My bid to purchase the Panthers

So last week I went to the team store to buy a new coffee mug and to put in a bid to buy the Panthers. I had high hopes walking in and I am not accustomed to losing many negotiations. We haggled over price. In the end $2.3 billion is not much worse than $2.5 billion but I wanted a few things thrown in with the deal since the price was a sticking point.  I asked for some land to build a 3 acre area dedicated to the Roaring Riot tailgate experience. I was adamant about the team remaining in CLT as long as I’m alive. The NFL would have zero leverage in wooing me elsewhere.  The stadium is fine and I said I would not host a super bowl. Speaking of stadiums, the RoaringRiot would have one entire lower bowl endzone section free from PSL licensing so the Riot can make their presence felt in one large raucous area complete with vuvuzela’s and a large bass drum. Football is to be played outside on natural grass.I have 8 and 12 year old sons that would take over as owners when I finally die of a heart attack on the shitter in some remote town in central Canada.  I spoke with city leaders and they agreed to make every Panthers home game weekend an official Paint the Town Panthers event. Opposing fans could stay in hotel rooms but the council agreed to pass legislation that would prohibit the lame ass Epicenter from catering to locals that sell out the home team. They also agreed to pass legislation that would allow open containers throughout the city within the I277 perimeter on game at weekends. I also have numerous other plans to make B of A Stadium our home. For example, any PSL broker caught selling out entire sections of seats to opposing fans would lose PSL rights and I would sell those PSL’s to young and passionate Panther fans for pennies on the dollar.  But I digress. In the end JR didn’t want to sell to me because I like to stand and raise hell during the games. He felt selling to a yahoo like me, raised in the port city of Wilmington NC, purveyor of all great things Panthers, drinker of cheap beer, would not be wise.  So I bought a coffee mug and wrote a song about Norv Turner to the tune of Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up”.  Let’s hope we get a good owner.

You should tweet Voth and ask him how he thinks the other candidates are going to feel about taking part in phony interviews before the Panthers install Richardson's lapdog again.

Or ask why we didn't go to the routers having a consultant rather than a Richardson surrogate (Becker) a PR guy (Drummond) a lawyer (Argeris) and Rivera rubber stamp Hurney.

Three people with no experience whatsoever in football evaluation and one who's bad at it choosing the guy that's going to make our most important football decisions in the future...Only the Panthers could be happy about having such a dumbass arrangement as that.

They have two legit candidates for the GM job right now, three if they actually do reach out to Cowden, and they're gonna screw them over in favor of Marty frigging Hurney.

I swear, some days I don't know why I'm even a fan of this team.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      You know, there's something about this whole JAG thing that really just drives home the idea that to some folks, these players aren't real people, just names and stats.  Of course, it goes beyond sports. We're a sad, jaded species, us humans.

      Unc Basketball thread

      Yeah, it's just dumb. Everything is year to year. I never understood how anyone could stay engaged as a Kentucky fan or duke fan as duke became a one and done factory like Calipari made Kentucky. The thing I liked at about UNC is that we primarily focused on recruits likely to play multiple years. We'd have pur occasional one and done but most of our pros still played multiple years. And the days of the Stackhouses, Wallace, Jamison, Carter, etc. playing multiple years is just over. And now you have your role players entering the portal every year to test the waters elsewhere. I don't blame them for looking out for themselves but just personally speaking I'll run out of interest quickly trying to get to know a whole new roster year over year.
