Remember guys many of you supported JR selling this team. Just cause he liked to chase his secretaries around the office desk and pay them handsomely.  We had to remove him, right guys? You assholes wanted this so look in the mirror when you wonder why we suck. It's you, you're the problem. 

yeah. There was also that undisclosed racist thing. There was no accounting of that for us to review whether we felt he crossed whatever line he might have crossed. Secret police type of stuff. 'Trust us he iz very bad man'.

Proof, how about it? 

It seemed like a hit job. He was old and feeble at the time, he didn't fight it. Maybe because they had him, but maybe because they wanted someone else in his place and told him how it was gonna be. 

Then you add in that we have Lynch talking about Navarro contacting him prior to his 49ers hire, about working with him if he bought the Panthers. Timeline is unsure and I am a suspicious type.

Everybody is a little racist at times

 

Jerry grew up in a different time.  If he was so hated why was his funeral so well attended by former players?  They knew.

Having biases is something that comes from life experiences. Survival instincts type of thing at times. Everybody has them. 

Like, I am biased against tiny QBs.

Most of the people I saw running around on a moral high ground don’t even post here anymore.  Their moms kicked them out of the basement.

I loved the guy because I was in football no man's land with no team and make no mistake, he got us this team. 

I sent an email to him through the team site in 2003 to congratulate him and thank him for getting us a team, just a short note to give him some love. 

I got a hand written letter back from him. Who does that?  Yeah he made mistakes and did things we didn't agree with at times but we were so much better off with someone that played in the league and understood players.

What makes it worse is you can see people like Joe Brady thriving in Buffalo.  He was one of the first to go and take blame. Now that we have about 6 seasons under Tepper we can look back and say he was probably our best offensive coordinator. Crazy as it sounds Darnold has probably been the best QB in the Tepper era.

almost every single player / coach that the panthers have cut bait from (besides Rhule and Reich) have improved after leaving. 

At some point the only person consistent is Tepper. He has built a rotten culture. He is a disease which has systemically infected every level of the organization since taking over in 2018. We've gotten worse each year since he's been here.

It's funny how we keep thinking we are at the lowest point we've ever been but somehow it keeps getting lower

I said in this in another thread but last year when people in my life would ask "How are the Panthers doing?"

I'd say "this is the lowest point in my fandom" ....and it continued to be true week after week

I'm currently watching the 96 playoff game against Dallas and Madden saying about the team "...how much pride they have in it.  You know, we came down here Friday and everyone,  the coach, the owner, the general manager,  all the players, everyone has a lot of pride in this place, the city, this state and this football team."

Everything comes around but I have to wonder if the Tepper Panthers will ever get back to this.

      a tip of the cap to the Special Juan

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
