Happy Panther

Yes it is mild for some people. It is also excruciating for others. And we don't know the mortality rate. Terrible take.

So what are you traders doing? Moving money into equities, out of equities? Trying to time the market? I am adding equities every time the Dow loses 5% so i have added positions 4 times. I can do this for a while but a 2008 type correction would not be fun. We lost more today that my first job in corporate america paid me annually. :shrug:

ACL...out for season

Nope and nope.

Our two "major" signings so far have been guys coming off pretty bad years. Are we going to fix them or is this wasted money?

Seems like a signing with tons of downside potential. I worry that this is our new starting lineman and Gettleman has used this signing to ignore OT in the draft and FA. There has to be better answers than this. And while I assume we are giving up very little money, if for some reason we gave him anything lucrative this would be disastrous. I don't buy that he is going to return to starter quality under Matsko with a new toe but nothing would make me happier if he did.

The logic is dizzying

I've been outside the inner circle before. As the guy who had to deliver bad news I never expected upper management to have my back when I needed it or for that matter come to my funeral. When I had to fly my kid out of country because of a medical issue and he nearly died I did get flowers and one partner emailed me. The head partner never said a word despite being the guy that everyone loves. And i didn't care a lick because they paid well, completely left me alone to do my job and gave me great experience. SO when my contract was up I said thank you very much, took my contract bonues and never said a negative word. So my advice to Deangelo would be to gain some self awareness. JR and your teammates probably had a good reason they didn't show up. Figure out why. Having said that I think many of us are confused that JR wouldn't show up because of how mice and compassionate he is. JR is a hardnosed businessman who can be mean as a snake and has come off as a bumbling idiot at times. I have heard it from some of his family and people who grew up with him. Which is fine. People don't get to where they are by being nice all the time. He is probably not surprised that Deangelo did this and probably doesn't care.

Hilarious. I recently got piled on for suggesting the Panthers and Hardy were negotating this summer (as reported by both sides). Unfortunately this contradicted some opinion piece of Voth.

Well I can't argue against Voth apparently. Seems airtight. You win again.

I never saw any sources cited. GFY

No it's just funny that you are demanding specific inside sources and meeting details to rebut some quip by a journalist who provides no sources or basis or evidence. 9 months later. It's an opinion piece. You blowing this Voth guy or something lol?

lol hilarious.

He made that statement with no evidence or sources. 6-9 months after what we are discussing. It's a pure opinion piece. Why do you keep referring to it? It's dumb.

I feel that he will sign for a massive amount of money elsewhere. What most people feel. I have not heard nor said that we are negotiating with him currently. If I did it was a mistype.

Both sides said they were negotiating and/or would continue negotiating. That's what I know and that was what was reported. You seem to have a need to be right about something Voth allegedly tweeted. Move along.

1955 called

Yeah....and restating that HE WAS CONVICTED! That guy is a complete prick

Not the point dummy. The ones that were charged got a small or no suspension and usually after the courts were done.

Yes it widely was reported that they were negotiating. what was Voth's source?

Civil suits are just cash right? For that matter dimissed criminal cases can be reopened or resubmitted in some cases. I don't think NFL teams would care. Didn't Pacman Jones have a civil suit coming at him and still played?

It really doesn't but what case with the NFL?

Well the official word from both sides was that there was a negotiation on going. Were we just bluffing? Also http://nfltraderumors.co/long-term-contract-extension-for-panthers-de-greg-hardy-now-more-likely/

Goodell took him off the field not us (except for one game)
