Ban Trd?

I don't fault Mayhem for losing his last fight, it was clear he was injured but Dana had it out for him since the beginning. Some guys Dana just doesn't like and Mayhem is one. If he pulled out due to injury, he would have been fired either way. If he won that fight like CB did, he'd be fired. People hate on The Count but he's a really good fighter. Many people get easier roads in the UFC than Mayhem got. If you don't think Mayhem has skills, you don't watch enough fights.

He has no business in the UFC. Let him stick to Strikeforce or Bellator. Simple as that.

Enough about the real person; why don't you put a skimpy picture up there or something.

You know, it may be a facet of me expecting too much from the Huddle. I come here for discussions with people who are foremost, fans of the Carolina Panthers and supportive of the players that play for the Panthers.

There seems to be a thread of thought instead that is is a place for people to look at borderline titty threads and talk about racism in every other topic.

If it's the former, that's why I put together posts like my breakdown of a play that I did a few months ago, to share with like-minded fans reasons that we can be excited for the future, and post news articles about the team when I come across them.

If it's the latter, there's 9 billion other places on the internet I can find tits (uncovered ones too!) and if I want to talk racism I only need wade into a Yahoo! comments thread.

The reason I get so infuriated about the tolerance of posters like TRD and Grits and others is that other team fan forums are far more proactive in weeding out troublemakers and allowing their posters to feel they are in a like-minded area that supports the team they are a fan of. This is the largest Panthers forum out there, and yet I have seen more pro-Dalton RoTY arguments here than ANY Bengals forum, more obsession over Matt Moore than any Dolphins forum, and more RG3 douchiness than any Hogs forum. And the worst part is that I have friends among all those fanbases and forums, and I have discussed all three of those players in a more than favorable light, because I hope they all do well and have broken down aspects of their plays on other forums to the encouragement of their fans. But the trolls here. . .they're just assholes.

The last fight I saw him fight he was embarassingly out of shape.

Yeah, he had a crazy adrenaline dump after being back in the UFC and after not fighting for a long time. People forget he won the first round before not being able to move in the second.

You must really miss kindergarten huh?

I wouldn't ban TRD or Grits. What separates this forum from the standard team owned sites is the greater tolerance of differing opinions. I rarely if ever agree with either of them but support their right to say what they want. Frankly I enjoy their lame banter and find it easy to refute their logic. Neither are a threat to the huddle but are like court jesters and buffoons. Slightly humorous at best and mildly annoying at worse.

If we got rid of every stupid poster and troll, this board would be like a lot of other Panther sites with little to no traffic and everyone saying the same trite comments over and over.

The majority of the time those topics aren't brought up by TRD and Grits. Just saying

I mean if you don't think a guy constantly bashing a one of the best young quarterbacks in the league with innumerable comparisons to Matt Moore is either:

A. some next level-esque Andy Kaufmann type comedy

B. some of the most delicious schadenfreude out there

C. a wonderful combination of both

you are missing out on a good time.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
