Should we retire Keep Pounding

Keep pounding has been around long enough and through enough that it is now part of the tradition of this team, whether they live up to it or not. 

I'm a St. Louis Blues fan, and midway through their Stanley Cup season they adopted the song "Gloria" as their mantra.  There is a story behind it that coincided with their climb from last in the league in early January to the playoffs and the championship.  That was a one-season thing, but the fans had a similar debate after the season.  Yes, it was their mantra to their first championship, but it was not a tradition.  Five months does not make a tradition.

Keep pounding is a tradition.

A fan telling another fan what to do let alone stop being a fan is the weakest poo of them all fella

 

and for the record. Unless you just live under a rock. It’s been pretty hard being a fan of this team. Heck, I don’t even watch full games anymore because it’s unwatchable at times. At least the Canes are good and they actually care about their fan base. Complete opposite of what Tepper has shown. 

I get your disgruntled about the team, but this isn't high school football where you don't get a sticker on your helmet until you do something good.  

Sam started "Keep Pounding" to remind everyone that no matter how bleak things are you gotta "Keep Pounding".  If anything, this is exactly why we should keep it.  We are struggling to be relevant again.

THE PANTHERS NEED TO "KEEP POUNDING"

it has emotional resonance and is tied to team history, which is cool, but objectively i see why someone without prior attachment to it would want it gone. "keep pounding" sounds anthemic of always losing but trying really hard not to. it implies failure as the starting point and winning as the variable.

it really just is not that great.

What I find hilarious as when someone makes a thread and actually wants to have a conversation you get people posting “this thread is stupid” or the poster is stupid take it down. Yet they take time to post vs actually having a conversation. That shows your IQ. Thank you for the folks that actually wanted to have a legit conversation.

      FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.

      That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?

      Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
