It's been thrown around a few times but, with the signing now official, we need to know the most important remaining question. Where was the lunch held? It will come out one day, and the winner will be showered with all the internet respect one can buy. I've gone back and forth on this, and my gut tells me that they did not go to a 5-star steakhouse. My guess... Pinkys Westside grill

They went to Chima Steakhouse, that place is da bomb diggity. Unless it was a Vegan place, since some of them are Vegan. So it prolly was Halcyon Flavors fom the Earth. 

 

Damn, Doc, you beat me by a few minutes.  Halcyon Flavors is uptown, upscale, available for private parties, and with several vegan specialties on the menu.  (It would be insulting to take him to a steakhouse now, wouldn't it?) I was studying their brunch/ lunch menus while you were posting.  So..if this is it, you win the Internet!

My first posting in many months, and it took a 'contest' to draw me out.

My over-optimism last year led me to say I'd quit the site if the Panthers lost the upcoming game (and they did)..and I did.

But recent moves, getting Irvin and McCoy, and great draft choices, have made me feel better about the team's chances, than in many years.  I have tripled up on the over/under 7 1/2 wins with my book -- as someone said, "easy money."

Keep pounding, Marty!

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
