theres little things, such as not washing my jersey when we win, or sitting in the same spot/position when a big play happens.

but one i find myself doing is every sunday morning when i wake up to my alarm going off, i sit up and start singing the "happy go sunday" song, we always win. the only problem is im so excited for the game i wake up 20 minutes early before and we end up losing/ =(

If I'm going to a Falcons game, I always go to the CNN Center and get a huge Sierra Nevada on draft. I then go down to the hell hole parking lot to tailgate under the parking lot. I love my team, but our tailgating is lacking in many ways. That's my regular ritual for going to a game.

When at home, I usually try to get a good mountain bike ride in 3 hours before KO, and then I'll usually have several Kona Longboard Pale Ale's, and I usually stand up for most of the game, walking around snacking on chips and salsa. Doesn't always work, but the beer is good and I usually get a huge buzz on.

I have a Panthers neon light that hangs in the front window, first thing I do on gameday is turn it on, and it doesnt get shut off until I turn in for the night. I am also one of them people that do not wash my jersey with a win. This year, I have been wearing the same color jersey the team is, that doesnt seem to be working..This year too I bought the kids & wife new Panther gear. Guess its time to find them receipts...

:lol:

The Cali Cat Pack had a meeting and decided that this season we wouldn't be superstitious. I mean it never was anything out of the ordinary but it would involve us not wearing the same player's jersey and or color on the same day, we all had to be present at kickoff, no beer until kickoff, one of us had to drink Henessey only, 2 of us had to go outside for "a bowl" during halftime and stuff like that.

But, given our current situation, we are slowing going back to those rituals. They worked fine for us last year.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
