I haven't heard any report that the bubble will be removed. I certainly may have missed it.

But, to suggest we'll be holding training camp in a hotel ballroom is ridiculous and just piling on.

I don’t hate often, but I hate David Tepper. Every  move he makes is the wrong one. I will never pull for his team to win again.  Fugging clown.

Going to camp in the middle of nowhere is a team-building exercise. The players had no choice but to bond with each other and learn the playbook. Now that is gone. They now have to deal with the distractions of the outside world. Not a fan of this.

I appreciate it that I'll be able to just take the light rail down and catch more of camp.

But I understand not everyone lives close to uptown or even Charlotte. I also get the nostalgia but for some folks

I don’t know.  Lot of players have seemed less than enthusiastic about then whole deal.  Specifically, the older players with families and those that have spent time elsewhere.  

who wants to go sleep in a college dorm for a couple weeks away from your family?  I don’t think all 6 are putting their athletes in college dorms either.

I try my best not to hate anyone. But the Teppers are speeding on a runaway train to that territory for me…

This move makes absolutely no sense.

Might at well rename the team the North Carolina Panthers. 
 

Not unless we're dropping "One Team, Two States"...

So yeah, Joe's getting blacklisted from future pressers

South Carolina isn't happy about this.

Tepper is about to announce the “Carolina” Panthers are no longer going by that name.  It’s not appropriate.  It’s not 2 states, 1 team.  We will be the Nicole Panthers.

You'll be ok, South Carolina. You still have ... um ... hmm. You still have ... um. A coastline? I guess?

It's silly to make players travel to a crappy college to practice and live in crappy dorms.

Hope you enjoy when they start charging for it in a year or two, then. Because that's way easier to do at BoA than Wofford.
