NFL article link

The Wall Street Journal reported recently that owners have given permission for microphones to be placed on certain players so that fans can listen in via an in-stadium phone application that will distribute the raw feeds. We've heard plenty of players miked via broadcast television, but never at the stadium.

Wanna keep people coming to the game? Tell them Steve Smith is going to be mic'd up. I will pay for that everytime I come without a shadow of a doubt. There nothing funnier than hearing the trash talk on the field. Too bad they didnt have this in Rucker's days.

yeah Nascar's been doing for awhile now huh? like 20 years or more I think lol. Maybe thats tells you how strong an issue this is with owners and how serious they are about keeping fans in the stadium. It should have an 18 or older thing on it though and be unedited (accept for obvious play or team info).

yeah Kendrick its the biggest ripoff today isnt it? I hear ya but I have to have it. ya know, Im going to lookinto just doing the phone part of mine and cut all the 4g data bs. . maybe just use wifi for data. Idk if i have to go to Boost or Virgin mobile to do that, but I will if I have to.

Nascar doesn't keep the mic open when the car gets into a wreak or catches on fire. Football is an extremely violent sport, players get hurt all the time. They cry, they whine, they bitch and moan just like everyone else. I'm just waiting for the day someone gets hurt while mic'd, cries like a girl, then sues because everyone with the app heard it and ithas now hurt his tough guy football player image

I love it but I don't have one of those smart phones. Not everyone likes paying for that bs.

Love my iPhone. Was a skeptic at first but once I got my hands on one...everything was awesome. Smart phones are anything but bs.

      The Carolina Huddle

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
