  1. Stop centering passes for them right in front of Ned!
  2. Nashville, Music City, home of the Predators. What a shithole! Halfway between Dollywood and Rib Country, we have the city where everyone dresses like Toby Keith vomited his wardrobe across an entire region. Fake ass hillbillies all think they are the next Taylor Swift. The home of country music that wouldn't know country if it slapped them with a catfish. It is such a boring art town they couldn't even think of a specific scary animal to name their team after, just some random predator. Juicy and the boys might be riding high after beating our taxi squad when we had nothing to play for. But, they are about to experience a storm surge their inland asses will never recover from. Hope yall stocked up on extra lives. And if they think they are gonna bring that Tennessee ass hockey team down to the City of Oaks and leave happy, they might be dumber than I thought. Stuffing a live catfish down your pants dumb. That is the type of asinine poo a Hollywood writer would come up with to cosplay as Appalachian. Try as you might Nashville,

  4. As if we needed more reason to love Ned... Ned Levy, Protector of the Proletariat
  5. I think you are right. Though I hope you are wrong.
  6. I hope Rod doesn't hold on to his vet mentality again this time. I get the whole, "nobody loses their job to injury" thing. But, we've already seen what happens when you don't ride the hot hand in net in the playoffs. Ned should get the start. Has there ever been a legit Vezina candidate who didn't start their team's first playoff game?
  7. Came here to post this. The smile. The laugh. The point. The most iconic play of Cam's career. Probably my favorite moment in NFL history, next to X-Clown
  8. Get well soon! We need ya out there Ole Jesper. I gotta experimental recovery machine if you wanna try it.
  9. We don't care about baseball or the fans, we just want your team!
  10. Of course, the current Bulls would have to be a part of the discussions. This idea is not new. When DBAP was built it was rumored that Durham's MLB affiliate, the Rays were considering the change due to poor attendance down in Tampa. The whispers around Raleigh were that it was gonna be a straight up swap. Rays to the minors, Bulls to the majors. Then they won a championship and everybody forgot about it. Now they might become the Montreal Bay Exrays. Lorde Jeebus, baseball is dumb.
  11. Not to mention, Durham is close enough to count both Greensboro and Raleigh metro areas in their TV footprint, surely eclipsing Charlotte.
  12. I get that, but part of the reason the Ducks thing failed so badly was the team had no real ties to the movie, other than being owned by Disney. The team portrayed in Bull Durham was the actual Durham Bulls, a team with its own rich history, going back over 100 years.
  13. If I'm not mistaken, DBAP was built specifically with expansion in mind, unlike the Knights stadium in CLT. I actually know one of the guys who helped develop the Knights stadium. He/they pushed to design it where the stands could easily be expanded to accommodate MLB attendance. The banks who were financing it, wanted more corporate boxes and didn't want to pollute the views from their executive towers uptown.
  14. I'm not a baseball fan. But, if an MLB team moves to the Carolinas, it needs to be in Durham and named the Bulls. Instantly recognizable with both historical and pop culture reverence. They would instantly be #1 in merch sales.
  15. No worries dude! Good find Hopefully the deal gets done soon!
  16. 3 years/$5.4m ($1.8m per) "If the deal gets finalized at the terms that Friedman reported, it’s definitely a below-market price tag as veteran head coaches have been able to command twice that much or more in recent years. While Brind’Amour – who has led Carolina to a 120-64-20 record – doesn’t have quite the track record that coaches like Mike Babcock, Alain Vigneault Claude Julien, Barry Trotz, Todd McLellan, and Peter Laviolette all had at the time of their hires (where they received at least $4MM), it stands to reason that he could have commanded considerably more had he hit the open market" To me, this tracks with earlier reports about the hold up being Rod wanting the assistants and trainers taken care of first. With his name and track record, RBA could easily pull $5m/yr if his agent is worth their salt. But, he knows the value of the organization behind him. And he is willing to take a pay cut if it means others get a raise.
