Discouraged Fan.

Feeling very alone on an island right now. Friends, co-workers, neighbors all make fun of me and the Panthers as they root for whomever.

I see no one wearing panther gear in Raleigh. All kinds of ravens, steelers, cowboys and skins fans. I saw ONE guy with a Panther hat at Crazy Fire the other night - wanted to high five five him.

The Huddle. Seems most people are concerned with next year and the draft. I haven't even looked 'Luck' up but to wonder why if this guy Cam (who seems like a thug) is going to win the Heisman why we wouldnt want him, followed by the uncertainty of labor negotiations - seems highly doubtful this Luck guy would even come out and even if I did I haven't given up on Clausen. I wish he wouldnt stare at the WR he is going to throw to and im sick to death of check-downs..but that can be learned / un-learned. I just dont think he can throw the deep throw...every one 'deep' seems to be this freaking lob. It would irk me if we just give up on him and the draft pick he cost us.

But back to being a discouraged fan. I swear I am like the only person rooting for the Panthers. I can understand fair weather fans in women, but wtf..even here on the Huddle?

Is it wrong to call out a 'fan' who thinks losing, at any time, no matter the situation...NOT a fan??

I guess ive gotten used to the jabs since i live in tx. Gotta represent your team man, no matter what. At least the cowboys fans are somewhat subdued this year. That will change now since they have managed to win a few, im sure.

Panther gear is always a guaranteed way to get some poo slinging in a bar around here.

What? A thug? People throw around that word very loosely around here.

Anyways, stop worrying about other people and rep your team. We all get made fun of man. Hopefully, we can become a dominant team in the future(I know most of you feel JR has put us in "good position" to do that anyways :rolleyes:), and you can return the favor and make fun of and talk smack back.

I catch the occasional hurp durp Panthers sure do suck this year at work from the various Redskins/Cowboys chumps that have business in my area. I usually hurp durp them back and don't care because I've been through shitty seasons before as a Panthers fan and I'm just taking things as they come.

There was a Packers fan who used to work with me who was actually from Wisconsin and he picked on one of the more annoying Redskins fans about how he had actually been to Lambeau and seen his team in person. He had absolutely nothing to say to that. Piece of advice: those kinds of people are mean poo until you point out that they've only seen their team on TV. Also grow some thicker skin because this won't be the last shitty Panthers season in your lifetime.

    • Another thread where the Huddle melts down over a Bryce comment.  "Conversations" and "Bryce Young has been signed to a new long-term contract" are still far away from being the gospel.  For a fanbase that has watched two top-3 drafted QBs come here, and us move on, only to see them elevate their play elsewhere, I find it comical. Bryce is flawed but this org is damned if you do and damned if you don't with BY9.  Why would our GM and HC say anything other than supportive about their QB1. Yes, he's extended, but I truly do not think if he goes out and has a repeat of the previous seasons, that he is here beyond 2027. They're giving him every opportunity and surrounding him with a ridiculous amount of assets on both sides of the ball. If he continues to pitch 110 yd/ game and cough up the ball while everyone else is busting their ass, no way Dan keeps him beyond the extension.   
    • Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate. I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19. I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.
    • Sam Darnold & Bryce Young are two very different Qbs ..just saying the last 25 years approximately 2/3 of ALL  first round Qb's  in the NFL were or are bust.so for everyone who makes it like a Sam Darnold you have two that don't make it or are a bust
