Atlanta, NO, Tampa

i feel like if you live in florida, atlanta or louisiana, you hate the team with the fans you have to deal with. For me its the saints becuase i go to LSU. And to suddenly like the saints is a trend. No one went to those games or gave a flying eff about the team before last year, even considering what they did in '06. Now, sorority girls are yelling "who dat" and the LSU suddenly recognizes the saints in the newspaper, etc. My first two years at school were wonderful during football season becuase it was like living in an area of the country that didn't have a team. Now its annoying and the saints bandwagon and the pity story of new orleans is in full bloom.

new orleans, easily, and it's almost 100% because of their obnoxious fans.

my beef with atlanta has historically been their shithead players, but they've shaped up rather nicely, and while i still hate them because they're the dirty birds and always will be, i at least respect them now.

i rather like tampa bay, i'll admit it. if they weren't a hated division rival i might actually pull for them on a weekly basis.

buuuuut yea fug the saints.

Atlanta since I grew up there. Easily my most hated team. To be honest, I never really cared about New Orleans since they were always irrelevant. And then I moved to Tampa and had to deal with more crap from rival fans... thankfully the Bucs have sucked lately and no one around here seems to care about them.

Hate is too strong a word. I really don't like Atlanta, followed by the Saints then Tampa. I also hold a special place in my really don't like vault for Dallas and Washington. Still bitter about Superbowl so I root against the Patriots whenever possible.

Up until last year it was the Falcons. I agree with someone, the Vick days were hell.

But now, its the Saints. They have the most pathetic "fans" in history. The dome used to be half full a few years ago, BEFORE Katrina, now everybody and their moms are Saint fans. I hate Drew Brees, Sean Payton, Pierre Thomas, Shockey, everybody on that fuging roster.

Tampa.....ehh.

Atlanta, easily. Most ignorant fans in the division, 3rd worst in the league (behind Dallas and Pittsburgh fans). Obnoxious as hell. New Orleans fans can be ok, plenty are annoying, but not nearly as bad as Atlanta fans. I have no particular dislike of TB or its fans. I see them as a good rival team, but that doesn't mean I have to hate them.

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
    • Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
