I realized last night that America just isn't ready. For what you say? It's just not ready. It's not done yet. Put it back in the oven. Gen-Y, I realized, is going to totally reshape this country once the baby boomers are dead. We've started. We've made strides. But it's not there yet.

Last night on Lavar Arrington's radio show here in D.C. they were talking about some NFL players who want to come out of the closet. Without missing a beat, Christy McSweartogodimnotahomophobe calls in. Teach Confucius! "Derr, Alabamma! HIV is still a huge problem in the gay community! There's blood being spilled on the field! It puts players at risk if players are gay!"

Of course. Because the NFL doesn't have HIV testing [it does] and because if they're gay they have HIV [they don't], and because making it acceptable to be gay in the NFL will meant that the league will suddenly be flooded with HIV positive homosexuals [it won't] and because HIV isn't also a huge problem is poor black communities, where the majority of NFL players come from [it is]. No the first thing this cat thought of at the mere mention of homosexuality was "HIV."

It was at that moment that I realized we're just not ready.

But that's not news. I think you're missing the big issue. Reality TV shows are actually (if it was possible) getting worse.. They say the NFL is a copycat league. Television is a copycat media:

Singing shows are popular? Let's make another one. Except in a big arena, with celebrity judges.

Chopped is getting good ratings on the Food Network. Let's make another one. Except in a big arena, with celebrity judges.

Millionaire Matchmaker is hot on Bravo? Let's make another one. Except in a big arena, with celebrity judges.

I can't wait til Netflix fills the decrepit old ***** called TV with hot lead and puts it out of its misery.

well, then don't think about it!!!! at the same time, I don't understand why so many people feel the need to fight against it, but that's just me.

      Anyone else think we’re getting too hyped

      Yes. It's fluff time anyways but it's getting a bit ridiculous. I don't believe this mix has ever worked for the Panthers before. Break .500 and then start the hype.

      While I have a chance to be overly excited I'll take that opportunity. The team will determine what happens with that. It's been a while since we've had much to be excited about, I'd say let's just embrace it and see how it unfolds.

      Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster.
