At the beginning of the 2013 season, I purchased a Panthers battle flag. Flown proudly over two seasons, I learned that the material and construction is not meant to endure the elements well. At the close of last season, I noticed it was time to replace it. Despite the insistence of the  ol' lady, I rolled the flag up on it's pole and tucked it away into the corner of the garage with intentions of replacing! 

Fast forward to Sept. of this year, first week of to be exact, I was cleaning the garage, clearing out old racing parts and gear when I noticed "the flag." It seemed to be in a little rougher shape for it's clip eyelet had torn and it was stained somewhat from tire prepping chemicals.

The wife is a neat freak and would despise the idea of this ugly rag flying on the front of our porch. But, would I be able to get another flag in time? I had 4 days before the start of the season, not to mention I was in thrash mode for an upcoming race. "Fug it!", I thought as I proceeded out of the garage and poled that ugly ass flag by the steps of our house!

I will chance divorce before a Panthers flag is absent from my home during the NFL season. It's ugly! It's torn! It's stained! It's broken! It's at 0 mast! It's still flying and epitomizes the 2015 Carolina Panthers. It's purrrfect!

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
