It's not my belief that the lockout will drag out so long that we will actually lose games, but I must admit to the possibility that it could.

In a worst-case-scenario like this, would you be okay with a partial season, or are you an "all or nothing" type?

Even if we have a 1 game season, I'm still going to watch and be 'ok' with it. I'd like to say that I won't watch to teach the owners a lesson, but they couldn't give sh!t either way. So 1 game or 18, I'm going to check out the action. I actually had fun pulling for Denver to win late last season, and we might have a similar situation next season.

If it becomes clear that they are going to miss games, the US government should intervene... Charlotte businesses shouldn't have to miss out on 64 million dollars of revenue generated by the 8 NFL home games because these spoiled children can't figure out how to split up 9 billion.

Yes the gubment should intervene in all contractual negotiations!

i would rather win a tainted superbowl than have a lockout.

You'd get poo for it and no respect at all for it. If we are talking 1 or 2 games obviously a huge difference than half the season.

But how prepared are teams really going to be getting into it mid season? Sounds like a disaster and some bullpoo fan wise and even more BS coming from a paying customer viewpoint.

yea, if there aren't any camps this year, the whole season is gonna be a crazy ass clusterf*ck.

which is part of the reason I don't understand drafting a QB this year. You aren't gonna be able to work with him, you aren't gonna be able to start him.

This will end by the draft. She will hear arguments on briefs she has already read and mostly made up her mind on based on law. within two weeks of this hearing next week she will rule.

My guess is she will rule the decertification is a sham, which it is, and therefor she will lift the lockout and have the league conduct business under 2010 rules and order both back to the table or else.

A week after the draft Free agency will start say on the 29th.

This season will will get played one way or the other. Too much money at stake and too many jobs and economy's affected outside just the owners and players.

I do expect her to rip some ass on both sides.

No season. Near impossible for a new staff just to be able to walk on field with a new team. Half aszed product at full price. No thanks. The difference in preparation between an Atalnta and San Fran would be night and day. Too many new staffs would know nothing about there team and wouldn't have installed the offense or d

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      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.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      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.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
