Hey all (any Raleigh/Durham people around?)

Just wanted to say hello to everyone. Next week I'll be moving to the Raleigh/Durham area of NC (from Philadelphia) and I was hoping some of you Panther bretheren can offer some guidance as to where some of the best sports bars/spots to go catch a game might be at in either town. Any other information, tips, or direction for getting acclamated to the area will be greatfully accepted as well. Thanks! :sifone:

There are a few here from Raleigh. Panthro and I went to NCSU. Not sure about any good bars cuz place has changed so much since I've been there on a regular basis. My sister and brother still live there. I liked living there.

God I wish you could take me back home....I am from RDU and live in Lehigh Valley....I wanna go home!! There will plenty of cool places to check out in the Triangle but it depends on whether you want to be in Raleigh - Durham - Chapel Hill for sports bars.

BTW, welcome!

New guy here reppin' Raleigh. My first year back in NC after a couple years away for grad school.

I know we have fans in the area but where do they watch the games? I watched a couple away games at Carolina Ale House, overall good atmosphere but I did spend a buttload on the big HD tv for a reason and usually stay home for away and make the trip for the home games.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
