The "Ask a Panther Fan" Thread


Hawk

Recommended Posts

all I've learned so far is that there's no such place as Carolina and that a Panther is the same as a Jaguar and a Puma and a Leopard and that most panther fans are really defensive!

 

It's that kinda-but-not-really panther logo shaped thing.

With the exception of the Florida Panther (which is actually a cougar), all Panthers are black.  Panther is literally a term for a black cat of the panthera genus... typically a black jaguar, leopard, and sometimes a cougar.

 

It's possible there are black cougars in NC, which is probably where the sightings come from... and could be called a panther, even though it's really not part of the panthera genus.

There are, for sure.  Most people don't believe it, and you'll never find any kind of cougar population, noted on population maps.  They are here though, and I have an uncle who has pictures of a black one at one of his hunting spots.  We had a huge gray one who's territory overlapped our property.  You talk about some scary poo to hear at night...  that growl, or whatever the hell it is they do, always fuged with me.  The bobcats and foxes were just annoying to listen to, but you knew when that big fuger was in town.

Awww bless your heart. Just ask your QB if Carolina is a real place. Then ask him why there's an imaginary mascot on his helmet. Finally, we have manners in the South and aren't raised to be offensive.

 

Take care and try not to get caught between the next earthquake and eruption up there.

all's fair in love and war....

 

I'll start....

 

 

can one of you please tell me where the hell Carolina is?  I've looked on the map, google, GPS....all I know is they have a hockey team and a football team but I'd be damned if I know where it is?

 

and part 2...

 

assuming this place is in the good ole US of A....is it really crawling with panthers....or is there another reason you named your team after an obscure animal that doesn't even live in this obscure place?

 

thanks...Love Hawk

 

The Province of Carolina is the region where North and South Carolina continue to sit.  It was established in the mid 1600's and was named after King Charles the 1st.

    • So, objectively, you'd say from a holistic review of Rico's performance and the team overall there were at least a dozen players on the team that performed at least as well if not better in their roles?
    • I'm not a huge fan of BY, but he does have some clutchness developing
    • While you're correct, people are just sick of being told, "you don't understand this, you're dumb" despite what their eyes say. This applies to the Panthers and anything else in life. This board can be a miserable place, but this isn't the old days anymore because Social Media & Reddit have hijacked old-school forum users.  I have in the last year or so taken a massive step back from Social Media & Reddit. Deleted accounts on both, I only have X/Twitter now. But I was looking for an outlet for Panthers talk and I did not want to do that on X much at all. There are only two legitimate outlets for that I've found, here and SB Nation. SB Nation I used to partake in, but they absolutely bumble-f*cked the comments section, and I like the setup of the posts + comments, as opposed to article + comments. Also, as others have pointed out, being a Panthers fan has been a horrendous existence since Cam left. Just an awful crew of coaches, draft picks, trading away great players, etc. It's been miserable.  Ever since Tepper bought the team, I hoped that he commit to a full rebuild. He never did, he thought there were shortcuts and so did Rhule. This hamstrung us for years, and then he massively overstepped with the BY trade.  This ruined the team building, because there was no depth, and then it ruined nuanced BY discussions because of the insane haul we gave up. He will never live up to that, I think many people are finally wrapping their heads around that now which is good. The best thing for this board to get better is for the Panthers to win more, draft well, and to stay committed to crawling through this Andy Dufrense poop-pipe to escape the depths of NFL hell. It will be ugly and stink along the way, but you can see already this year if we commit to drafting then the team and the vibes can turn around quicker than you think.  I am extremely optimistic about the draft class this season, it's something to watch, talk about, and celebrate. It also gives Dan and I think by extension Dave Canales more of a leash, which I think we need to give them and grant them the time to turn this boat around.
