First Game Back in a Couple Years


Anybodyhome

Recommended Posts

First game in BOA since 2017. Taking the wife and one of her employees who has a developmentally disabled son and loves football. Not sure how well he'll handle the sensory overload or being somewhat restricted in a seat for 3+ hours, but we'll soon find out.

Anyway, since it's the Hall of Honor game, I thought I'd pull out my old #48 Stephen Davis jersey (opted for that over the #57 Lamar Lathon jersey) and listen to how many people don't have any idea who he was. Think the wife is following suit and will pull out her old Jake jersey.

Ahh Steven Davis. I'll never forget that magical 1999 year he had of almost 1500 yards and 17 TD's back in the old NFC west. If I recall that year correctly the Panthers finished the season with an astonishing record of .500 - good times.

Davis was a Redskin in 1999 and the Skins were never in the NFC West.

He joined Carolina in 2003 and had over 1400 yds and 8 TDs in his first season when the Panthers went to the Super Bowl.

He was? Oh well. My memory hasn't been kind to me lately. Good eye.

Oh, I thought he was saying when he got those stats while we were still in the NFC West. Didn't really know Davis's numbers prior to joining us, so I assumed they were right around that, with how well he performed for us.

 

Betcha a bunch of these kids didn't know which division we were initially in prior to the realignment in 2002.

Lamar is my favorite Panther pass rusher.

He would just kill QBs. 

When he broke Michael Irving's collar bone in the 96 playoff game I almost jumped onthe field. He used to come talk to us before games.

13.5 sacks as a ROLB in a 4-3 defense in 1996.

Had a “deep” conversation with a ‘Skins fan before the ‘03 season on how pissed he was that his team traded Davis... don’t remember seeing for any game that season at teh Varsity Club, the bar where I watched all but 2 of the games that year....

 

saw. Opening day, Jakes intro, at home working on my old  Chevy S10 and missed the 1st TBay game because I was rewiring my brothers kitchen, game was supposed to be on locals but wasn’t.... funny, the details 1 can remember.....

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
