I was walking on Lafayette today grabbing lunch and I saw a big poster on a building promoting Thurs Sept 9 NFL kickoff with Dave Matthews Band and one of the girl country singers... with either NBC or CBS and Coors sponsors amongst others on it. The big boys plan on starting the season as normal... I hope.

its actually related to football, this budget that should've been passed last year is being held up over abortion funding(over 90% of PP multi-billion dollar industry). Planned Parenthood was founded by Margaret Sanger with the stated objective of 'exterminating the black population', which is why their abortion clinics are strategically placed in inner cities around the country.

and thus deprive us of the opportunity to draft and be entertained by Cam newton

"We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the ***** population," she said, "if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

- Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood founder

Planned Parenthood is not a fan of Cam Newton

really guy you know this is just a dick measuring contest right? aint nobodies family going to starve

This. However if this shutdown is as nasty as it is threatening to be, there is going to be a SERIOUS drop in morale.

As a veteran, I know that most military members could give a fug less what happens to them physically (i.e. push ups, 24 hour shifts) as long as they get that check.

Lets see how the re-enlistment and recruiting rate goes NOW.

You will see a lot of AWOL, suicide threats, and nasty uproars if these guys don't get paid. They deserve their money!

Well being current military they must measure up evenly because our LES's (pay stubbs) already reflect only 8 days of pay instead of the 1st through the 15th that it normally does for mid- month pay.

I am vet myself, I know this sucks. But, the troops will get paid. It may be a week on the 15th and the other 3 weeks on the 1st. Single service members and married ones in the field have the basics covered. The married ones, will have to prioritize, which sucks (I know). Creditors/utilities/land lords typically work with military families in situations like these. I was in during the 1995 shutdown, we were told the same thing and we were paid correctly because it only lasted 6 days (and fell right during the month).

To bad politics have to played on everything, this budget should have been passed on Sept 30th, last year. It was an election year, tho...

Here is some info on this last one and what may happen on this one:

"However, if the shutdown lasts past Tuesday, the senior defense official said, the Pentagon is making plans to have an emergency payday and troops may not have to wait until May 1."

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too!

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
