And the stands are packed with actual home team fans.  Soccer is the money maker for Tepper and that is obvious 

Given there are no upper level seats being sold for season tickets I am sure the revenue might be less but the atmosphere is a lot more electric. I am in the 127 section a few sections from the supporter crazies and everyone in my section stands for the whole game.  Nobody tells anyone to sit down.

I went to sb50 and sat in a panthers section and thought two panthers fans were going to get into a fistfight because one was standing and the other wanted him to sit down.  They didn't fight but cussed each other pretty good.

I was embarrassed for them.

Yeah but attendance has been 70k plus for home games.

Charlotte’s Hispanic population is really showing up and I’m glad the team marketed to them the supporters section has been one of the best in the MLS.

We have a bright future and though our team is incomplete (I believe we’ll make moves in the next transfer window): Kahlina, Lindsey, Corujo, Lindsey, Franco, Bender, Alcivar, and Swiderski are great building blocks.

Lindsey deserves tons of credit, I can see him becoming one of the best right backs in the MLS in a few years time.

That was only the first game. The upper deck is closed with that singular game exception. It might be opened in the future if ticket sales deem it possible. The atmosphere is electric even so.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
