I want to be put on 'The Map' by this time next year.


Recommended Posts

Alabama used to be pro New Orleans. Minds are a-changing.

this map (https://interactive.twitter.com/nfl_followers2014/) says that Alabama is beginning to be a Panther stronghold ;)

EDIT: well I thought it did. oh well. it used to before the season ended. but I guess this map updates in real time because there are a hell of alot more blue counties in eastern NC than last time I saw this map. not that I'm complaining!!

 

EDIT #2: if you select only the Panthers, you can see how all of Alabama has more Panthers fans than the rest of the country outside of the home states.

being that they don't have any pro teams, Alabama doesn’t care as much about the NFL. They are all in on Auburn and Alabama (Alabama has the majority). On Sundays, they cheer for teams that have the biggest stars from Auburn or Bama. Auburn fans will cheer for teams like Carolina for Cam (and now CAP too). Bama fans will cheer for Saints (Ingram), Packers (Lacy), and so on.

That was after the 2013 season IIRC.  There were actually Panther bandwagons popping up in a lot of places on that map after 2013.

 

Didn't take long for 'em to hop off that bandwagon after 2014 though it seems.

 

Hell, half the country acts like Cam is some garbage QB after ONE bad season (and it wasn't even "bad" it was literally average... his first non above average-to-good season) where he was hurt all year with a completely new receiving corps which he had no chemistry with and the worst offensive line in the league for most the season.  It's pretty ridiculous how quickly the general NFL fan's opinion changes from season to season.

How every county in NC and SC is not solid blue is puzzling. It's a disgrace is what it is.

agreed. but we are rapidly gaining more fans. they will start as bandwagon fans or children who grow up with the Panthers around, but in 10 years time, our fanbase will be youthful and rockin! 

 

this, of course, is predicated on the Panthers continuing to string together competitive seasons.

It's A LOT better than it used to be, trust me.

 

South Carolina used to be like 75% Steelers on that map not even a year and a half ago.  Sizeable chunks of NC also used to be be Steelers/Dallas/Redskins.  Now they're both almost completely Panther blue.

 

Good to see South Carolina is finally starting to get with the fugin' program.  I've even noticed in person when I go to SC this past year there seems to suddenly be a lot more Panthers representation than usual.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
