What will it take...for people to shut up?

While I whole heartedly agree that Jake's recent performance is appalling and we need a new direction for the team in the future, Fox has made it clear that he will be starting Delhomme Sunday.

Therefore, I see no point in bashing him as much as people on these forums have. It's not going to make Fox start Moore, it's not going to make us suddenly have enough cap room to sign someone who could start ahead of him, it's not going to get Richardson to axe Fox, it's not going to make the 5 year extension we just signed with Jake disappear, it's just pointless negativity that could hurt the confidence of the team as a whole.

I'm not slurping, nor I'm a being a homer; I'm just being rational. Everyone here has a reason to be mad about last week, and our offense in general, but at what point does all this negativity become detrimental to the team?

Things WON'T change before Sunday, and they're likely not to really change until the off season, based on how this team is run. Richardson is no Al Davis, thank god, so we're not going to turnover the entire coaching and management mid-season, which means (knowing Fox) Jake is here to stay. Unless Jake continues to string together colossal melt-downs, then we're not going to change switch horses mid-stream, it's just not something the coaches or management will do, sorry.

Insulting him and bashing him doesn't help, it's embarrassing that the fans booed him, and the way we can't be supportive of the team. Please shut the hell up about it, until things can actually be influenced. Richardson has given the reins to Fox and Hurney for another season, deal with it, we have no other choice, until the off season and until then let's try and stay supportive as long as we can bear to.

Why is it embarrasing that fans booed at a disappointing performance?

I've never understood why booing = bad fans. Maybe one of you can explain this to me.

I agree though, you play with the team you've got. Jake's our boy. As long as he's in a panthers uniform I'll support him.

Haha, I guess it did sound a little demanding at times.

Just kinda tired of the same useless negative crap that continues to be posted.

Hope some people understand.

well, if it's the sheer number of threads being made making the same point, i agree, we should have one big colossal thread for people to vent, even if it would be up to 1000 replies by now.

Fans are supporters. Booing them is not supporting them, it's actually detrimental to the team. So therefore booing means, as a fan, you do not support the team.

I can deal with shouting after a bad play, groaning as the fourth interception unveils or having a heated discussion with those round you, about how bad the team is. They are spur of the moment things which accurately portray a persons emotions when the team they support, plays badly. Booing on the other hand is a concerted effort to make one or more people feel like crap. It is not an immediate reaction, it is a premeditated attempt to actually make people feel and play worse. Why oh why would you do that to your own team?!

Considering that, how is booing something NOT to be embarressed about?

Oh and REP for the OP, couldn't agree more with your sentiments

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By Basbear · Posted

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Basbear · Posted

      THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
