:D

Here's what I don't understand. This organization spends tens of millions of dollars on a defense. The coordinator of our defense is responsible for making sure that this unit works together and operates as an effective unit.

Ron Rivera is the nerve center of our defense. You take him out of the equation and plug in a giant '?' to run our defense next year and you jeopardize the effectiveness of your entire defensive asset that you spent tens of millions of dollars creating. Jim Harbaugh just got a HC contract that is considered extravagant at 5 million per year. How much money would it take to keep RR in San Diego? If it's under 3-4 million, it makes sense to pay the man responsible for making our defense perform at a high level. It just makes sense.

So why is no one talking about it and everyone seems fine with just letting him go to Carolina as if it doesn't mean anything? It could ruin our entire defense. It just doesn't make sense to let him go.

Pretty sure the only thing at the top of Rivera's list is head coach.. he's finally getting it.. only thing that might keep him in San Diego is making him HC..

AJ Green looks incredible.

Cam Newton's credentials are not set in stone just yet.

Bowers is a great kid and could be a force.

Peterson is a competitor and a physical specimen.

really, the panthers should ignore their roster and pick the player they are most sure can have a HOF-type career.

I'm sorry but there isn't a DT in this draft that is worth the 1st pick overall and taking Bowers is reaching a bit but would still work if it was a major need..which I don't think it is.

The Panthers will either reach for a QB that the team likes or take Green or Peterson with that first pick.

Trading back is still an option if the price is right.

      Yep, like I said, I don't mind guaranteeing them money, but make the contracts smaller amounts in order to minimize cap implications. I don't know about "half," the actual amounts, whether more or less than half, would have to be determined by the NFL and NFLPA (which will probably be highly contentious, if not "impossible").  I'm just for whatever leads to the best product on the field while also unaffecting my wallet. As an aside, the NFL owners are greedy bastards in my estimation. They're trying to keep a larger portion of the pie, but players' agents are greedy as well, and they've sewn seeds of greed among the players. It's not all their fault; we all know what our society has evolved into, but the NFL wants a bigger piece of our smaller pocketbooks and refuses to "negotiate" with us (that's why we don't have cheaper and more reasonable à la carte options to view games that they're gradually trying to migrate to paid TV), so fu<k 'em. And then on top of that we have guys trying to water down the product even more by feeding greed. Change the way things are done so that we can at least see players prove themselves on the field without throwing wrenches into the engine that pays guys that have proven they can play on a pro level.

      OK, I didn't realize this was about high school, but...if I'm spending my personal money trying to help some kids out, then no one is going to tell me how to spend my money. I get enough of the government spending my money--allocating my tax dollars--to children who don't really need anything, and now they're trying to tell me how to spend my personal money? Sure, there are many other issues to consider and rabbit holes that we could go down due to ethical concerns because it concerns kids, and the need for transparency is extremely important, but maybe as opposed to trying to stop kids from benefitting in darkness, we need to open up the blinds (and blinders) a little bit so that they can benefit in the light. I get where you're coming from, but this is a loaded and layered issue, and I'm just trying to give you some food for thought.
