When your last season was as hopeless as the 2010-2011 season for the Carolina Panthers, you need to do something big to improve the team as much as you can. The Panthers appear to have done just that in this past week, acquiring what may be a crucial part of any hopes they have of a quick turnaround.

Not a very good writer, IMO.

I've read worse on bleacher report but it was still rather awful.

<3 you guys too.

Anyone have any actual constructive criticism I could use? I haven't even started my first year of studying journalism yet, so it's obviously not going to be as good as a majority of the articles you see on larger sports websites. That's why useful feedback would help instead of "olololol bad".

And yeah, I noticed the run-ons now that I look. I was running on three hours of sleep and caffeine yesterday. Not really surprising. Shouldn't happen too often.

Before we start the "it's terrible" crap, keep in mind, I'm an 18 year old writer who's just going into his first year old college for Journalism. Or course this isn't as good as ESPN articles and other stuff. So, if you have a suggestion or any HELPFUL criticisms to help me improve, go right ahead. But temper your expectations a bit. I'm not even through college yet. Just out of high school, in fact. So bear with me for now until I get some more experience under my belt.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
