I currently live in Boston, pal. From NC. I stand by my statement 

Living in Boston does nothing for your statement. I live in MD now, after a 20 year military career, I’ve lived and been all over the world.  This attitude of hatred or disdain toward “others” is a problem no matter where you’re at.

I’d much rather have someone with Carolina roots own the Panthers than someone from up north.   That has nothing to do with hate or being scared of people. 

we have an older stadium.  Tepper has no attachment to the area.  End of the day, it’s just money and business to him.  Even if low, he brings higher risk of a move down the road.

Being afraid that someone not from the area will move the team is a rational stance. Not wanting a “yankee” owner is not. (What American even calls people Yankees any more? It’s not the 1800s, the civil war is over.)

Didn’t Jerry “Spartanburg” Richardson use the LA card as leverage for the 2012-13 updates?

And even though it’s a rational stance, I’d much rather deal with the 1% chance he’ll move the team than the 100% chance he won’t learn from mistakes and refuse to admit them and stay stuck in the past.

yeah that figures.  More inhumanely raised hogs than humans by a huge number.  Glad you saw the world and came back to your hell on earth.  Good for you.  Wise choice.  Smells like money when you get up in the morning I'm sure.

"And no, I'm not kidding. Millions. Sampson County is the hog capital of North Carolina. And in fact, as I learned from a pork industry website, it's the pig capital of the United States, with more than 1.8 million hogs on the hoof. "

Yeah, remember it, because that will probably be the LAST time the Panthers make it to a superbowl in our lifetime.

That team had a personality and put the league on notice.  The NFL wasn't having it, and to this day I still think sending the defending NFC champs on the road to open against the team they just lost to in a poorly officiated Super Bowl was intended to send a message to Cam and the Panthers that the league belongs to us, not you, and you need to know your place.

Yea, I worked on my uncles pig farm when I was a kid.  Stank, but not as bad as the chicken farms.  And..uh I said I live in Maryland now. When I’m ready to settle down back in NC it won’t be in Sampson county. Probably closer to Charlotte

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
