One colossal, collective fantrum...


Mr. Scot

...is being thrown by the Panthers fanbase right now.

The main events so far this offseason:

- Owner puts out an embarrassing press conference

- Team loses (or gives away) any shot at Harbaugh

- Luck decides to stay in school

All we need now is for the announcement to come down that the Panthers have hired Greg Manusky :eek:

If that happens, Zod may as well just shoot whatever hamsters have survived the current meltdown and just give up.

At this point, a lot of fans are probably hoping for the lockout.

And to be brutally honest, after sitting through this season, and then watching the way the offseason has started out, a year without football doesn't sound so bad to me right now :(

What are the exact drafting procedures for a draft after a lockout year? I've found so many conflicting claims on what happens. Do you know Mr. Scot?

CBA mandates there is a draft before the expiring date. Thus, why we will have a 2011 Draft. However, the 2012 Draft is not clear.

Raging Bull got there before I did.. How long have we been in this "offseason"? Wow..

Er'rybody had their hearts set on this guy and we never really had him. I get he's the 'next big thing' but how are we all disappointed over something that was never ours in the first place? Its beyond our control, hurry up and wait to see whats next...

I never post on here. more of a lurker. But IMO allot of people are overreacting a bit. You dont pay an unproven NFL coach that much money making him the highest paid coach and you dont give him that much control, its just dumb.

And yes it sucks that luck is going to stay in school, but that was totally out of the panthers control. And IMO those who think hes staying because he doesnt want to come here are very wrong. If luck was as smart as everyone says he is, then he would have done his research and saw that none of the teams with top 5 picks this year are any wore than us, and we have just as much talent, maybe more than any of those teams

Im very disapointed, but with the right coach i see this teams future being very bright with or without luck

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
