The complaint of harassment against Panthers interim GM Marty Hurney by his ex-wife has been dropped and there will be no follow-up hearing. Said Hurney's attorney, Kathi Lucchesi of the initial charges: “This is false. No truth to it. Absolutely fiction. Made up in her mind.” Lucchesi said the next step is to get the Panthers to lift the paid administrative leave Hurney has been placed on by the team. 

Must've paid her off, aim I right?

Marty's lawyers may not be the most objective source.

It's possible, but if the NFL is going to investigate, this might not go away that quickly.

dont know, if they dropped the charges this quickly and there was never any evidence , it shouldnt affect him getting the GM job.  Theyre already trying to get him back of leave. 

I just hope/wish they move the fug on.

That's a real possibility.

Honestly, even if all that comes out of this is Marty looking like an a--hole husband, do you wanna make someone with that image the person who does most of the press work and public speaking for your team? (especially if you're trying to get someone to spend a billion dollars to buy it?)

Public perception is a pretty big deal to the NFL these days, especially after the way the Giants handled their kicker.

Imagine the outrage if Panther were to announce Hurney as full time GM after this??

As long as there's no confidentiality agreements involved.

    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
