Zane Gonzalez better give up number 5 or we better cut his ass before week 7. Stephon wore number 5 at USC and South Pointe High.

Unfortunately, players can't change their numbers during the season. #25 is available as is #9. 

Don't really care which number he chooses, I just want to see him out on the field.

I can imagine Eazy-E's reaction to that knowledge would be "WTF REALLY?". 

As is mine as I did not know that players aren't allowed to do this.

Jesus Christ, what does our Media Officer do?!

They should have run in and rescued Stephon 5 minutes into that interview. What inane questions that he can't answer honestly. "Would you have signed here? / Do you want to sort out your contract before taking the field? / What do you think of your new teammates and how talented are they?"

Dude has LITERALLY just got here.

They ask these same stupid questions every time we acquire a player. Like they know this dude just walked into the building. Like they were there snapping pictures of him coming into the facilities. YOU KNOW HE JUST WALKED UP. 

They are just looking for any little slip up or whatever that they can misconstrue to stir up some drama or whatever. Get their clickbaity headlines and what not. People say these players don't seem happy to be here but really they just don't want to talk to the media. Why would they?

I liked the questions "have you talked to Cam Newton?  What does he think or have to say about the Panthers?" 🤣

Him and stephon are really tight. I think that was a legitimate question.

all media asks these types of questions of every team it’s not just Charlotte and the panthers.

They read the Huddle and they read Twitter and just try to respond to base level chatter. Sports Media is responsive now. They are not interested leading informed discussions. Though the demands of needing to have hourly takes on everything is an impossible task so I see why it has come to this. 

Just one media member not beholden to Twitter who could provide something thoughtful and researched would be nice.

Those reporters know Cam Newton is a sensitive subject.  I think that it was more of a fishing question than you give it credit for.  Whether he's talked to Cam in the last 24 hours or not, I think his answer was wise.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
