History of Bad Blood Between Charlotte and New Orleans.

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.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
