Charlotte is one of the worst sports towns in the country. They would be retarded to move here.

What is your proof to back up your statement? Why did the NBA want to replace the Hornets so quickly after they left?

I think Charlotte would have sold out that game if one of their team was about to clinch a playoff spot.

It's not a bad sports town, it's just young. We haven't quite had the time (or winning consistency in the teams) to develop our own identity. Charlotte is still primarily in its first and second generation of fans.

As for the Rays in Charlotte, they'd be no better off here than in Tampa (though we could give them a baseball-friendly climate and a nicer park.) If you think its tough trying to develop a Rays fanbase there, take a look at the 47-page Atlanta Braves thread...

That's not even counting the Yankees, Red Sox, Cubs and other large MLB fan contingencies found in NC.

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
