From Panthers.Com:

SPARTANBURG, S.C. - NFL commissioner Roger Goodell will make an appearance at Panthers training camp Wednesday to host a fan forum and then watch the team practice.

Goodell's first training camp visit of 2011 - and his first trip to Wofford College for Panthers camp as commissioner - will kick off with a question and answer session with fans at approximately 5:15 p.m. on the bank that runs alongside the Panthers' lighted practice field. Fans are encouraged to come armed with questions for the commissioner.

Goodell will then watch the team's practice, scheduled to start at 6 p.m.

The visit comes on the heels of the completion of an unprecedented 10-year Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NFL and its players. During the negotiations, Goodell worked closely with Carolina Panthers Owner/Founder Jerry Richardson, who served as co-chair of the League's 10-owner executive committee.

During negotiations, Goddell conducted a fan forum via teleconference with Panthers PSL Owners, and he also joined Panthers head coach Ron Rivera for a trip to Fort Bragg that also featured a fan forum.

I prefer my own press release:

Goodell's first training camp visit of 2011 - and his first trip to Wofford College for Panthers camp as commissioner - will kick off with a question and answer session with fans at approximately 5:15 p.m. on the bank that runs alongside the Panthers' lighted practice field.

Well, here's mine:

SPARTANBURG, S.C. - The Carolina Panthers Training Camp at Wofford College will be the site of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s first 2011 Training Camp visit Wednesday, Aug. 3, when he participates in a fan forum prior to the team’s 6 p.m. practice.

The forum will take place on the bank overlooking the lighted practice field at Wofford at approximately 5:15 p.m. Wednesday and fans are invited to participate.

It will be Goodell’s first visit to Spartanburg since he became Commissioner and comes following the successful negotiation of an unprecedented 10-year Collective Bargaining Agreement for the League and its players.

The Commissioner will arrive in Spartanburg Wednesday afternoon and attend practice after the forum. Goodell has conducted numerous forums since becoming commissioner, but Wednesday will be his first since ratification of the CBA by both the owners and players.

During the negotiations, Goodell worked closely with Carolina Panthers owner and founder Jerry Richardson, who served as co-chair of the League’s 10-owner executive committee. The CBA allows the NFL to maintain competitive balance while providing economic support to past players and focusing on the health and safety of our current players.

Wofford College is the alma mater of Richardson and has been the home of the Panthers training camp since the team’s inaugural season in 1995.

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
