Her stunned expression lit up millions of television screens and widened the smiles of thousands of Carolina Panthers fans. Pink-hatted and wide-eyed, 8-year-old Isabella Bottomley jumped up and down, cradling the football as if it were a newborn baby. Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart had just handed her the ball he used to score Sunday’s first touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks.
