What will new ownership do with the JR statue?

After having woken up to the news this morning and things evolving so quickly, do you think the statue stays or goes? With the current atmosphere sweeping every industry,  will the new ownership want this team to be associated with a previous owner accused of abuse and discrimination or wipe the slate clean?  Would it be proper to keep it standing regardless?

I hate to see the black eye that this will give the organisation as the first NFL team to have to deal with this on the ownership side of things. Team just can't catch a break ....from Caruth to this, it's been a bumpy ride. Hopefully a new start will begin a new era.

Allegations aside, I hope they take it down because it's hideous and looks out of place.

The panthers on each side are awesome. Could cut those off and put them someplace else, like along the path to the practice field, entrance to City Hall, Heath Evan's front yard.....

Take that statue down, asap.     When someone(s) buys the Panthers, it will also be their responsibility to change the culture, and it starts with this stupid statue and then we can move on.    You can't change the culture of a business/franchise while everyone sees this goofy thing every day (and it was stupid and too much BEFORE this news came out).

I just don't know. He may end up being a real scumbag but he did bring the NFL to the Carolinas. At least, keep him out of the Ring of Honor.

Fun fact, the city and it’s tax payers, demand, and PSL owners have much more to do with a team being brought to a city than one single man.

Should be a statue dedicated to any of those.

    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet. 
    • oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
