The Charlotte media market is #22 in the U.S. There's a reason why the team is called labeled "Carolina" and not "Charlotte" and why the the pushes the whole two states thing so hard. The Charlotte market isn't big enough to carry a team. You need the broader region.

 

 

Charlotte is big enough now but it's a transient city so there isn't majority support like Pittsburg or Dallas. Same goes for LA and LV. They don't have a huge base of fans either. Either way I'm pretty sure we are Carolina just to represent both states like JR wanted. Fan base wouldn't be any different if the name changed because most people in lower SC support the Falcons and in upper NC support the football team formally known as the Redskins.

The NFL, Jerry Jones, and The Texan will not allow another NFL to exist in Texas. 

Nope. It's absolutely going to happen. There's too much money in Austin/SA now. Freaking Elon Musk might own the team.

Hey guys, I have $10,000 in the bank and I have a car repair of $740, can you guys pay it for me so I can keep all of my money?

David Tepper.

It's a good investment because with my repaired car I'll be able to contribute to the economy and that will end up making things better for everyone so you see, it's really in everyone's best interest to give me this money that I totally don't need so that I can further increase my wealth... uh, I mean "contribute to the economy".

I was simply responding to the statement that Charlotte is a top 10 media market. 

 

 

 

 

 

It is by NFL standards. The nfl determines the primary and secondary market (for blackout zones) by drawing a 75mile radius around the stadium.

That ‘standard’ puts the panthers at #6. Just ahead of the cowgirls.

Interestingly enough, the nfl widens that 75 mile zone for the panthers to include the triangle, etc. Adding Raleigh Durham puts the panthers at #2 I think.

Indianapolis is 25th

Pittsburgh is 26th

Baltimore is 28th

Kansas city is 34th

Cincinnati is 36th

Vegas is 40th.

New Orleans is 50th.

Buffalo is 53rd.

 

Charlotte by itself could claim to be larger than their number if they wanted a broader reach. The issue that Nielsen has is if Charlotte were to include additional counties and cities it would be cannibalizing other smaller media markets. This works for large cities such as New York, LA, Chicago, and Houston where they can actually encompass other media markets as their own with their broadcasts. 
 

If the Raleigh/Durham area had their own team, then it would reduce the size of the Panthers NFL market. This is somewhat similar to the Pennsylvania NFL media market where they have both the Steelers and the Eagles.

He is really starting to piss me off. He has brought the team down from mediocrity to laughing stock in only a few years.

One of the good things about him was he was going to be the richest owner, but he just wants to keep all that $ and make more off the Panthers while making terrible decisions. He is just a piece of poo.

It's what billionaires do. This is our new version of "capitalism". In reality, it's just socialism for the very wealthy.

You and me both. I would've told him "15% of Rock Hill's population falls below the defined poverty line and you, a billionaire more than a dozen times over wants hundreds of millions in handouts? You sir can go fug yourself."

To put this in perspective, David Tepper a multi-billionaire is essentially asking Rock Hill for $21k per impoverished resident. This poo should be fuging criminal but it's business as usual for the elite.

Rockhill never should have made that deal. They can’t afford it and shouldn’t try.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
