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

I lived in Florida for a lot longer. My biggest gripe is with the ownership of the team. If Ross had kept his mouth shut, I'd probably still be a fan. But, in supporting this, he made my decision for me.

A bandwagon fan will switch his team with the changing of the champion. I didn't do this. Not to mention, I can't afford to replace gear every year. lol It's going to take a while to get new gear even once let alone every couple years.

We are NFC champs. Look, if you stick around and are a loyal panther fan the rest of your life, great. Nbd either way. But you cannot expect to not get at least some poo. 

 

You fit the shoe of a banwagoner. Im sorry but you do. In the end its nbd but this is a panther forum where dumbasses like me come to express their opinions lol

Sticking around and being a Panthers fan for the rest of my life IS the plan. And believe me, I wasn't expecting a friendly welcome from everyone. I knew I'd take some lumps, and I know that there's a bigger microscope on me than usual newbies because I switched teams. I don't care if the Panthers lose the rest of their games, and drop the next 10 next year. There is no going back.

Welcome aboard man. I hope these lunkheads don't give you too much grief, as there is absolutely nothing wrong with switching allegiances when you disagree with ownership or the team's outside actions.

 

Case in point, I was a die-hard Dallas Cowboys fan from about the age of 7, up until 1993. Went through the good years, the okay years, the bad-omg-whoisthisidiotAikmanheonlywononefriggingameallseasonlong years, and the Superbowl years.

When that prick bought out the franchise and fired Landry, I held on. However, when he then fired Jimmy after winning back to back Superbowls, I was done with Jones. When the allegations of rape, drugs, and all sorts of other illegal and immoral acts came out about the players, I was done with the Cowboys for good. I had had it with ownership, management, and the players themselves. So, I switched.

 

Lucky for me, that's right about the time the Carolinas were awarded a new franchise, and since I'd been an NFC guy my whole life, no way was I switching to that weak-ass AFC, lol. I've been Panthers fan since, and have loved every minute of this roller-coaster ride we call a team. We have an incredible owner who has set in place a family environment that players love to play in, has hired a coach and gave him the chance to establish himself when everyone (including me sometimes) felt the hot seat wasn't hot enough, and who has a genuine bond with his guys out there. Just ask Olsen about the time Big Cat took an extra mile to help out his newborn with a heart condition, I'm sure he'd tell you we have a great owner here for sure. Just ask TD about who he wants to win 51 for, along with Mills.

 

I'm damn proud of this team, from top to bottom. Switching over has been the best decision of my football-watching life, and I couldn't be happier that I did. So, welcome to Panthers Nation - glad you're on board with us!

You were one of the people around before the team was good. I don't even recognize half of the people who post on here anymore. They're the same as the dolphins fan.

Tell me about it... btw, who are you anyways? I honestly don't remember the name before last year, so if you switched it up from a prior, I'd be curious what that was.

 

I've been on this site since it was started, which is really kind of sad to be honest, so I've seen lots of folks come and go. Doesn't mean I'm going to be "holier-than-thou" to anyone new, though. Compared to guys like Mr Scot and I, all of you guys are still pups in a way, and nothing wrong with that at all.
