I feel sorry for third down man. He still doesnt get it that most of the crowd doesnt even know what 3rd down means.

Code of Conduct

DO show up for the game! You can't do much in your living room!

DON'T wait for someone else to get up first to get the fan defense into the game. Take the initiative!

DO get up on every down during the Panther's defense, not just on 3rd Down.

DON'T cuss out the Panthers if they fail to stop the opposing offense, or even lose the game at that. They're OUR team for Pete's sake!

DO let anyone around you that complains you're making too much noise that this is a football game, not their living room!

DON'T cuss or use harsh profanity while being a Third Down Man! Children may be around, and you've got to have class.

DO have patience with fans sitting around you. At first they may not want to participate with you on 3rd Down, but don't give up. They'll come around, especially if the team's winning.

DON'T leave for concessions or the bathroom during the Panther's defense - you might miss that awesome defensive play that you could have taken credit for! Yep, that's right! Third Down Man takes all the credit for a defensive stop!

DO bang on your seat to make as much noise as possible. If the seat next to you is empty, then bang both of them!

DON'T get into fights or shouting matches with opposing team's fans - keep it light or ignore them. You will probably bear the brunt of their ribbing or jeering, but you'll be taking it for the team and all the Panther fans around you. How you hold yourself during the tough times will show what a leader you are.

And chances are they will get thrown out in no time. Under no circumstances should you be ejected from the stands during the game - we need every Third Down Man out there to the end!

DO respect the stadium's security guards. If they feel that you are being too rowdy, then take your enthusiasm down a couple of notches. You don't want to get thrown out!

DON'T start whining if we start losing or getting behind in the score. Third Down Man is not a whiner. Stay positive or hold your tongue. No one around you wants to hear negative comments - it's just a game!

DO buy a t-shirt! That way you can be easily identified as a Third Down Man!

DON'T leave the game in the 3rd Quarter! That is the worse thing a Third Down Man can do, since there are going to be plenty more 3rd Down's left in the game. Even if there's no chance of winning, you can always practice for the next game.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
