primarily of black players. It has been a subject of discussion among opposing teammates in the visitors locker room at the AmericanAirlines Center at least once this year, with players making the accusations within earshot of media but declining to discuss the issue on the record.However, Bogut said he is not bothered by such accusations.If I really was that and I was trying to hide it, it would bother me, Bogut said. Thats why I dont give a s---. You can be labeled a sexist, you can be labeled a misogynist, you can be labeled anti-this and anti-that. Its someones opinion. You have every right in this world to label me with what you want to label me.dddddddddddd I really dont care. Im not going to try to make you lose your job. Thats, I think, the beauty of living in Western civilization and America or Australia -- you have the freedom to say what you want.Im not going to go out and defend it, because its laughable. Ive never heard of someone thats accepted by the alt-right thats not born in America, period.Bogut, who frequently lobbies against political correctness and acknowledges that he enjoys trolling on Twitter to provoke reactions from people, chuckled when he pointed out that the alt-right would not accept him as part of their group because hes an immigrant.Im a non-American thats here on a work visa thats [supposedly] pro-America. Does that add up to you? Bogut said. I love America. Its a great place. Its given me an opportunity to earn a [lot] of money to do something I love, but does it make sense that an immigrant on a work visa would be wanting to be pro-alt-right? Thats what Im asking. Do you think that alt-right would accept me here? Thats my whole point with how stupid that this thing is.On Twitter, Ive been labeled as alt-right because Ive had some tweets about politics. If you look back, I had some shots at Donald Trump in February. I made a joke about being in Oklahoma City the same time he was and saying Im going to have my green card and passport with me at all times just in case. Then fast-forward seven months later -- I make jokes about Hillary and all of the sudden, its like, Hes pro-Donald Trump! Do your research. Every narrative that fits on social media, you can push. Thats why Im not worried about it.Bogut said he rejects some alt-right ideologies in part because he can relate to the struggles of minorities in America based on his experiences growing up as the son of Croatian-born parents in Australia.My family faced the same things that a lot of people here are, Bogut said. They didnt speak English, worked in factories, were told to go back where they came from for 15, 20 years straight. I heard the same s--- in school because my last name wasnt a Jones or a Smith, which is a [common] Australian. But no one knows that. No one asks that. ' ' '
