Are you implying that black people love chicken? I so happen to be an african american and am seriously offended.

"Searching for his next step after six years in the NFL, Tim decided to follow his entrepreneurial spirit and opened his own retail jewelry store in Charlotte, NC. Seven years and two locations later, Tim enjoyed success at every level. As the economy tumbled and the market declined, Tim began to rethink his strategy. Although the stores were profitable, he opted to exit early and sold the businesses. As he considered his next move, Tim spoke to his mentor who recommended franchising as an option. After much review and consideration, Tim chose to get involved with Bojangles."

Batuka was one of the most expensive per game Panthers, maybe the most. Probly the first hold out, drafted eigth. Seems he held out but wound up signing for basically what was offered. Wasn't he one of the guys that spoke 100 languages? A starter his rookie year, blew a knee early in the season. He played very well in college and quit early to play NFL. If you were dissapointed in his NFL preformance, you were not alone. Batuka was also dissapointed in his NFL career. Kind of like some US presidents, a lot of hope, but unfortunate preformance (blame who you will). Maybe he started too quickly. Maybe he should have finished college first. If I were him now, I blame Capers for starting him too fast. Best, his first 100 yard game was against the Falcons. (Were they in our division then?)

Here is a good link to a sumary.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      By strato · Posted

      Everybody made too much of that. The CBA and the 17 game schedule is what kills the cohesion we see in teams across the league in the opening games.  You decide, look at your depth and make informed decisions there or you get a an extra quarter or whatever two quarters with your ones.  Teams that are set don’t have those openings as much down the roster to evaluate but that ain’t everybody. It is quandary. I think they need that 4th preseason game back. But as I said, I don’t lay that as the excuse for Bryce to come out looking like he does to start seasons. He has an entire camp.

      Tell Me How Carolina Wins Against the Rams

      By strato · Posted

      Hey I said the 1pm west coast team, I said the up down up down and we were due for the up week.  You can’t know what is going to happen. There was a guy that detailed why the league would engineer a Panthers win to bring LA Rams back to the pack in conference standings.  Who really knows, and how much real belief do you have when citing these things? I generally have as much as my superstition allows. It rarely rises to an emotional experience. Usually it is more analytical. In terms of interest. When crazy poo happens and we win a game like today I for sure enjoy it.  I mean you have to think about it, how many times do you connect 2 4th and short situations for TDs? Who does that? That is like the most embarrassing thing for the Rams’ defense lol. That never happens and should never happen.  Expecting it to happen might not be a good plan. But it was pretty great

      The defense has mostly stuck to the "break slowly" and get a turnover or two still zero pass rush
