Roll Call…. T minus 5 days, who’s representing in person?

People shitting on BBQ from different places always made me laugh. 
 

It’s just like anywhere else. There are phenomenal places there. There are phenomenal places here too.

 

But excellence is hard. Excellence is rare. So you have to know where to go. 
 

Most BBQ places, painters, mechanics, doctors, teachers, QB prospects…suck. If you stumble on excellence; that’s rare, so enjoy it.

Have lived in the KC area for the last 10 years, so I’ll be down there. If it weren’t free I’d just be watching it on TV but figured it might not come around here again so we’ll see how it goes. Imagine I’ll have to get there so early to have a decent view of the theater that I’ll be standing around for hours and will be ready to go once our pick is announced.

No disrespect but I would never visit KC even if it was a free trip.

 

What are they even famous for besides BBQ?

Here is the true question.  Carolina Barbeque or KC Barbeque?  Some throw Texas BBQ but the usual debate of which is better is Carolina BBQ or KC BBQ.

 

To me there is nothing better than Carolina BBQ.  Nor only is it the original BBQ but it's the best.

I've had Joes, Jack Stack, and Q39 on my many visits to KC.  My preference though is this little shithole called Rosedale BBQ.  They serve you a mess of food on a flimsy styrofoam plate and have the tables with the classic red and white checkered tablecloths.  

Upscale styrofoam plates.  There is a difference.  And they don't skimp on the plastic cutlery either--no sporks at this place.

Dang that stinks. Never knew about inner circle and I’m scouring the internet and do not see any inner circle tickets available

They're typically not for sale. The teams have a certain number and they allocate them for fans of their choosing. The Panthers usually invite PSL owners. We took ~50 people to Vegas last Draft and were able to get everyone inside the inner circle over the three days. We aren't doing anything for this one though (no one wanted to go to KC), but I'll get out there. I think OnLocation has some day 2 and day 3 tickets for sale though. They're the only ones I'm aware of who are able to sell those.

Sounds like they're going to do a competition on Day 3. My boy who cooks at our tailgate will be representing for NC.

Hey @TheBigKat - I'm not familiar with the area/layout, but my KC guys told me that the one pass area is elevated and makes almost a natural amphitheater looking down to the stage. So if you get there early enough and get a spot, you might be ok. I just know last year was a total poo show. I was in that area for two minutes before tossing out my $15 beer to get the hell out of there.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
