Has anyone considered the possibility the Panthers do the same thing the Orioles did?

Play in an empty stadium?

Ridiculous?  Of course.  But there is precedent.

 

Apples and oranges.

I feel like baseball is a game that can be played in front of an empty stadium.  It's strange, but it's doable.  Plus, there are 162 games in a season, so one game played in front of nobody isn't that big deal.

Football is meant to be played in front of a crowd.  It's so much more of an emotional sport, and players are used to either getting fired up in front of their home crowd or getting fired up in front of an enemy crowd.  Playing in an empty stadium would just drain the emotion out of both teams.  Also, one game in football is a huge deal since there are only 16 in a season, so that game means so much more than a single baseball game.

in europe they play soccer matches "behind closed doors".  it isn't a regular occurrence, but it does happen a lot more often than you see here.  i don't think there would be a need to do that here unless therre are active protests/riots going on saturday night and a strong sense that they will occur again on sunday with fears that their would be disruptions in the crowds.  in any case, if this is a possibility, then moving the game out of charlotte makes more sense to me.  just not to fuging minnesota!

so, the deceased man had the gun hidden and the police officer just got lucky he shot this guy he thought was unarmed, but wound up being armed?  

or the police force colluded to drop a gun at his feet (black cop, black chief, a well integrated police force according to statistics) because, after all, cops always ride around with guns other than their own, so when they inevitably kill the unarmed folks they are hunting down they can just place one at the scene?

quite the view you got there, though i may have filled in a bit for you, but the positions you seem to be taking seem to point to the pictures i have painted.  it is this kind of radical thought process which stops the good conversations that could be had well before there is even a "hello".

It happens but your point is not invalid.

So the opinions of a very small minority is supposed to represent the entirety of a group? 

 

Is Dylann Roof the Jessie Jackson for White People? 

People like to paint BLM as this tightly organized group. Just because someone uses the slogan BLM doesn't mean they speak for the actual group. It has become a catch phrase.

Yes, the base of BLM use the movement like it should be, but a select few use it like it is being used now in NC.  They ruin it for all.

    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
    • Me, signing up for FanDuel Network, and then canceling FanDuel Network:
    • Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
