TBH, I trust Tepper to build the Panthers brand. If turf, a dome, a new stadium... whatever he wants to do makes the panthers more popular, successful.. helps the city grow..  

..I'm all for it. 

 

Let the guy that grows money on trees grow the Panthers accordingly

my litmus test is that if mr scot is wailing about it it's probably a good move

Looks like you are trying to veer into another discussion with that first statement, but to your second...turf definitely isn't a detriment to teams getting in and winning superbowls. Grass is better for health and aesthetics, but it won't interfere with our chances to win.

 

so it’s ultimately irrelevant to success, thanks for driving the point home

huh?

right, all the grandstanding about “heritage” and “tradition” in your OP wasn’t meant to frame this as a discussion of old school types “clinging” in opposition to enlightened forward change, forgive my projection

they aren't made in good faith. they're using player health as props to bleat about meaningless heritage. we know this because they categorically resist all attempts to improve player safety.

they are crying over grass.

perhaps but the complaint against putting out a willfully inferior product with legitimate concerns over the health of the entity that sells the tickets because Dave needs just a few more billions is valid

Not really, as I've pointed out in the other thread. The stress on a natural field with all the added events and two major sports is likely to worsen conditions fairly significantly. I'd argue that having an artificial surface with consistent conditions is by far the superior option for all products that use the surface until there are separate venues.

If it was just a football field these overzealous concerns would be warranted but as it stands theyre just cover for some other bullshit agenda.

aren’t you one of this boards bigger soccer fans? I’m inclined to believe you just like the change because it’s being made with the fc in mind.

I do actually wonder if there is something to it.  Is turf an advantage?  Thinking in terms of the regular season setting up the post season.  Do teams that play on turf win / have a better record in the regular season, smoothing their post season path?

I don't know, just thinking out loud.

Lol I have no idea where you got that idea from. I haven't watched a soccer game outside of the WC in my entire life.

      Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team.

      We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).

      Mike Kaye: LB Devin Lloyd could be a realistic possibility

      By strato · Posted

      I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
