In Raleigh, some apparel hard to come by, but...


top dawg

Recommended Posts

There seems to be a glut of Delhomme jerseys in the clearance section of some of the WalMarts. I kid you not: I have looked at the same dozen shirts in one of the local Wally Worlds for at least 6 months now, including insane $15 Jake jerseys that I wouldn't buy if they were $1. Speaking of apparel, other than general Panthers gear (which I prefer, acually), I have only seen Smitty gear, one D. Will jersey (which I snapped up for $15), and a couple of $80 Beason jerseys at Dick's. I haven't seen anybody else represented. Surely it's not like that in Charlotte. Do I have to come west to get some decently priced gear? Damn! No Stew. No Moore. Clausen...only Smitty and Jake. Perhaps with all the new guys, the new stuff hasn't hit the shelves yet.

I can get Steve Smith, The two-headed monster backs and Clausen here in Toronto, but that's irrelevant to the topic at hand. Everything else has to come online, which is probably your best bet unless you go to the Panthers team store, I'd assume they'd have everything.

Not shitting you, my wife calls me a few weeks ago and said "Hey, I'm in Marshall's and they have a Panthers jersey for $19. Do you want it?" So I say, whose is it? She said "number 80 - Somebody Jarrett."

Guy's poo is already on the clearance rack.

Damn! I'm more amazed with the fact that your wife was actually looking through men's clothes on the clearance rack, and even more that she even called you about a football jersey. How thoughtful. What a lucky dude! Hell, I'm jealous. LOL

I think this is because the day before, I told her "huh, all three jerseys I have hanging in the closet are now defunct - Peppers, Delhomme, and Ray Felton (Bobcats).

Don't laugh - that's what I have. But she takes good care of me, yes. LOL

There are going to be thousands of Delhomme and Peppers jerseys sitting around in sports apparel stores for the next decade probably.

I actually saw a couple David Carr jerseys on a clearance rack last week.

Carr? I would have thought all of those would be on some unfortunate soul's back in Africa or something. I know that the NFL sends the apparel for the loser of the Super Bowl to a relief organization (not that Carr has made it to the Super Bowl, but I'm just saying). Can't you see a vision of some poor guy in Africa with a David Carr jersey on looking like a deer caught in headlights as he's being rushed by a herd of wildebeests? Even worse, someone actually wearing a Rae Carruth jersey...

The Panthers have a whole rack of authentic Delhomme and Peppers jerseys on "sale" for $129 at TC... LOL

When I went to the Panthers team store to buy my authentic Beason jersey this year I was surprised to learn they only stock authentic jerseys for 4 guys at any one time and right now those guys are: Delhomme, Peppers, Smith and Williams. The guy told me they were trying to clear out more of the Delhomme and Peppers stock before they added other people, but at $129 I don't see that happening anytime soon.

    • Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.
    • I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.  
    • Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
