Off Topic: Everybody panic!

Drive slow let, off the accelerator earlier than normal, don’t slam the breaks and put the car in neutral if you’re feeling overwhelmed. 

Also, it's more crucial than ever to obey all the traffic laws. Running stop lights because you don't want to stop is foolish and dangerous. Put your car in a lower gear if you don't feel any grip on the road. Never let go of the steering wheel.

GO SLOW. Leave lots of room between you and the car in front of you.

Heres the deal- NC has a terrible rep about when it snows. Many yankees make fun of NC about this too. The thing is NC weather is nearly impossible to forecast and instead of snow, we get ICE. That in turn makes it impossible to drive on and causes much more damage. Greensboro could have 100% snow, Raleigh ICE/Snow mix, and Greenville could have 100% rain. 1 degree matters in the sense you either snow or ice. No one can drive on ice, snow is a cake walk......until it melts and forms ice...

No excuse for the crazies that must buy ALL of the milk, bread, and eggs. I never got why making french toast for 24 hours solved all the "snow" panic.

when you get hit by a hurricane and a lot of areas flood but then immediately after with almost no sign of it you have a hailstorm with hail the size of tennis balls out of nowhere and it destroys all cars within a 50 mile radius so you get your new car to drive around then it doesnt snow a singular inch all throughout november to january and instead of snow you get constant rain and severe thunderstorms which break records in your area for the amount of rainfall accumlated in the winter and then you wake up late in feburary and see there's a winter storm warning and that we're gonna accumulate 4 or so inches of snow and that it's supposed to snow for 6 hours

The local news is embarrassing.  They film the salt trucks getting loaded and moving out--sometimes they interview the guy who manages the salt trucks. 

Then they show the empty bread racks.

Then they show traffic.

Then you have some weatherman frothing at the mouth because people are actually paying attention to him.  They try to tease the viewers--withholding actual news until the end, seemingly unaware that their is something called the internet.

We deserve the abuse.  Come on local news--get some creativity.

It’s so annoying. I normally go grocery shopping on Wednesday or Thursday. Never really planned but always happens. Today I went into Walmart neighborhood market. It made me hate people. I seen some of the most inconsiderate, rude and just out right selfish people. Blocking aisles. Buying things in bulk because you know we will be snowed for a month right? I hope the sun comes out and melt everything tomorrow. Bah humbug!

I have literally driven on solid sheets of ice before. During that big ice storm in the Atlanta area, I never stopped driving to work in that area. It is not impossible, you just can't be a goddamn idiot. It is no different than walking on ice, take it slow and be careful. And stay away from hills.....

    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...  
    • Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning.
