A little conflicted...

Ok I'm obviously pulling for the Panthers. They are my team, and I pretty much have never had a "second" team. But dangit now I sort of have a couple of them.

One of my former basketball players (I'm a high school coach) is a rookie with the Giants now.  I'm admittedly pulling for him to have a good game. Still a strong Panthers win, but I want him to play well. Great, great kid.

Also I went to high school with Brandon Beane so I want to see the Bills do well also.

But yeah, Go Panthers!  Hope we win by 30 but BJ Hill has 10 tackles.

Anyone else ever have those conflicted types of feelings?  What's the solution?  Drink more?

I have teams I like and teams I don't like, but I never really find myself "conflicted" when it comes to the Panthers.

The only time I could really say I wavered was when the Patriots played the Falcons. That was more a "lesser of two evils" sort of thing though.

Agree with this

    IMO, it is perfectly fine to root for individuals on opposing teams when this situation arises.

 

    I had a High School buddy who wound up winning an Olympic Gold. When he came to town, he got booed just like everyone else. But after the game? He was still a buddy. 

 

    Bros before foes.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
