I wonder if he is still a millionaire when he reaches 40.

 

You're right.  I completely forgot that we're dealing with a professional athlete and the bankruptcy rate for them once they're out of the league.  Well, they'll have a good couple of years.

Allegedly

 

Go Catamounts.  Meant to chat with you about how WCU nearly upset Alabama this past November.  Damn that second half rule (the one that says you have to play it).

 

 if he is determined to be innocent, it could not come at a better time---less than a month before free agency.  I am sure that other teams will be interested, but his $14m x 5 price tag (or whatever it was) is probably going to be lowered.  He just earned $13m because he finds women on Crackhead.com, so does he feel that he owes the Panthers a discount and first dibs.  I think he would come back, but at what price?  CJ making $20m this year does not help.

 

HOWEVER, if anyone thinks GH coming back is a possibility and they want to consider the circumstantial evidence, all you have to do is listen to DG--the man who knows more than anyone what counting on GH is all about.  He drafted Ealy (probably because GH was franchised and he was not offering him a long-term deal) and he talked about DE in this year's draft.  Does not sound like a guy who wants Hardy around.  Of course, this is old stuff, but dreamers need to be reminded.

  1. According to a study cited by Sports Illustrated in 2009, 78 percent of former NFL players are bankrupt or undergoing severe financial stress within two years of retirement from football, and 60 percent of former NBA players are bankrupt within five years of retirement.Jan 22, 2014
Reasons?  Not sure, but I imagine Crack Whores is pretty high on the list.

Hardy is gonna be found innocent and sign a contract with the Panthers.

 

 

I hope you are right about both statements. If we can sign him at the right price ,we would be nuts not to do so. Greg Hardy is no angel but he's one heck of a difference maker on a football team,just hope it's ours.

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Week 16 - Other NFL Games

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
