I admit it..I just switched to the Panthers!

I'm a life long Dolphins fan who has suffered through 30+ years of mediocrity, frustration, anger, shattered hope, and low expectations. I never imagined that I would switch my team. I'd stuck with them this long, right?

But after the antics of Arian Foster and Kenny 'Take Knee, Drop Easy TD Passes' Stills and the other jerks, I was on the fence. But a week ago, I was wearing my Dolphins hat, and I encountered an old man wearing a WWII Veterans hat, and he glared at me. That started to push me off the fence, but what sealed the deal was when I got home, I read that Miami's owner, Stephen 'I Have No Idea What I'm Doing' Ross came out in support of what the players did.

As far as I'm concerned, this isn't about free speech. The players are there to play football. Its their job. If you, me, or anyone else got in their customer's faces and went on a political rant, we'd lose our job, and rightfully so. Maybe they should concentrate on playing football, rather than causing distractions for a bottom feeding team. In the Seattle game, Stills dropped a TD pass that was put right in his hands. He was wide open, and there was nobody near him for 15 yards. He catches it, Miami beats Seattle. Yesterday, during their attempt at a comeback, he dropped another wide open TD pass. That would have tied the game. I didn't watch that game. I was too busy watching Carolina.

So, why Carolina? I lived in Charlotte for several years, Fayetteville for 2 years, and SC for about 6 years. I was in Charlotte when the Panthers went to their first Super Bowl, and I adopted them as my #2 team. Each year, I'd watch more and more of their games, and I'd root for them over anybody unless it was Miami. I've been to more of their games than any other team other than Miami...although in 2009, they played Miami. I was there for that one, but I've seen them play the Falcons twice, once in Charlotte, once in Atlanta. Also saw them play the Giants and Saints. Every game that I saw them play live, they won...except for 2009.

So, I have history with them. Over the past few years, it seemed more like I had 2 teams. An AFC and an NFC team. But, now that I've made the switch, its permanent. I won't be doing it again, even if Carolina goes through a bad slump..I watched every game in 2007 when the Phins went 1-15. I was disappointed in Miami for allowing this crappy behavior, now I could care less. Screw them, and Go Panthers! Glad to be here.

I dont mind new fans such as kids, or fans who are new to the game...

 

but this is the kind of fan that pisses me off. A lot of us have suffered through shitty times as panther fans and we are finally seeing what we all wanted to see. Now this guy and a bunch of other fans are hopping ship, taking the easy way out, dude fug that poo

 

dude, you are the definition of a banwagoner. I have no respect for you as it pertains to football or fan hood. I bet you hop off the banwagon the second the trend points down.

I can see your point and agree to some extent. I've always been loyal to my team not matter what. But at least he used to live in the Carolinas. It's not as bad as the POS in Charlotte that became Seahawks fans a few years back. I'll cut this guy some slack.

Welcome.

    • Umm yeah. When did he get it done at the right time? I seem to remember a 4-6 finish and needing Atlanta to win our way into the playoffs but whatever.   
    • I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.
    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "
