Your "low point" as a Panthers fan

For me it was the AZ playoff loss. I was only 11 or 12 when we went to the Super Bowl, but I knew the Patriots were very good. I remember hoping that we could beat them, but not being very optimistic about it. However, after the 2008 season I felt we had a realistic chance to at least get to the NFCCG. Stewart's early touchdown in that game reinforced my conviction that we could do something special that year. Then everything went to hell. I don't think I've ever gone from higher than I was after Stewart's touchdown to as low as I was by halftime of that game faster than I did that night.

 

With that said, however, I think this could be a good year.

I'm old enough to remember the 1-15 season - THAT'll really make your pecker droop! Other than than, the deflation I felt as I attended the 2008 playoff implosion at BoA probably ranks up there too. But after the 1-15 season, everything since has looked comparatively rosie. That's not to say there have been sucky times since then, but 1-15 helps me keep it all in persepctive.

Cardinals playoff game was on my birthday...so that sucked.

 

The Super Bowl obviously sucked, but at the same time, I went into it thinking we didn't have much of a chance. The comeback in the 2nd half built me up, and then it crashed obviously.

 

And sadly, with the 2010 season, I got to the point where I didn't even watch most of the games. I had better poo to do than watch that dumpster fire.

I'd much rather sit through that 1-15 season again than the 2-14 one....

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      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.
