Attention Seeking, Nostalgic Pining, & Daily Grievances (In Here)


Recommended Posts

A very knowledgeable poster that has since left the board after all of the toxicity that's been allowed allegedly reached out awhile back about buying the site but iirc the evaluation and asking price were very far apart.

Idk the truth of all of that... just passing along another Panthers-related rumor.

Never created the first account.  I saw the writing on the wall at it's inception and made the decision to avoid it altogether.  How many lives have been ruined because of social media? Too many.

Igo initially created this forum for close friends after main forum got shutdown.  I love this niche format and I know many others do as well.  Igo can definitely cash in but huddle is his baby so who knows.  I think Panthers sucking for the past 6 seasons does no favors to fanbase either.  Once the panthers start clicking again, this place will fill up again.

"toxicity" meaning we didn't use mod powers to create a personal echo chamber for them.

Sure seems this place is overall considerably less toxic after most of the people whining about people having the audacity to express football opinions on a forum built to discuss football up and left. I hope they're happy at their Discord. They wanted an echo chamber and they made themselves one. It worked out best for everyone.

Do you remember the asking price by chance? 

I would assume Igo has to be making some money, or the site wouldn't be worth buying. The site must be at least have to be self-sustaining. I wouldn't even want it if it wasn't at least that. 

The only way I would figure that Igo would neglect the site as he has is that he has lost interest, but the site is still making money on a small margin, enough to pay for itself under current conditions, and/or he needs the money--- or is simply using the money for other things and bleeding it dry. It may be to the point that he doesn't want to put any more resources into it because it would actually cost him money. I don't know, all I can do is speculate. I do know that the site needs to be fixed. I just got my year's badge under an alt. That's crazy. It's been a year since I lost access to my regular account, and nothing has been done. Well, I guess "Top Dawg" is no more. LOL 

Igo probably just has a lot going on. At least he says he's going to right the ship. We'll see.

As the world turns...the young and the restless. I didn't know all of that was going on. It's not that serious, people. I get it, we all get lost within our online existence and it's important to us. The Panthers are important to us (the NFL has done its job well), but at the end of the day, people, it's not that serious. It's not even real life. Sure, I guess that some of us know each offline, and even not we still get into our scruffs and take part in each other's lives online, but it's a message board at the end of the day. It's not that serious.

This place didn’t use to be just a message board though, back in the day several huddlers would actually get together and tailgate at the games.  Several huddlers know each other through those and we all shared one passion, the Panthers.  Nothing else mattered.  That all changed in this new world we live in.

    • Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.
    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
