I see my dad often, and talk to him often. And it doesn't take Father's Day to appreciate him, BUT, its not every day that we get to spend time together like we did today. I didn't buy him a gift, because like I said, its not like that. We went to a movie and I bought him lunch. And I'll see him tomorrow probably like normal. I don't see anything wrong with a special day just for Dad.

I see what the OP means, about the "Hallmark" side of it. I do hate that side of it. But, you don't have to buy into all that crap, if you just want a day to spend with your father. I value all the time I have with my father, especially after he's beat 2 kinds of cancer, it really puts things into perspective. I didn't buy him anything either, but he's not that kind of person anyway.

If you have a half decent father, then it shouldn't take a random day in June for you to appreciate him anyway, if you don't, then the holiday is stupid and pointless, but the real winners today are the Gift Card makers who will make millions of dollars.....

I see your point. Same with Mother's Day and Valentine's Day. But you didn't really have to go there. We all know about these days. It's a commercial holiday, but you can still go out and do something nice for good ol' dad just to show your appreciation.

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
