who are the bobcats?

Everybody likes to play dumb when it comes to recognize the bobcats.....the word is out on them, they got national writers and media talking, this team is on the rise. Bump this thread in a few months and come talk to me......

Seriously, this team is looking more consistant, and playing with some swag and attitude(ever since s. jackson showed up). the games are actually pretty fun, and they have one of the best home court records in the NBA(14-4). i will be the first one to admit, when the hornets left, it put a bad taste in my mouth, and I have had nothing to do with pro b-ball in about 8 years, but these guys are slowly pulling me back in......(which if they have a good run this year, could get me by, closer to the 2010 nfl season!)

Hey, they are definently getting better. Playoffs are almost a sure thing this year in the incredibly weak East, barring a huge collapse. In the next few years as the Celtics fade away and Cleveland loses Lebron to the Knicks and ruin his career, Charlotte could be a real contender.

I realize that Matt Moore is on the way up and he had a solid final 3 games to finish up the season, but let me ask you this question.

Would you really put it past John Fox to trot Jake Delhomme out as the starter for the first 6 games of the season letting him stay in the lineup just long enough to ruin the start of the Panthers' season guaranteeing them another lost year?

I wouldn't put it past him.

Hope we all don't forget this. This is what scares me about Fox still being here.

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
