The new (released today) FOX ONE app will allow you access to watch your Local FOX Station - similar to how the Paramount Plus app allows you access to watch your local CBS station It'll cost you $20/month for the privilege, but if you're having trouble accessing the over-the-air antenna for FOX, this could be an option to consider the new ESPN app will give you access to ESPN content, but not to the local ABC affiliate. A reminder: if you currently get ESPN via some TV provider (cable, satellite, youtube, etc) then you should be able to use the new ESPN app via your provider login, no additional payment required

ever since the "throw a drink on a fan" incident (and the random drive-by in Dilworth), he definitely HAS been mostly quiet. I like to think that was when Nicole (or others with similar influence) told him to get his head out of his butt. As far as I can tell since hiring Dan/Dave, he hasn't done anything publicly more than show up/work mandatory Owner-appearance events.

Reminder to always cancel your SunTic every season so you qualify for any new renewal deal that comes up If you're a local Panthers fan, you will ALWAYS have the Panthers game broadcast on a local TV station, no matter what premium service is carrying the game nationally

Meh. It's preseason. Just don't want to be embarrassed about the showing

THIS. Lots of coverage about how he didn't have a chance to see Andy (or anyone) run the offensive schemes that were being handed to him in a live game scenario. Once he saw those things and how he could/should handle situations, he came out of the benching with a much better head

thanks for the recap. Started to watch this yesterday until I saw it was an hour (didn't have that kind of time)

Excerpt here, if youre interested https://time.com/5125421/gregg-popovich-san-antonio-spurs-success/

Sounds like Canales may be running a playbook from the business book THE CULTURE CODE, which describes how to create self-functioning, well-producing teams of people. Ex: there's a chapter about how the Spurs coaching staff worked their team into (at the time) one of the winningest teams in the NBA (really short version? "Improve the mindset, improve relationships: get better results")

Zod need to add an appropriate "LOL" pie option

Panthers released their Jersey schedule. Based solely on uniform color, what's your game win/loss prediction? (Boo: there's no indicator of whether the "Black" would be "All Black" or not.) (Also Boo: that's a lot of the White jerseys in the mix. Everyone knows the Black or Blue rock more)

There's FanFest content posted on BlueSky, if that helps

For $20, is this collection any good? (Reddit seems to say "mostly", so doublechecking) thousands of pages in all!—including fan favorites like Red Sonja, Project Superpowers, Army of Darkness, Vampirella, and many more. https://www.humblebundle.com/books/dynamite-20th-anniversary-20000page-mega-bundle-books-encore

Deal expected to be announced on Wednesday ESPN is expected to have access to RedZone, NFL Network, seven more regular-season games, the NFL’s fantasy football business, as well as the potential to integrate special features (including betting) and potentially more assets. The agreement coincides with ESPN’s forthcoming direct-to-consumer service that will formally launch in the next few weeks." The NFL may receive up to 10 percent of ESPN equity, sources confirmed In the ESPN family of networks, NFL Network could be looked upon similarly to the SEC Network. The SEC offers programming 24/7 about the league, while ESPN, the main channel, dedicates significant airtime to it as well. The same sort of setup, with on-air personalities being used across brands, is very possible. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6530655/2025/08/01/nfl-espn-media-deal-tv-broadcast/

well.... if ATL/NO/TB are playing each other, we'll hope for the team that wins will help our own standings in the division. It's not exactly cheering FOR someone as much as it's cheering AGAINST another

I've never had a bad experience as a Panthers fan in Tampa. It's almost always a fun time

Already done https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2025/07/28/deion-sanders-depend-underwear-bladder-cancer-colorado-football/85415232007/

Bucs continue to have issues -- they have a league-leading 464lb player who was just put in "non football injury reserve" list due to his weight. The good news is that he's getting the help he needs; carrying that much around can't be good long-term for the knees or other important parts https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45821897/bucs-watson-nfl-heaviest-player-trying-get-healthier

can't tell what the twitter post is (twitter is blocked by corporate), but saw the Deion news last night He's right -- it's a good reminder for everyone to see their doctors regularly and get ALL the things checked out

for those who can't see the Twitter post, I'm assuming this post is about the list published in February with Greg and TD? https://sports.yahoo.com/10-great-nfl-players-eligible-035121461.html

Finally was able to watch the YouTube post of the Supermen video. It was really well done. Curious how they couldn't get NFL clearance for showing specific game clips, as one would think it'd fall under fair use "news and analysis" criteria. Maybe it was related to the number of minutes of NFL footage they'd need overall which hit a threshold that went beyond a news and analysis criteria. (shrug)

Sunday Ticket is still available for retail establishments And good sports bars should be using a master control video panel to feed a single input out to various TVs rather than having individual tuners/streaming boxes

Thx for the excerpt (hadn't been posted over at this thread) From a pricing perspective, ESPN needs to charge more than the ~$13/subscriber they're currently getting from cable companies for their standalone streaming service. Because for a sports-minded person with a cable subscription, it would end up costing more to go streaming only than it would to just keep the cable

Will be based in Charlotte. I'll expect to see the Panthers to show up somehow (based on previous promotional-related episodes)

Hopefully there was a behind-the-scenes chat with Dan/Dave/Tep to say "let football people football" - which appears to correlate to the perception that Tep has been more hands-off in their world vs where he was earlier It may not be much, but if there is a cause-effect then we could give sincere/honest thanks to Frank for his contribution to that improvement
