Thought I on the broadcast Sunday that the Nfl will pay for replacement turf for the Championship game?  Anyone else remember that?  

The turf was just replaced during our playoff bye. Doubt it would be done again.

I don't know that the NFL pays to replace it. I thought it was that the team's grounds crew does the maintenance on all games until the Championship game, at which point the NFL send their own grounds crew to check on it to make sure it's up to par. So I'm sure the NFL has to have someone at BOA by now looking into.

escpecially with the way the announcers and the other team made it an issue.

Another interesting fact is the NFL brings in their very own security and personnel during any championship games. Them along with the regular yearly personnel the Panthers also have staffed.

Ya know what, this is what homefield advantage is all about.  If you got a fast team, keep a fast field turf, if you have a team dedicated to the run and slobberknocker football, keep a slightly spongy field and slow them down.  Opponents and "football purists" can bitch all they want, but this is our field and this is how we play football and we earned this by winning 16 games (thusfar), if you don't like it, stop us during the season.

Not whining by any means, but I have to say, the field has looked much worse this year than in years past when we have won awards for having one of the better fields in the NFL. I wonder if the weather or any other factors have played a hand. Methinks the grounds crew will experience a little bit of turnover this offseason.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.

      Should definitely look to trade him in the offseason. Some team will fork over draft picks thinking they can turn his career around, especially considering what happened to Mayfield and Darnold after they left here. I think a lot of people will be surprised at how high of a pick he would fetch too. There's a dozen guys you could bring in to match (or exceed) Bryce's production for 1/10th of what his 5th year option is going to cost. Let some other dumb team pay that (and ship us draft picks for the privilege). Dump Dalton too while you're at it, start the QB room over from scratch.
