I may not be the smartest guy in the world but I think I have the most logical solution here,

During only the football season, raise hotel and food taxes at rates high enough to where us fans can pick up this bill! We want it the. Lets keep it! No need to punish the non football fans year round, even though they benefit greatly from an NFL team in their backyard

This would be a nightmare for local businesses and hotels. Simply unworkable.

Why? The administrative inconvenience beats the possibility of losing the Panthers! I come from Va at least twice each season and end up spending no less than 1200 each trip, so assuming there is quite a few more like me then businesses want to keep that going

I hope you're including ticket cost into that...even then...that's too much

Interesting idea but a 1% tax on food an beverage is much simpler...

I for one am not about to fork over an extra $.04 for my pint of Guinness just so fat cat JR can save himself a few hundred million.

Is someone forcing you to buy Guinness within the city limits?

How about this, I'll reimburse you the $.04 for each pint if it means that much to you? LOL

...and it's not to save JR money, it's to make sure the next owner can't move the Panthers away from CLT for at least the next 15 years.

Without this investment, we won't get that security... so is it worth $.04 per pint to make sure you have a team for the next 15 years?

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol

      Uh oh, Nicole Tepper hugged him. In all seriousness though every time I see more about him my hopes get higher. Smart, great attitude, prototype size and measurables, and athletic. He could be a great one.
