A friend asked me this over the weekend and I thought it would be easy... not so much:

 

1. Panthers
----------------
2a. Hornets
2b. Tarheel basketball
----------------
4. Baltimore Orioles
5. Tarheel football

 

My 1st was a no brainer obviously but 2nd fav team was actually really tough. I had to envision a huge loss and a huge win and my reactions to both to make a decision. In the end, I would be far more upset at the Heels losing a big game in the tourney but not so devastated if the Hornets lost a big series in the playoffs.. [so edge to the Heels, right?] But at the same time if the Hornets won a big matchup in the playoffs, simply to advance to the 2nd round or Conference Finals- I would be way happier than if the Heels got to the Final Four.

I think it has a lot to do with expectations - I expect the Heels to always be good and expect the Hornets always to collapse, but it was still fun to go back and forth with my friend [NC State fan] on who he thought his Top5 were.

1: Panthers

No need for explanation really. Obvious choice.

2: Hornets

Again. Lived here all my life so far. No brainer

3: Tarheels FB/BB

Tarheels fan all my life. Will stick true even though we have cheated

4: Tottenham Soccer? Football? Whatever you want to call it.

Started watching the BPL in 2010. Was hooked onto this team as well as my oldest brother. Who still cheers for the London team to this day. By far my favorite team in Soccer

5: UConn BB

I watched Uconn's Big East run in 2010. Was stuck on immediately. Have been a big fan ever since. I was so happy when the Hornets picked Kemba. Looks like they have made the correct decision.

Panthers are the only sports team I root for at any level in any sport and the NFL is the only sport/sports league I actively follow at all, though I do passively follow Royals baseball as well... definitely got caught up in the World Series runs the past 2 years.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
