It’s weird to see a guy whose made over 1000 posts in less than a year and hasn’t contributed anything of value to the site get on other people for posting a lot. Dudes been here since 2008. He’s an actual fan of the team. You’re just here, on this new alt at least, for David Tepper lol. 

He and a good few of us have been here for a lot longer than that. I can't remember when he started but I was in either '04 or '05.

03, I think, right around the time the Panthers closed their official boards.

Pretty fortuitous timing for Igo.

And yeah, in the days before Twitter, Facebook and all that stuff blew up, Panthers news and info wasn't easy to come by.

TBF if I didn't have any context I would just assume you're talking about Scot here.

No I think Scot contributes tremendously to the site. I don’t like when people on a message board bash somebody else on a message board for literally being active long term members. Like part of the reason you found your way to this place was because of posters like Scot who have been around and been active. We are all fans and partially nerds for being here. It just kind of surprised me to see somebody with a thousand posts in less than a year try and diss somebody for being more active lol.

Sizzle might be my favorite troll account next to the Teddy one. I really hope one of them is just Igo messing with us.

The Teddy one that you're referring to has mastered the art of trolling, he is hilarious and I hope he never leaves or gets banned.

No "bashing" going on pal...

...but rather a celebration of over a decade of unwavering focus and dominating performance! 

Even if you only scratch the surface of the numbers it really is truly amazing...

...good onya Scot.

Toomers is a Steelers troll who apparently doesn't have anything better to do with his life than argue dumb sh-t on a Panthers board. He's not worth the effort.

Sizzlebuzz? That one's...hard to explain. He's been on here under other IDs before.

Chuck?  Sanjay?  Someone else?

What's today's guess?

Is @Toomers one of those guys?  Or all of those guys?

Lol...

I got here after that so I wasn’t aware of that. I think I was 2010 or 2012. 

Yeah, after an absolutely humiliating loss in ATL the board melted down so bad we had to start over. I think we were down for a day or two. That's why you don't see anyone with a join date earlier than 2008.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
