My 4 year old was jeered by another 4 year old for wearing a Panther jacket this AM

Well, i was going to repress this story, but today's events kind of justify it.  I was dropping my youngest off at daycare this morning.  He was wearing his Panther coat like he does everyday its cold.  We walk into the room and this little girl yells "Boo Panthers! We hate the Panthers!".  He looked at me with the sads.  The teacher said her parents are Packer fans.

 

I give you, the state of the franchise.

I went to Chipotle to grab lunch yesterday...

 

Dude is putting my lettuce on my burrito bowl and looks up to ask what else I want and sees my hat... just start shaking his head.

 

 

He says "I don't want to talk about the Panthers... do you?"

 

I said, "Nope"

 

 

He smiles that same dejected smile all true Panthers fans have mastered.

 

Here's to you Chipotle guy.

So I'm checking out at Wal-Mart and I'm talking to the cashier, who is a friend, about the Panthers loss this Sunday. I was telling him how the last few minutes played out and a cute asian woman popped up behind me and finished the rest and added her own input.

Needless to say, I fell in love.

Well her moms cooch is is called lambeau field because the grass is dead, ground is frozen, and no man wants to play there 9 months out of the year.

I've had to woosah plenty of times due to the Panthers.  Most recently wore a Cam jersey the other week and some random dude felt some kind of way about Cam.  I was at work so I couldn't accost him the way I wanted to.  He was a Raiders fan.  Leave that team in Oakland.  I'm a grown man though, sorry your 4 year old had to go through that

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
