Every year since 2002 when the NFC South was formed, the Panthers and Saints have played. Many would argue that the Panthers-Bucs rivalry is the strongest, but the Panthers-Saints rivalry goes beyond the two teams. In 1988 Charlotte got an NBA expansion team.......The Charlotte Hornets. I along with many loved the Hornets, we had a couple of good years, and the team was pretty well recieved. Then the sh*t hit the fan. George Shinn, team Owner was involved in a sex scandal, and as a result attendance bottomed out. The Hornet left for New Orleans, and Charlotte ended up with the Bobcats. not only would have have a Sh*tty name. They would end up being a Sh*tty team.

Just another reason why some Panther fans hate the Saints. They want to prove while New Orleans may have the better basketball team. Charlotte will own in football.

I've always felt that the Charlotte/Atlanta rivalry was the most intense. Charlotte and Atlanta are the premier emerging southeastern cities. And of course we've played a lot of good football against them. Too bad Atlanta is a sh*t hole and Charlotte is awesome.

Saints fans don't deserve to be Hornets fans...it's just Not right.

Not to mention they have a star PG who's from NC and grew up a CHARLOTTE Hornets fan...

Ahh the Charlotte Hornets was such an amazing franchise...I truly miss them.

Didn't Shinn want the team to be the Charlotte Spirit too? And the city suggested Hornets...we really fvked that up, Charlotte should have done what Seattle did and kept naming rights...oh well...the NBA just needs give NOLA the "Jazz" back and us the "Hornets" all ready... Utah can think of something....

Yea, that really pisses me off. I still have my Charlotte hornets gear. I hate all of the NFC South teams with a passion. But I seriously can't stand the Saints. or the N.O. Hornets.

Since cheap shots and chris paul have both been mentioned. Let's not forget about him punching Julius Hodge in the balls. NO can have him.

I met Chris Paul at the summer league (UNC Wilmington) in high school when i went to East Meck and he was at West Forsyth. Just a really nice down earth guy. However, when I saw that poo I really stopped being a fan.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
