Panthers pulling puppet strings on Cam when it comes to political issues??

Dude, I can somewhat understand where your coming from on this.

But you're entering actual football threads complaining about the social discussion threads. Ease up a bit, it's going to be a trending discussion whether you like it or not.

I have zero problem with people discussing it. People can talk about it to their hearts content.

But actual football threads get moved out of this forum for no other reason than that they're not primarily about the Panthers. The same "don't click on it" logic could be applied to those threads if desired.

More to the point, these threads always wind up with people getting hot and angry and any actual discussion just descends into name calling and accusations.

Why leave that in a football forum?

I just don't get this logic.  If you don't want to discuss the role of politics in football that is literally all over every sports and national media right now, do NOT click a topic that says, "Panthers pulling puppet strings on Cam when it comes to political issues??"

It is very easy on this board to keep your head in the sand and believe these issues are not affecting the NFL by simply following that common sense approach.  And you want it easier?

This IS Panthers related.  

 

Ask Coach Rivera.

Look back at what he said when he was asked about this in a recent press conference.

Well to be fair, if your standard for a thread in the Panthers section is that people shouldn't be getting "hot and angry", whelp, looks like we're never having another gameday thread lol.

Granted.

But for me it's like coach Rivera said. A lot of folks watch and enjoy football as a way of escaping daily troubles.

The Panthers forum is supposed to be for the fun and enjoyment of discussing Panthers football. Nobody in here is changing the world, or changing anybody's mind for that matter.

I get your point about the football experience being an escape of sorts. But reality still has to set in at some point. Whether that be opposing defensive players literally trying to give our franchise QB a brain injury on national television just to win a game, or the prevalence of social issues dating back decades in dire need of attention.

All I know is that the more political the NFL becomes, the less I'm going to support it. These protests are accomplishing nothing but to divide the country even more than it already is. There is no way in hell this will help the players,the  NFL, or the Panthers in any way shape or form. And BTW, you can find  videos of cops, both black and white, being slaughtered by black men if you look for them. It works both ways.

And they are punished by going to jail when they kill these cops.

Well, I'm sure it's not fun for fans who come on here with a different opinion than yours and you & others are condescending towards them just for having a different opinion. Those fans aren't whining about how you might ruin the enjoyment for them, so you need to stop whining and leave the thread if it's a topic you don't want to discuss. It's literally that simple.

Panthers? No.  The NFL?  I think they most definitely are.  How?  Keep talking and the league can go straight after your head with no penalties.  Makes having good games a little harder.

Hey now, littlesmitty hype videos last year said Cam had no strings lol

Lol at the huddle becoming unbearable with these topics. There's only been 4 or 5 topics on this. Like it or not, this is Panther related because it involves our QB. Also, this is being discussed nationally. If you don't like the topic or thread, move on to the next. Simple. So many of y'all also have All Pro, so go discuss what you want in there. Many of y'all in here are uncomfortable when Cam is discussed much, anyways.

AMEN

Well if this becomes the norm for Panther talk then I'll stop supporting this board and the Panthers. I lived without message boards and football, among many other creature comforts, when I was deployed years ago and I can live without it now. I have absolutely no use for anybody who disrespects our flag and our country. Anybody who doesn't like it here is free to leave anytime they want. Nobody is building any walls to keep you in the USA.

Thank god I don't demand of my sports, film, and TV entertainers that they toe my political line.

It would be one helluva boring life watching Monster Truck races all the time.
