Panther'sBigD

I was born in Charlotte, so I'm partial to it. Everywhere else is great to visit though. If I lived in another city it'd be Swannanoa or maybe Hendersonville. 

I know that this is just a list for fun, but LOL at anyone who lives on Lake Norman having the gall to say any other place 'has no soul.' LKN was okay 20-30 years ago before it was overrun by Rust Belt refugees and MAGA dipshits. 

L’Chaim!

There's a rumor going around that Michael Jordan is selling the Hornets to try to be a part of the Commanders ownership group and the figurehead

I saw that! Boy, wouldn't that be some terrible luck for Washington fans!?!? Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Why are we putting out smokescreens?  Why have the #1 pick

Same reason they're putting out there that they'll trade out of the first pick because they like more than one QB. It's a dumb theory, but equally dumb is the fear that Rapaport has some inside information on who the Panthers are picking. 

The Levis mention is next level smokescreen by Fitterer and Reich. Rapaport earning his paycheck. 

This is a fair deal honestly. We only lose one first rounder, so we would still have trade ammo next offseason if worse comes to worst. Hate to lose DJ, but WR is less difficult to replace than a starting QB. I hope he balls out with Fields next season unless they're playing us. 

LMAO. Lombardi and the rest of them are just throwing poo at the wall and seeing what sticks. Don't know why so many of you are waiting there to lap it up as it slides down the wall. He has no idea what Reich and the Panthers are doing.

Kunkels sounds like something you catch in a third world country.

Not really. We only have one TE to assess in Tremble.  The rest are not worth even considering. 

I'm not counting any player out until this staff has made their assessments. You never know what can happen for a player when they receive actual quality coaching. 

Hell Naw.

Crown and Claw pegged this one too.

Wonder if that means Caroline Cann comes back to the team site.

Twitter comments say Frazier's wife used to be a team reporter, so probably just her giving a friend the scoop?

Remember when Brian Griese missed playing time because he tripped over his dog? LOL. 

You have to wonder how they sold him on this when so many other teams were after him for a more prominent position. I wonder how much legacy has to do with his decision. By that I mean, do you think that the pitch involved the opportunity to come in and mentor rising coaching talent? Evero is already on board and this will hopefully be a springboard for his next opportunity. How cool would it be for the Panthers to become an incubator for rising coaching talent? With older, veteran Head Coaches taking consultant roles where they get to continue to grow their coaching trees, but with the better quality of life that comes from a consultant role vs. HC. 

Seeing teams with good to great QBs opening up to the idea of trading them for a bunch of picks honestly makes me feel better about us using a bunch of picks to trade up and get our guy in this draft. These teams trying to trade away their QBs for picks obviously feel there are some upgrades available in this draft, so we should go get one of them ourselves.

Well you come off as a pretentious nozzle of a douche.    Someone who thinks they are a free thinker by parroting Joe Rogan

 

I take nothing seriously and have no plans to be banned.  I think you would be though if you spoke honestly. 

Don't get sucked into an argument with a geek who thinks living in Brooklyn is an entire personality. He's still mad that Phil regularly ate his lunch whenever he'd try to butt into a Tinderbox discussion.

Well...OK then.

I don't come on here much at all during the weekend, and this weekend was no different.  Was doing a lot of woodworking around my house, and staying away from Twitter....I never have the TV on in my house unless football is on.

Had no idea that we made a hire, or were looking to until I sat down at work this morning...well I'll be...we are acting like a real NFL team...incredible.

That said, do we know that he's going to bring the 34 base to this team?  I'm kinda hoping so as we do have some of the pieces for it...but we will need to bring in some FA's for that base.

I'm excited....been a while.

He's stated, in several interviews I've read online, that you have to fit your scheme to your players and not the other way around, so I'm guessing he'll go with whatever works best for our young core. I'm particularly excited to see what he does with Chinn. That guy deserves to be put in a position to shine again.  

Good for him. Dolphins finally have a chance to be good again, and I'm sure he got a fat contract. Also, dude in 64 and will be living in God's Waiting Room. Hell of a way to live out your golden years.

Still just crazy that he basically threw his marriage and nuclear family away to come back and play one last shitty, underachieving year when he could've just stayed retired then and his legacy would be no different.  His legacy wasn't affected by this recent season either, but the fact he played it with nothing to gain, but so much to lose and did it anyway, but NOW he is ready to retire? Tough.  You could tell the decision and the consequences really affected him last season as well.

He's ready to be a full-time dad! Those kids of his aren't going to French kiss themselves. 

It took Jay Z seven years to get his money, so Rhule should expect to wait awhile. 

Honestly though, it's a lawsuit, it's not gross incompetence on anyone's part. He probably already asked for the money, and Tepper's lawyers think they have grounds to refuse to pay. A couple hundred thousand is less than $5MM, so I get why they're going through the courts vs. just shelling out the money.

Trust me when I say that I couldn't possibly care less about what you think.

I only responded to clear up blatant falsities. Think whatever you want but at least get the facts straight.

Sure, dude, if you say so.

There was no pitch. I was bitching about how the board was ran in general. I never asked or offered to be a mod. I was nominated. I accepted. Period.

Turns out a lot of the things I was bitching about are out of a mod's control anyway.

I did think GJBC should've been banned long before he was. I did ban him. He was allowed back. Igo finally had enough and banned him himself. 

But don't let facts get in your way.

Sure, dude, if you say so. No one trusts you to moderate with any fairness. Silly victory lap posts insure that will continue to be the case. I'll leave it at that.

Begged and pleaded... LOLOLOLOL

That literally never happened.

Igo banned PhillyB, not me. 

Sure it did. I seem to remember part of your pitch was that you wanted to ban GJBC.

Well, it's certainly not the Appaloosa Model

Don't say the A word. You know what happens when you say the A word.

Get a write up in the Charlotte Observer and...

the site you're perma-banned from gets a shout out.

So he makes money and Jeremy makes money. Win/Win.

Meanwhile, the guy who begged and pleaded to be made a mod, so he could settle scores with posters he didn't like, makes victory lap posts about perma-banning people. Yikes. 

Happy for PhillyB, an actual OG, pre-crash huddle member. The Tinderbox is lamer without him.
