Panthers Fan 69

Recommended Posts

I wish there was something that could be done on the fan's side that mattered.  The NFL gets tons of TV money, and fans will buy tickets and food for games.

But I'm pretty much done with the Matt Rhule coached Panthers.  10 straight losses?  Longest losing streak in the NFL.  5-12 when leading after 3 quarters?  He's never going to turn a corner.  It's pointless for me to spend my Sunday's hoping something happens.  

I'll follow, but forget watching games again.  Heck, I'd rather scrub my toilets than watch Matt Rhule continue to ruin my team.

I’ll add to this, if you’re a season ticket holder and you can afford it- don’t show up and don’t sell your tickets. An empty stadium is worse for Tepper than a stadium full of opposing fans (which we have half the time anyways). When the camera zooms out and you start looking like the chargers did a few years ago, that poo is humiliating. Also helps with Tepper not banking stadium here/food/merch sales. Hit that peckerhead where it hurts as best we can.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
