Do people actually watch the Olympics anymore? I think the last time I actually watched an event was in the 80's. 

I watch the US women's soccer team pretty consistently whether it be World Cup or Olympics.  Better than mens soccer.  But outside of that, just give an old school Sportscenter run down of what occurred.  Some cool moments like the Americans in the 1500m run the other day.

The mens 100 meter was interesting. Incredibly close finish.

No Olympics events will even be going on during the preseason games... 

I mean, that's great for people who can watch it during the day, but most people are working or going to school during the day, and that's why they re-broadcast it during the evenings.

The Panthers game starts at 7 est and the olympic rebroadcasts start at 8 est, so I say watch the Panthers for an hour and switch. I can't imagine gleaning anything meaningful after the first quarter anyway.

I was thinking the same thing! lmao

My favorite part about the Olympics, aside from the whole world competition and exploration of other cultures, is that I end up following a random sport or two that I've never kept up with before. It gets to the point of where I'm deep diving the history of the sport and the evolution of the tactics used so that I can better understand what I'm watching.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!

      Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
