Speaking as the husband of someone who's survived more than one form of sexual victimization, what would you suggest I tell her to explain how watching a football team win is more important than her feelings?

I’m surprised she remained a fan after the cowboys signed Greg hardy.

To not watch football if she cannot restrain from imposing her personal feelings on a football team that is solely for entertainment. 

Personal feelings are all over entertainment now. That’s part of it now.  If we land Watson, I can still like other players in the team, but there will definitely be a dark cloud over our franchise. Let another franchise have him. It’s a terrible decision for the franchise with him not have legal issues. Throw those in and it’s disgraceful…

If, if is always used to brush aside what shouldn't be.  If you are alive you will interact with all kinds of people that if you knew them you would regret having even been in the room with.  There not much you can do if you are ignorant of the fact. Once you know what they are about then you are responsible for your actions beyond that.

Using political figures as some indication of right or wrong is the worst example you could have chosen.  Whether I vote or not depends entirely on what I know about the candidate.  There hasn't been anyone with voting for since it became eligible to vote 42 years ago.  So no, to answer your question neither the former or current dipsh!t is my choice or fault. fug you for making me go there. 

 

Using political figures and those that support them is the best example I could use. The reason you don't see it is because you don't want to see it. And fug you for trying to call people POS human beings just because they would support Watson coming here if he is not deemed criminally liable. There's a reason for American jurisprudence. There's a reason for criminal and civil law. There's also a nuanced distinction between pervert and predator.

People will be upset if the trade goes down but they'll get over it eventually like everyone does with every other bad person in the nfl

Ray Lewis killed a guy FFS. Tyreke Hill punched his pregnant girlfriend in the stomach. Kareem Hunt knocked a chick out in an elevator. No one talks about that stuff though.

And if those "entertainers" happen to victimize a few women along the way, that's okay as long as they keep "entertaining" us. Is that how it works?

I mean, it's not wrong as long as you're rich, famous or talented, right?

I don't think it's "okay," but I don't feel the need analyze the morality of every player that plays for the Carolina Panthers, no. The only thing that matters is whether they're good at football. Their morality does not impact their ability to perform on a football field.

I'm petrified that we're going to do something stupid and give up multiple Firsts, plus other picks, and a player or two, for Watson.

We're not a contender if you add Watson right now, especially when it takes away our firsts for a few years and current starters.

It would reek of desperation and only backfire on us, we have far too many holes to fill, start to do that this year and draft a new QB next year in a better draft class.

When it’s out there in your face it’s difficult to ignore. I’m not saying to do full background checks on everyone on the roster, but we KNOW he has been accused by a lot of women and are interested in him as a leader of this team? Where do you draw the line? Do you want Bill Cosby to help with scouting? How about Harvey Weinstein?

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
