Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

Maybe in the US but if you want to talk the world I would say it would have to be whatever city in whatever country it is where every time their stupid soccer team loses they riot, tear down the stadium, burn the city then execute the players. Now that's the epitome of a poo hole sports city. We aren't very good in Charlotte but at least we aren't that level of stupid and ignorant.

Minus the executions, pretty sure numerous college towns have suffered from riots.

Charlotte is a terrible sports city. Always has been. Can’t dismiss Charlotte FC either. 
 

It’s a good thing the Canes are in Raleigh. 

I joke about this all the time.

 

No disrespect to Charlotte it's a cool city but it's the wrong location for pro sports in North Carolina.

 

Raleigh is the heartbeat of the Carolina's. The passion is in that city. The vibe in Charlotte is more laid back. Come to Raleigh and the vibe is much more live. The people are looking for a good time and will support anything local. The Canes have the best sports crowd in the Carolina's. That's including all college sports.

 

If the Tepper's are listening do the right thing move the team to Raleigh.

Hornets are a cursed franchise. Maybe it's a mascot sharing a name with a notorious hurricane, or the ghost of Bobby Phills, or George Shinn making a pact with the devil, or LJ's broken back or Zo not being worth the money, or Adam Morrison lingering stink, or some combination of all those and more. They are never going to be good. Even when they were adored in the good old days, they still weren't very good.

All that said, Atlanta is a pretty bad sports town. Take out all the SEC fanbases in the vicinity and it is very bleak indeed.

No, please, no.

Keep the garbage in Charlotte. No need to drag another city into the cesspool of professional sports that Charlotte has become. With any luck, maybe the soccer team can avoid the curse of Charlotte.

    • Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.
    • Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy
    • Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
