Have not seen this mentioned.

Often the Panthers  have a flyover at the end of the National Anthem.  Really cool.  The flight crews involved come to the stadium and are on field during the 3rd qtr.  During a TV timeout...they line up on the home goal line and are introduced to the stadium crowd.  This past Sunday, when they were introduced...as usual...they received a very nice ovation from the crowd.  The Panthers D was on the field with their backs to them.   Several of the players turned around and applauded the flight crews. With everything going on lately...I think this deserves some recognition.

No, we could not see it this time because of the cloud cover...but we sure could hear it.  But...that was not my point.

Don't worry about it. Electro/Fiz hasn't said a nice thing about anything since the Reagan administration. Hope that guy finds something to be happy about someday.

Our service men and women need all the applause they can get.  At my age I've seen the poor treatment of returning military from Vietnam.  I've felt the hatred.  I've witnessed, through my own sons, the return of our military from our battles and the accolades they are given.  I am proud to have served.  I am proud of all that have served.  I am proud of all that support those who've served.  But most of all, I am proud of you, ladypanther, for your observation and statement.  Well done, my lady.

If that's what you think, you're either too young to remember, have Alzheimer's, weren't paying attention, or were part of the problem. It happened...period, end of story, not fake news.

One of the reasons I love the Panthers, at the risk of sounding political when I truly don’t mean to, is that come hell or high water they never fail to show utmost appreciation and respect for our military and our flag. I’m not sure any other team in the league publicly displays service members 3-4 times per game on the big screens. I’m not sure any team in the league get the crowd reaction that we do -> a standing ovation every single time. Granted, I’ve only been to one other NFL stadium so it’s hard to say for sure. But in ATL, they showed a group of service members once, but it seemed like a special occasion. I applauded with all the Falcons fans like our teams had just scored. Some things are bigger than football, ya know?

Get sh*t on. I don’t care if you’re trolling or serious. Either way your an asshole.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
