Im a uniform buff so this stuff is cool. I remember watching the games and pre game shows etc before the Champ game.

Oakland Invaders..best helmet ever. Well..maybe the Jacksonville Bulls.

Yep. Loved the Invaders, the Jacksonville Sharks and the Orlando Rage.

Best helmet ever is the Rams.

I was at the last USFL game ever played. The Championship between the Oakland Invaders and the Philly Stars in the Meadowlands. I also was at the the game were Reggie White of the Memphis Showboats broke Doug Fluti's (New Jersey Generals)collarbone. I drove all the way from Staunton Virgina to attend those games.

Anyway- Looking forward to discussing the annual Cardinals/Panthers game next week. Lets hope it's not a Vinny Testeverde/Tim Ratty matchup like two years ago.

Oh how I miss NFL Europe. I remember how depressing it was thinking there was 6 months before football started up again and then it was like oh yeah NFLE is on. It was a excellent training ground for the guys that never got to play in the NFL (Jake and Warner both got playing time here). If the NFL is serious about getting teams in places like Mexico City (Cards vs 49ers game highest attendance in NFL history and that was when they both sucked balls) or Canada another developmental league would be a nice start.

I still think football could work in Europe..but it would take time..but from what i have been reading the NFL wants a team in london..that would be crazy.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
