I was actually in Arizona on a buisiness trip and had no choice but to watch the game at a local Tucson sports bar..... it was just as agrivating having nothing but cardinal fans around you. I feel your pain.

Felt the same way. Tailgated all day, really excited to see out first home playoff game since 2003. Especially after we scored the first touchdown so easily. I had no idea that would be the last points we scored until late. I can honestly say that was the most disappointed I have been watching us play since we lost the Superbowl.

Weird how this thread turned into a group therapy session about the Arizona playoff game. Sounds like yall were raped.

Honestly though that game was so bad I turned off my TV about 5 mins into the 2nd half, turned of my cellphone, looked over at my girlfriend at the time and said alright honey, I guess I will come to that party with you afterall.

I never cared for her friends much but it really made me appreciate being in California sorrounded by a bunch of people who didn't care about football.

I didn't want to watch or hear anything about football for about two whole weeks after that though.

I got a CBS seat on the front row of the press box that night because somebody did not show up..would have been on field otherwise.

You wanna talk about a great seat..wow.

A truly miserable weekend capped off with floor seats for Wake Forest beating UNC the following evening.

Even the comedic genius of Dave cannot ease the pain I still harbor for that weekend of sports.

    • I'm impressed with the way Tillis is structuring the books. The team is currently spending more on non-premium positions like iOL and S, but that’s because they’ve got rookie deals locked in at several key premium spots: QB: Bryce Young LT: Ikem Ekwonu EDGE: Nic Scourton, Princely Umanmielen WR: Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker The only veterans at those premium positions on second contracts are Taylor Moton, Adam Thielen, and the recently extended Jaycee Horn. Given that setup, it makes sense to allocate bigger dollars toward non-premium roles - especially if those pieces support the development and success of the younger core. Investing in iOL helps our young QB. Strengthening the DL helps both of our young EDGE guys and our high-paid CB. I can see the vision. Fingers crossed that it works!
    • I don’t know why the tanking concept is not understood. Coaches and players are not involved at all. It’s always the front office. If we had actually traded players like we should have back in 2022, we would have effectively tanked and gotten a better pick than 9 so we lost all the draft picks to get Young. We traded CMC. We should have traded Burns for the haul and taken GB’s offer of a 1st for Moore. We could have easily traded anyone else. We see it in every sport, every year. Trade deadlines where bad teams give up current assets for future assets. Unfortunately, we were stupid and decided we only wanted to trade CMC for peanuts even though we clearly had a plan to go after Young. We were dumb and there is no way you can tell me that we shouldn’t have tanked via trading away Burns, Moore and anyone else. We’d be a much better team right now had we had a fire sale and tanked the 2022 season. Trading away your top players for future draft picks or prospects (baseball) is tanking. Shoeless Joe and the black Sox is not tanking. That’s point shaving/betting on your sport/team. Again, I just don’t get why this concept is so hard to get when MLB, NFL and NBA teams trade players for future assets every single year and usually end up with better draft slots (or at least odds since Hornets never win the lottery).
