...are fed up of this board?

The general stupidity of the majority of posters is through the roof, with even the usually fairly reasonable ones lowering themselves to counter the idiots.

There isn't one insightful or well thought out thread (including this one) out there and the ones that have promise are quickly replaced.

I did a count earlier and there were 8 threads on the first page about Cam Newton. Ridiculous.

Half the board has been declared as haters or racists, simply because they don't like Cam Newton. The media is racist because they 'hate' Newton, despite claiming he is a one of a kind specimen.

I was drawing up some threads on our hidden gems and unsung heroes from this season, but since all this crap started I really don't see the point. Anything worthwhile posting will be forgotten and buried inside 20 minutes as a 50 page personal feud plays itself out.

Everyone just needs to step away from Cam fricken Newton, on both sides. Let the process play itself out and start talking about other things. At the moment it's just two sides trying to prove who is the bigger idiot.

Oh, by the way. If you are this emotionally invested in one player, positively or negatively, you have lost sight of this process. We have no control over the player who is picked, however getting this worked up about it is only going to cause some people to be very disappointed in our FO with their first major decision.

Let's just talk about something different mmmmkay?

In all honesty this board has gone to trash lately.

I've contributed to the mindless debates but will not any longer. I used to love coming here and now don't really like it that much.

Hope we return to form soon

Bingo.

There are some long time posters here, that have suddenly started directing some genuine hate and aggression at each other over a 21 year old guy, who may or may not be our first ever #1 pick.

It's no surprise that the board is dominated by a load of guys who I have not seen before, whereas the regulars have done the sensible thing and stayed well away.

well lets see, since the draft is the only thing a team can do right now in this lockout offseason. What is it you suggest we talk about?

How about one of the other hundreds of potential recruits out there?

How about looking for slivers of hope from some of our emerging players from last year?

How about talking about positions for later rounds?

How about focusing on what is going to happen to our 'depth' at positions such as LB if the RFAs are made FAs because of the CBA?

The nuances of Rivera's defences and how they fit us or the offensive system of Chud?

That Richardson is apparently cheap, yet isn't auctioning the #1 pick to the lowest bidder like the Dolphins did?

Or how about rather than just declaring either side are haters or supporters, actually reason with each other. Both make valid points, yet both refuse to see the others point of view.

      What has happened in HS athletics busted full force into the college world with this NIL/transfer portal stuff. HS sports has been jacked up for a long time now. You have all these "prep schools" that are basically just diploma mills for athletes who hoover up all the good athletes they can get and they're all on scholarship. Then they go out and recruit decent athletes with rich parents to come onboard and pay outrageous tuition while they tout their success at getting their athletes college scholarships. Yeah, those athletes getting college scholarships are the same ones you're giving scholarships to so that you can use them to recruit the rich kids whose parents can pay for it all. You see the same thing in youth travel ball leagues. The whole thing is just getting crazy.

      It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
