Hey, I didn't know that.  Not sure why he says it reminds him of home.  Maybe he's just being nice.

No worries.

All the Jets & Giants facilities are in New Jersey and I really don't remember any of their players who actually lived in New York City (Manhattan) proper on a full-time basis.  I'm sure there were some but can't think of any right now.

Eli Manning did live in Hoboken (directly across the Hudson River from Chelsea/W. Village) for pretty much all of his tenure with Giants (Danny Dimes lives there now)...

...that's kind of a watered down version city living.

Most folks who have never been there think of the NJ Turnpike/Snooki & J-Wow/Atlantic City when they think of "Jersey" but towns like Chatham (where Mr. Tepper raised his family) and Morristown (both in Morris County) are idyllic and incredibly beautiful. 

A ton of incredible and historically significant golf courses in NJ too!

For anyone whose family has not lived in California over 100 years, and not bilingual and bicultural….you’re an outsider/foreigner.  That’s what some of us think. 😎

In New York City the yardstick is either 10-years, or 3 generations...

...take your pick 😎

No idea, maybe it does remind him of home, but I dont know in what way. The question might have needed a follow up, like in what way does Charlotte remind you of your hometown?

Maybe he means it feels like family.  The people he's met and interacted with make it feel like home.  Just a nice warm comfortable feeling that he's not felt since he was home.

I think that makes a lot of sense and it could be what Sam meant.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
