I never said I was happy about how things have transpired through the years, but I understand enough to know that my purchase of my PSL gives me no right to say I was guaranteed a Super Bowl or back-to-back winning seasons or anything else. I was guaranteed the right to my seat year after year, if I continue to pay my season ticket fee as I agreed to do.

I'm talking about the contract and what it does and does not do.

The emotional stuff ... that's a different animal.

Point out one time where I said that my PSls guaranteed that we win the Superbowl or have back to back winning seasons. When you don't find it, give it a rest. The reality is that Richardson is the one who said we would win a SB and said he hired Rivera because Fox couldn't produce back to back winning seasons. So apparently that is his expectations. So it is unreasonable for me to expect the same?? I know it isn't guaranteed and never said it was. So why do you say the same old tired thing when no one else said it was guaranteed??

Argue to Riddell if you want to talk contract. That is not my issue.

You do say it ove it over as if it is new information. It isn't. But that doesn't excuse his behavior or lack of putting out a competitive product. Just because it isn't in a contract or guaranteed doesn't make it right or fair. Any lawyer will tell you that. So yeah we are stuck, but I don't have to like it or keep quiet about it. If you want to remain a sheep, do so. I choose not to. And when I think it makes sense for me to sell them I will.

The discussion has been regarding what is legally guaranteed and what is not, and I have responded accordingly.

Never said you have to like anything, never said you have to be quiet.

Stating facts doesn't make me a "sheep."

I choose to keep my PSLs for my reasons. You may choose to sell yours for your reasons.

Doesn't change the fact that your contract with the Panthers doesn't give you the right to anything beyond what you contracted for. That's all I'm saying.

I stated a fact. I purchased my PSL for $3900, and I know I could get at least that right now for it.

Your claim was to the contrary.

No "old tired dogma" there.

I never said you couldn't get what you paid for it, I said I couldn't.

I agree that if you bought them 15 years ago and paid only 33% of what the Panthers value them at now, you might be okay. Aren't yours up for sale?? Let me know how that works out.

No that hasn't been my conversation at all. You are mixing conversations. Riddell is the one arguing contracts, I have been saying I feel ripped off and I am not happy about it and am letting my feelings out. You are the one constantly reminding me about the contract. I know what it says.

Stop it guys! ***slap*** Get a grip!

Move on to better things. JR's feelings were hurt, and the guy is just trying to save face (albeit very very weakly). JR was the alter ego of Al Davis last season who knew exactly what the fug he was doing by not spending at the fans' expense. I don't even know how this is a continued argument. I would suggest that you forgive him, but always remember where his mindset is. IF you can't deal with it, then sell yoour PSLs to the unknowing.

You asked:

Know anyone who is getting anything close to what they paid for PSls these days??

I have been offered more, but we are not desperate to sell at all. They are up for sale, but not out of desperation or because of the misery of last year's season. They are up for sale mostly for medical reasons, mine. But, I will continue to go to the games this year as long as I'm physically able to do so.

I hope the medical issues are manageable. And that you can hold onto the tickets until the franchise turns around and get a better value. While I may not agree with your views on everything, I certainly hope things go well for you in areas that really matter, like finances and health.

Truth is that given the changes he has made he might have salvaged his mistakes and we appear to be on a better path. Frankly if you can hold on, now would not be the time to sell if you don't have to. Once the economy improves and we actually win a few games, you might get a much better value.

      Playoffs!? You wanna talk about playoffs!?

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      So, Carolina (7-6) goes into a Bye Week while they sit on top of the NFCS with Tampa Bay (7-5). For those that don’t know here is how the tiebreaking procedures work for the Division: Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Strength of victory in all games. Strength of schedule in all games Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best net points in common games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss The Panthers are currently 7-6 with a 2-1 record in the division and a 5-3 record in the NFC. The Bucs are currently 7-5 with a 2-0 record in the division and 5-3 record in the NFC. *Should the Panthers make it to Tiebreaker #5 they will almost certainly lose since this team enjoys winning in the final minute each week. Hopefully, they can avoid letting it go that far. Remaining Schedules: The Panthers round out their schedule with: ·       Bye Week ·       @ New Orleans (2-10) ·       VS Tampa Bay (7-5) ·       VS Seattle (9-3) ·       @ Tampa Bay (7-5) Tampa will round out their schedule with: ·       VS New Orleans (2-10) ·       VS Atlanta (4-8) ·       @ Carolina (7-6) ·       @ Miami (5-7) ·       VS Carolina (7-6) So to make this even more complicated, you need to cheer for the Saints this week and be prepared to hate them next week. Hopefully, them, the Falcons, or the Dolphins can give us a hand along the way. Conclusion: The easiest path forward is to beat New Orleans and sweep the Bucs. However, that would be too easy so we may need some help from our cousins in Georgia and Louisiana. Personally, I think Miami may give Tampa some problems since it looks like they are starting to turn their season around. But knowing us, we will find a way to lose to the Saints and somehow beat Seattle just to keep things interesting. There is 1 quarter of the football season left, and the way I have it figured that’s kind of how our playoff chances go over the next 4 games: By finishing: ·       1-3: (Eliminated, even if one wins against Tampa, it won’t matter) ·       2-2: (50% chance depending on who we beat, if Seattle/New Orleans- No. If Tampa both times, maybe if not likely, would still need some help from somebody on their schedule). ·       3-1: (Very likely if not certainly. Would mean sweeping the Bucs and either the Saints/Seahawks OR beating Saints/Seahawks with at least one win against the Bucs) ·       4-0: (Dust off your Sunday best and clip your nails, we are hosting a playoff game!) So get ready for meaningful football in December, because it’s here for the first time in a long while.

      So....What Do We Do About Legette?

      By TD alt · Posted

      I really don't think so. They're different receivers. Coker doesn't have that straight line speed. X may have to worry if we bring someone else in, but I still think he has a chance to get it together.
