I feel all lower paced sports will struggle going forward w/ eyeballs.  I mean, America's pasttime might do a good job of ripping off the youth/parents with forever baseball and 58 little league world series each year you can play in......but MLB is a tough watch vs other sports.  Golf the same.  We are grooming humans to need constant action thanks to the magically internet.  Hard to watch a game where the "action" and excitement might be a moment once an hour. 

Very true.  Sports are also getting crazier than ever.  I have seen full blown armored fights making a combat.  Bonkers to me Medieval fights are a thing again.  I don't watch it enough to know, but how has someone not died or been seriously injured?

How dare they spread such filth.  Just inhumanely terrible.

LOL! Yeah, the pearl clutching by some folks is just a little crazy. Of all the things in the world to get triggered by, a sports league dunking on your favorite football team's incompetence is the one you pick? Okay...

I honestly have no idea how anyone makes it through a baseball game. I'll catch maybe the last 4-5 holes of a golf major every now and then if it's close.

It's significantly better now with the pitch clock and ghost runners in extra innings.  The average game length is reasonable now.

Baseball's not for everyone but I think the big leagues are better than ever right now.

Baseball was the only sport that I thought was even boring to PLAY, much less watch. Hell, other sports even if I don't enjoy watching them they were fun to play. Baseball is just ass all around IMO. LOL

I don’t really get this being called a shot at tepper. More of a shot at all panthers players, coaches and fan base. I understand he owns the team but it’s more of a disrespect to the panthers in general. Trust me when I say I hate tepper just as much as the next guy but I feel like this is deflecting the jab onto him

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
