@Zod Let's wipe rep and all board data and start from scratch.  That just sounds fun.

Or maybe change some account names via polls.  

The good stuff.  

Does rep even matter anymore? It's not the crushing noob blow that it was decades ago.

Doing fairly well tyty

Studying for certifications, son just finished up his first season of soccer, wife is on the other side of a mental health episode that had her down and out the last few weeks, and I'll be heading out of town to an event next week (that I was just added to the staff for!).

I've had to cut down tremendously on getting my Panthers fix here, unfortunately. It is not worth attempting to research and create discussion threads anymore (which was what originally brought me to the Huddle). Now, threads are dominated by toxic regulars who go out of their way to repeat the same tired rhetoric in every thread without ever actually contributing to the discussion. It wouldn't be so bad if mods weren't also discouraging discussion by doing the same thing.

Hopefully the team finds a way to start winning and we can go back to hating the mainstream sports media instead of ourselves + each other.

@ZodThanks for asking.  Found out a few months ago I have been sick for years and did not know it (celiac disease).  Stopped eating gluten and have a lot more energy (did not realize my energy level was low). March 1, joined the local wellness center and started swimming before work.  Took me 2 months but am up to a mile.  I feel great!

 

Panthers of course have been a bummer.  I do think Rhule has been reigned in a bit by Tepper. Fingers Crossed Clipart

 The new coaches may help to give us a better year.  Hoping real grown up NFL coaches will not be outsmarted every week after halftime.

 

 

OMG!!! You can SWIM a MILE!!!????

Best wishes, LP.

Lady Cowboy Fan is almost walking normally again. She took me out yesterday to get a new phone.

They've told her that her next surgery will be in August so I guess we'll start the whole process over then.

Yep.  Not bad for an old girl huh? 

Started from zero.  Had not exercised in years.  Wanted to but just could not get it done..now I know why.

A mile is 70.4 laps in the pool I use. I do 72 laps right now a few times a week.  I alternate each lap between free style and back stroke. I like working different muscles.  One of my goals is to strengthen my back muscles and can really feel it with the back stroke.

Glad to hear she is making progress.  I hope the August surgery is the last one??

Anymore, I'm not confident I could do 72 laps in my bathtub 😄

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
