I dont take hurricanes lightly and have had some pretty big rows with folk who minimize them.

 

This is going to be brutal on the Fla coast.

Im exhausted by the weather people in the triad trying to scare everyone into believing this is going to be anything more than a bad storm.

 

And I didnt say apocalyptic. Ed Mathews did

So is this your definition of just another storm?

 

Just looking at the pictures it looks pretty significant.

 

*43 people dead from this storm so far...

In Greensboro, this was just another storm

They said earlier today that the dam at lake lure was going to collapse but it didnt

They canceled school in areas that just got rain

They preempted regular programming to scare people into thinking that a hurricane was going to hit High Piont but it didnt

Debby was worse but they wanted us to think this was going to be an apocalypse

 

 

You're not understanding that Im annoyed by the ramped up "the sky is falling" way they are treating this weather event.

 

This is why people dont believe weather forecasters when it really is going to be bad

So 43 people died as of right now and you think that wasn't a big deal?

 

Cold world!

43 in NC?  Someone should tell Roy Cooper he just said 3.

 

Youre doing exactly what I talking about

The hurricane is 1 system. Do you realize we weren't the only state affected?

 

A loss of life is always serious. 3 people died today because of this storm. That's a big deal. Asheville is literally flooded. People will be without power for multiple days. All this is a big deal.

 

Just because your area didn't get hit hard doesn't mean everyone else did.

I realize that.

 

Do you realize that's part of their job? It's better to expect the worst than not expect much. They just want people to be safe. I have no idea why you're so upset about that lol

Ive stated it quite clearly.

Im irritated over the hyperbolic coverage.  Im not worked over the national coverage or the coverage of the aftermath but the talk of the anticipated widespread devastation 500+ miles from where it came ashore and 100 miles from the path is ridiculous.

Who cares? You're not forced to watch them lol. I mean, better safe than sorry. Maybe them using scare tactics will keep morons off the roads. Big deal, it wasn't catastrophic like they said it would be. Isn't that a good thing?

      Worst Panthers Preseason Yet

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      Also, the fact we are comparing this one to the 10 preseason tells me we are in for another horrible year.

      Kicker

      By TD alt · Posted

      Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins
