I always thought the statue was ugly and pretentious. Now with JR being investigated and most likely some nasty details emerge, will the statue be removed? If there is a new stadium do you think they’ll have anything resembling JR?

Keep but we shoud also.... erect a statue or three of some full-bodied ladies kind of submissively showing off their jeans - which they probably needed help getting in to, by the way.

Edit: oooh! maybe put the statues of the girls kind of lower than him but right up next to him and have him kind of petting them like a dog or something and maybe tweek his statue so he is rocking a semi-chub but he isn't hiding it; he wants you to see it.

I doubt it's going anywhere.

I, too, find myself wondering what the team would do with the existing statues if they were to get a new stadium.

Seems like they'd move them, but it also seems like a complicated process. You'd have to be really careful to make sure you didn't damage them.

One of the statues of Mike McCormack. I'm not positive a lot of Panther fans even remember who that was anymore.

Keep it, he is the reason this team exists and fought to make it exist.

I think the new owner likely could pull off removing the JR statue.  Especially when more details emerge. 

as far as the Mills statue? It ain't moving until the Panthers move from that stadium.

As long as the new ownership doesn't involve the minority owners who helped put it there.

And yeah, the Mills statue has to stay. That's non-negotiable.

non-issue leave it alone and move on. Waste of money to take it down. 

He did some bad things, but as far as what he did for Charlotte was greater. 

As much as I hate to say it .... I think what he did was wrong but its fair to say throughout the years vast majority of men have done worse.

There is no need to reply regarding yourself as a saint either. IDC. This is my opinion.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
