How much do the Panthers effect your overall mood

I still look forward to games. We might lose by 21 + on Thurs but I can't wait for the game. Win or lose, it is a distraction/entertainment to invest emotionally in a sport team and something you can no control over. They serve the purpose regardless for the most part.

I don't really care right now. You just gotta accept the season will be crappy and wait till the offseason for changes to come.

When we're actually good it pisses me off that I wasted 3 hours to watch a team underachieve. If we're geniunely outclassed then it doesn't bother me. Or if it's a close game against a quality opponent then it's disappointing but not enraging.

This season quit bothering me about 5-6 games ago.

great thread..

that's a 2 part question..

I have an extreme competitive streak.. I like to talk poo and I hate to lose.. so in normal years, I may need a couple hours after a loss before I get calls from my friends who might pull for the Bucs, Pats, or whoever.. They know if they call me during a loss or right after a loss, I'm about to rip them over the phone..

This year.. when it's obvious it's a down year, it hardly affects me.. there is no reason to invest my emotions in a 2-14 (I hope) year.. I feel if people are still pissed because we are losing, then they have no concept of how to separate expectations/acceptance and reality..

next year will be a similar year as this.. I doubt the playoffs will be in our future when a new system is being put in place.. if so, we are ahead of the curve. I will hate to lose, but it should be expected..

    • I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.
    • holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
    • Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
