If Tepper did move the team....

Panthers ain’t going anywhere. Population and demographics dictates team placements, NC is the 9th largest state with  Charlotte sitting within an 1 hour 30 minute drive of many large cities in the area. 
 

team ain’t going anywhere. This is a dead subject.

I disagree.  NFL owners are in a world of their own. It's about their egos.  So if someone from , say St Louis comes knocking, giving Tepper even more money to move the team  ,, ( See the gypsy team of the NFL, the Raiders )   I could see him doing it.  He's not married to Charlotte like Richardson was.  St Louis, Charlotte, what does he care.

I didn't say to leave.  I asked you why spend time here, when you are literally the very opposite of a Panthers fan.

I really don't care what label you attach to me. If I choose to post here, I will.

Some people would rather police the fanbase than actually expect management to make competent choices for the future of our franchise.

It can't be the owner's fault, nor the coach's fault, so that means the fans are to blame.

You have pretty much stated that your not a fan of the Panthers.

That's great, man, thanks for the feedback.

In general, I think it's been tough to reconcile that someone that has been so successfull in one endeavor is not in another.  It gives some credence that this is all calculated.  But my take is that Tepper underestimated how subjective managing sports can be versus the objectivity of money. His hubris and ego are digging the holes around him.

I would stay a Panthers fan, I mean it makes the most sense when you think about it. Either A. Stop following the nfl all together or B. Pick another team you have absolutely no passion about or ties to or C. Just stuck with the panthers despite the move, I mean you have a history and story there. 

or D. Enjoy the NFL as the entertainment business it is meant to be. It's a little easier if you like to bet or play fantasy i suppose.

This is getting tiresome. Every time ( and that's often lately) our season goes sideways. Here comes the " Could ---Move  The Team" threads. Sure, but purple monkeys could fly out of my a-- too. But very, very unlikely.

Remember when Pegula was going to move the Bills to Toronto? Lol 

winning stops the panic.

When the hornets moved they were dead to me.

If the Panthers move they should be forced to change names like the Ravens and Titans.

I don't know if they were forced, I think  Art Model was forced.

And the Devil's were leaving Jersey for Nashville (prior to the Predators)... and then won a Cup.

Pretty much. Felt longer as a teeneager in NC. With no Sunday Ticket it was watch what was on the local TV which was never the game I wanted to see which made it feel like 1988 to me.

Right there with you.  Moved to NC in '94.  Panthers got the team in '95.  A few months later Modell blew up a SB caliber team in Cleveland (not often anyone can say THAT) and I became a Panthers fan.

When you see the fans that are actually still attending the games and over half of them are still wearing Kuechly and Newton jerseys, you know it’s bad times.

I keep hoping they will make a special HOF edition Mills jersey. I'd buy that in a heartbeat.
