My fam is from Chicago, Bears fans, but my parents lived in Charlotte when the Panthers began, so grew up going to every game.  First and only team I’ve been a diehard fan of. 

Now I live in Chicago (north burbs), and I gotta be honest, knowing I’ll be here growing my family, it’s hard not to look at migrating to the Bears side haha.

The Panthers franchise is in wretched shape.

I believe horrible ownership is the loophole to escape loyalty, without guilt.

If I leave it will be Tepper, and he is his last chance  right now, this year. I won’t pick another team. Just ignore NFL football.

I've survived Weinke and Clausen. This is nothing.

Watching JR gut the roster in preparation for the lockout made it incredibly hard to be excited for the team.

Somehow, I found a way to cheer for Keith Null and Brian St Pierre.

I'll continue to watch

prolly still have my ticket stubs when they were playing games in Clem

would like to get out of my PSLs, but that has little to do with the state of the franchise, just got tired of the four hour round trip to CLT

my seats are good enough that they usually sell on the exchange

of course it would be more fun if they were actually competitive

I watched a little bit of the first preseason game, but didn’t watch any of the 2nd. This is the most apathetic I’ve been about panther football. I mean, we all know how this season is about to go. We all know they are going to struggle game 1. They are going to be out of sync, and someone within the organization is going to mention how it takes time to gel and get things going. Probably should play your starters some.

Only weak minded people desert their teams. Sure they might poo you to tears but they’re still your team. 

When you have a new owner and he's shown you he doesn't know how to run a team I can't fault people if they find another team to root for.

 

Tepper stinks and so does the team. I'm not wasting my time on the Panthers if they aren't showing any signs of improvement. I missed 8 games last year. If we continue to suck I'm sure I will miss even more games this season.

This does not compare. The Tepper losing streak is longer than any Richardson one

    • Plus he was in the era in which Safety, LBs, and CBs could de-cleat WRs/TEs on crossing routes. He was beyond tough too. Plus those numbers his 4.66 40 time etc....... GameDay with 15 LBs of pads/clothes/tape, he was the fastest guy on the field. In fact I never recall at any point Rice being ran down or "hawked" from behind by any player. He was a gamer and clutch, just like lex Lugar the total package. 
    • Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE. 
    • He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....
