And one more thing, does anybody even remember knowing what a Patriots fan was before they started their run last decade?

And yet somehow their the most loyal?

I guess it's easy to be "loyal" when your team is constantly in the playoffs..

We know this article is bullcrap because the Raiders are in the bottom 5 with us.

They've sucked for decades and still have a dedicated (albeit insane) fanbase.

Last season it got to the point where you had people posting about how they were mocked for wearing Panthers gear....in the city of Charlotte.

Its funny that you say that... I came down to Charlotte for the Ravens game wearing my Black&Blue and saw nothing but Black&Purple. Walking down Tryon Street looking to get some food, I actually passed a group of Raven's fan and got laughed at for wearing and showing my support for the Panthers. I expect that were I live (that being in Baltimore) but not in Charlotte. Definitely was not a good season to be a Panthers fans.

I cry in your general direction. But not for you, someone here may think I am a Panther fan and make fun of me then. :rolleyes:

Oh we have a ton of fair weather fans no doubt but we're young.

Having said that...

I have to point out that along with the Browns, Skins, & Raiders being in the bottom 5 with us, the Packers 4th?!? Really?

Eta: The Bears not in the top 5? This system is Bullpoo.

I remember a couple months ago I said something similar. I said that it was embarrassing to wear a Panthers jersey here in town because everywhere I went I was made to explain my teams suckage, Jake, etc.

This poll is a direct reflection of JR's public relations of late.

Interestingly I live 40 miles west of Charlotte and frankly I wear my Panthers gear year round. Sure I got a few comments this year like they are really having a tough year etc, but I have not been laughed at once. I wore it to every game and didn't get laughed at even when we lost by big margins.

I don't know why my experience seems different from most folks posting but it does.

      Fire Rod

      I agree that roster construction is a bigger issue than Rod.  I don't know what coach behind the bench is winning this series.  We weren't even supposed to compete this year, but people are mad because we're getting swept in the ECF again.  If we lost in 7 last round people wouldn't feel that way.

      And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot

      I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
