If you haven't heard it yet, listen to it now.  One of the best I have heard.

Its panther related because both the panthers and Chris bring tears to your eyes by their performance.

 

 

chknwing,  you're the second man I've heard say Botti will bring tears to your eyes.  Is it really that moving?

I'd much rather see that than some pop star who can't sing a lick without autotune mangle our nation's anthem while trying to show off their mediocre vocal talent.

This guy plays the anthem on a trumpet with a bunch of trills and doodads and flourishes, it's really really moving.

 

Some pop girl sings it with a bunch of trills and doodads and flourishes, just sing the dang song ain't no need for all that.

It must be the most nerve racking thing in the world to sing to a crowd of ravenous piranha just waiting for you to fug up a line so they can outrage and put your reputation on a spitfire

There's a gigantic difference between what this guy did and what typical pop singers do.  He makes good use of passing tones, adds subtle ghost notes with great articulation, while still hitting the longer important notes.  Singers have a tendency to 'trill and doodad' on those important notes, which makes it sound off.  Adding variation to those longer notes is one mark of a bad singer(i.e. they aren't capable of holding that note).

Those of you here in the Triangle (and those of you willing to make the drive if you loved this performance that much)... he'll be at DPAC in Durham on November 16. Among those performing with him that night is pianist Taylor Eigsti, who happens to be my good friend's cousin (and is unfortunately a 49ers fan... haha).

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves.

      why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.

      McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
