Y'all are crazy with this Charlotte is bigger than Atl nonsense and using actual "within city limit" metrics is fuging stupid. The Atlanta Metro area is almost 3 times larger than Charlotte's.

Atl Metro ~7 million people

Cha Metro ~2.6 million

The Panthers fanbase comes from two entire states. The NFL views the Falcons fanbase as the Atlanta metro area, which as Floppin typed, dwarfs the Charlotte metro area. So yes, the actual city proper of Charlotte is bigger than the city proper of Atlanta ... but that's not what the NFL cares about. The Panthers won't move, but they easily could. The NFL doesn't need them there.

Eh, that's a different argument. The actual TV market size for the Panthers is in the top 10 in the NFL.

Here comes the billionaire city shakedown for corporate welfare

Please explain to me what large businesses don't do this.  ( receive incentives from a state, city , county , etc )  It's been going on for years and will so in the future.  But for some reason if a professional team does it, it's a shakedown or fleecing . 

State of SC trying to keep BMW happy . 70 million.   This goes on everywhere , when large businesses are involved.  Do you really think all the banking interest in Charlotte just decided to move to Charlotte without incentives ??

      Bills predictions

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah it is nice seeing some improvement on the defensive side and the young guys.   I don’t want to think about the future much if Bryce doesn’t heal and we are kept in this limbo via an incomplete test. It is depressing  I don’t have quite as dim a view of the 24 draft class as you do   I have modest hopes for XL compared to none. I like CSW.  Am a little cooler on Sanders but at the same time realized this week that Morgan getting that future 2nd for moving down turned into Scourton. I think. Jackson is a real value in exchange for the guy we took with the 7th. I don’t expect anything from Brooks but Wallace seems to have improved enough to not bust. And Coker is in with them, but is giving us nothing this year. So far, and it is almost half over     I hope Andy still has enough to make watching the offense less of a claustrophobic experience. And there is a small chance we upset the Bills but just playing them tough and making it a fun game to watch will be enough.

      Bryce haters gunna hate.  Can't change that. Bryce has been pretty durable all things considered.  A couple minor injuries considering how much he was hammered year 1.  And he still takes hits.  Dude is tough. The play in question is a football play, poo happens.  That's ultimately what happened.  Guys running around, trying to stop Young and stuff happened.  Sucks but that's how it goes. For me, I'd rather see Young play.  He will either prove that he's the Dude, a JAG (leaning heavily right now), or an outright bust (some of you were there on draft night, lol)

      Seth Walder: Regrading 8 trades from the 2024 NFL trade deadline

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I think we need to let the 2025 class develop. Remember at one point early during last season the 2024 class was gonna be a killer. And we had all kinds of people chirping about how the 2021 Draft was the greatest of all time. Early returns are promising. Let's hope it continues.
