Nah man, your good you got carried away. I understand. When you get the feeling of the music you love so much, it surfaces. Metal music got me through some really hard times. I'm not saying that you had hard times, just saying it really helped me. The stir of emotions with this type of music is not like others. I should know. I am a recovering drummer. haha

I think the worst time in my life, Pantera Far Beyond Driven got me through it. I had so much internal anger and the band filtered it for me. It was a girlfriend issue, and Pantera's shedding skin helped purge the hurt.

I met Phil I think in 2002 at Ground Zero (before the Dime incident) and I all I wanted to ask him was wtf! WTF! I never got my question out completely and the man saw me and said I know, I know. Then gave me a hug and said im sorry. Phil Anselmo did that.

Awesome story!  Thats killer

Anyone else go last week?

It was a good time, LOG rocked the place and old man Dave still has it. I was a little disappointed in Megadeth's sound but, overall great arena experience. If you get a chance again, go!

Caught the tour here in Louisiana when it rolled through on 4/15. Was a very damn good show overall despite having to drive 2 hours (which I do for nearly every worthwhile show). Love all the bands so it was the 2nd time seeing Megadeth (first in 2012), Lamb of God (first in 2016), and In Flames (first in 2017) and the 5th time seeing Trivium (first in 2012, then 2013, 2016, and 2018).

Have to say that Lamb of God absolutely crushed it and the fact they're continuing to put on this top notch of a performance night after night is a testament to how good of a live band they are. Was the first time seeing them with Art Cruz on drums though and while he's damn good, I still feel they'd be even better with Chris Adler still on drums. As a drummer, he's been one drummer that I've always gravitated to his playing style/feel and while they can find others to play those parts he wrote and tracked, Chris Adler is just irreplaceable to me. Maybe I'm just salty they parted ways, LOL. But they were my favorite band from when I found them mid-2004 through 2019 or so until recently being surpassed by both Meshuggah and Gojira; two more bands I'd have a hard time enjoying as much without Haake and Duplantier pounding the skins. 😂

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      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.
