I'm not going to lie, I sit near him and he kind of rubs me the wrong way. My boy is fascinated with him and wanted me to get him a picture next to him, the man basically didn't even respond to me while I am standing next to him. Props to being a superfan and perhaps he was having an off day but it bummed my boy out

I met him after teh game once. It does get a little tiresome. he told me it takes him 2 hours to leave the stadium.

I went to my first game last year and I saw a couple get his pic with him, he did it but he didn't look happy.

Yeah he almost has the same exposure as the players, without the benefit of showers, media time, team meetings, and a separate exit after the game to protect him from adoring fans. In other words, he's like you and me, but has to deal with the same attention a minor player does. That's a lot of stress. The one time I met Catman, he was very accomodating. Gave me a signature and a photo smiling the whole time

His gofundme says that he has had health problems, that could play a part in it.. 

I was going to say the same thing.  I thought he got really sick there for a while...not sure what his illness was, they didn't say or I honestly can't remember.  I think he missed a few games because of it?  Again I could be mistaken.  In either case, if he was not feeling well that particular day, it may be the reason.  I have to imagine being the Panthers "#1 Fan" would be tiresome after so many years of doing it.  At this point, it's almost like he just can not stop doing it and would get even more attention if he suddenly stopped.  Kinda one of them thing's you gotta hang on to your life once you have done it so long.  I would honestly hate it after doing it for so long...especially good years like this, you would have all these new fans wanting to take picture, sign autograph's constantly.  I could understand why some days, if he did not feel well, he would respond in this way.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
