Why Does the League, and Seemingly the World Hate Us?

I hate to play the victim, but it really can't be overlooked anymore.  Why Does the NFL always shaft us in the biggest spots?  Why don't we ever get questionable calls in our favor when it matters most, instead of them going against us?  2013 playoffs against the Niners, SB50, and yesterday...  all had egregious errors in officiating that essentially took the game out of our hands.  Throw in all of 2016's head hunting on Cam and the continued blind eye the officials turn to any excessive hit on Cam despite numerous players and teams openly stating their plan to stop him is to rough him up and injure him.

As if all of that isn't insulting enough, I get a notification on my phone today from Google Newsstand notifying me of Panthers news and the headline I see from a national news publication is, "Panthers should face steep penalty for handling of concussion protocol."  It's from the New York Daily News, and I'm not linking it because I don't want to give them traffic.

Are you fuging serious?  

Did the idiot that wrote that article even watch the game?  How about we talk about the hit that put Cam in that position.  Let that had been a "traditional" QB taking that hit and that's an automatic 15 yard penalty for unnecessary roughness.  But, aside from that, Cam never appeared unconscious or out of his faculties.  Meanwhile, I've watched countless NFL games where players took equally hard and blatantly illegal hits and they weren't given a second thought- the Iloka on Antonio Brown hit earlier this season comes to mind.  No one demanded AB be taken out of the game.  No one demanded the Steelers be punished for not giving him more medical attention.  But, when it is us, we must be punished.  

It feels like fake concern.  I don't think the outcry is over Cam's well-being and safety, it is more like they know he is our only hope of winning and they want to stomp that out and extinguish any possible hope we have left.  They want less opportunities for him to be seen.  They want him sidelined so they don't have to watch him smile or dance.  OR WIN.  How dare we try to win?  How dare we do what every other team in the league does with its best players?  And again, if the concern is real, where is the outcry for protecting him from these hits to begin with, especially when he is still in the pocket.  Where is the national outrage at trash ass cam (lower-case "c") jordan (lower-case "j") publicly gloating over the injury, making light of an injury, and admitting they were hoping to knock Cam out of the game?  Where are the player safety advocates' outrage on that?  Why aren't they demanding jordan to be disciplined?  Because that's not what they want.  They want Cam off the field and us out of sight.

Cam's health is my first priority, but again, he did not appear to be woozy or demonstrate any signs of a concussion other than being slow to get up initially.  I'm just so sick of this fake concern when their end game is really getting Cam off the field or getting us punished because of their dislike for him and our team...  not genuine concern for Cam.  So, it wasn't enough that the NFL robbed us of a fair chance to win the game with a bogus call, but then national media has to pile on and grab their pitchforks in demand of us being punished on top of having a game being stolen from us?  fug that.

fug the NFL.  And fug national media.  I sincerely hope we get a cut-throat owner in here who will take that fuging shitty ass shield off of our field and will talk that poo when need be, LIKE RIGHT NOW.  An owner that won't put the league over our team, or feels like he owes the league a favor.  An owner that doesn't feel indebted to those punk ass suits who have stolen multiple seasons from us now.  An owner that believes in an eye for an eye and standing up for your teammate, no matter the cost because he knows the league will continue to let opponents head hunt our franchise QB.  An owner that won't go quietly into the night when his team is done wrong. /rant

Because you’re a glass half empty kind of guy?   

So, you think we've been treated fairly and equally?  Cam gets treated fairly and equally compared to every other QB in the league?  You think officials and the public genuinely care about his well-being and health?  You think the league and their officials treat him like a future hall of famer and former MVP?

I'm fairly certain this isn't about perception.  The league shits on us constantly.

This loss sucks but ultimately it was the teams fault. You can’t settle for FGs in the playoffs.

We need to get better at theskills positions  on both sides of the field.

Offense: RB, TE, C, WR

Defense: FS, SS, DE 

So,  you're happy at corner?  Do tell!

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
