At least, since the Panthers have won a conference championship.

The Panthers got their conference championship rings (which probably shouldn’t even be a thing that exists).

I googled "darin gantt conference championship rings" and, oddly enough, couldn't find any mention of Gantt's now-vocal dislike of conference championship rings... until now.

Weird.

it's that participation trophy mentality. the panthers players got superbowl participation rings and now they will lose all motivation to play for a championship because millenials think that participation trophies are the same thing as winning and america is going down the tubes because of the pussification of america and entitlement by tech-addled brats who don't want to pay their dues vote for donald trump.

Anyone my age (40) who bitches about participation trophies is full of poo. If anyone remembers childhood from the late 70s/early 80s everyone had racks of participation trophies from soccer, Basketball, baseball, swimming. Highschool letter jackets are participation trophies. What we really worked for was the gold medals, etc

This would have been good, but you probably should have backed it down to about 80% to be  effective.  The 120% method makes it too obvious.  :P

I guess me being a college football fan doesn't make this such a big deal to me.

Win the SEC?  Get SEC Champion rings.  

Its a TITLE.  You won it ON THE FIELD.  And you worked DAMN HARD to do it.

In other words, DESERVED.

Don't think Gantt's pussy ass played any sports to even know the difference between a part trophy and a ring for something...he damn sure obviously didn't win.

      Lil Stanky 100% in the dot tonight... And our 2nd line has been our best offensive line this season. Maybe our 2C really was on the roster this whole time...?

      BREAKING: Panthers re-signing Nick Scott

      By flagfootballcoach28 · Posted

      That’s a grade I kind of expected tbh. I’m not a huge fan of NS, but he’s not as bad as what the huddle says he is minus the horrible game he had vs the Rams. I’ve always thought he’s often used as a scapegoat. The improved pass rush should hide his deficiencies a little bit better if he’s the game one starter. FS might have to be a position we punt on this year unless Thieneman falls to us at 19. The reality is, you're going to have a few average players in certain spots for a team with as many holes we had before free agency started. You can’t sign everyone.

      I am by no means trying to say he's a world beater. I'm saying it's trending in the right direction. Especially when measured against himself.i think the team feel the same way or else they wouldn't have picked up his option. Plus I think there is a new idea in the NFL about these young QBs. Teams give up to soon. Browns gave up to soon on baker same with the jets on Geno and darnold. Maybe they are who you thought they were in the draft process and they need more time to develop than you originally planned. Either way. I do think he is as capable as darnold is as far as you can win a championship with him. And something he does have that darnold doesn't is he is clutch.  If I need one more drive and 2 mins to go I'm betting on Bryce and I am far from a homer, just going off his game winning drives. He has that dog in him on the last drive.
