If Cam Newton is not on the roster in 2020, would you still be a Panthers fan?

Haven't noticed how much emptier the stadium looks this season, huh? Ah to be young and naive again.

When have we ever had great attendance? The sales numbers are bogus because corporations buy up tickets and give them away. Our stadium is usually anywhere from 60-75% full. Most attendees are the definition of wine-and-cheese fans.

The cost to go to these games is what's do this.  40$ to park, 13$ a beer, food is higher than giraffe pussy.  That's not including the tickets, fuel, breakfast on the way.  Its alot man.

answer is obvious, if you aren't a Panther fan when Cam leaves then you aren't a Panther fan.   

I'll still pull for Cam when he leaves.  I pull for random players.  Watson a prime example.  I want him to win any game that isn't against Carolina because I have followed him and like him. 

but you can only have one team.  I'm a Panther fan.  Whether it is Jimmy Clausen or Cam or whoever down the road.

Agreed. For the cost to go to a game, I can have a pretty awesome football party on a 70 inch HD, actual cold beer, hot FRESH food, and have a whole lot more fun in a lot less time for less money. It's not the same stadium experience, but unless it's part of a 2015 like run, most home games are pretty blah.

Edit: and no Sweet Caroline!!!

If you were a panther fan, you were one of those Asian woman folding fans, not a strong box window fan.  You were made of paper and you fold to get strength--you have no metal blades and power levels--you are a fart spreader, not a climate changer.  That is all I have to say about that.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
