I know what you clicked on this link to say.  "Fine then, we don't need you".  "you're not a real fan", "how bout some loyalty", "stupid bandwagon fans".

 

Let me tell you something.  I have been a fan of this team since day 1.  For 20 years now, since the team was announced in 1993, I have loved the Panthers.  

 

It has come to my attention that if we want anything to change with this organization we are going to have to pressure Mr. Richardson where he can actually be pressured.  His wallet.  I want nothing more than to field a good football team with a competent coaching staff.  

 

I will not support a franchise that is not committed to winning. I will not waste my hard earned money on jerseys and tickets when the owner clearly doesn't want to field the best available coaching staff. I will not waste my Sundays again and again having my heart ripped out as the same outcome of shitty coaching is played out in front of us. 

 

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

 

 

 

 

I will not financially support this team any longer.  I have spent too much, and given too much of my time.

You seem well spoken. Write a letter, figure out a way to collect digital signatures and mail it to Richardson himself. Not only is he losing the trust of current fans. He is missing out on the younger generation as well as transplants into Raleigh and Charlotte.

I will be willing to draw a pie chart to show him the pulling power of these new arrivals and what he could do with the revenue stream brought in by winning and keeping his current fans plus adding new fans, versus losing support of the fools stupid enough to care.

If you feel like that will solve some issue you are having, sure.  This is your site.  Feel free to be as dictatorial as you please.

 

I have merely stated an opinion.

 

Well, you are boycotting the Panthers.

 

This is a panthers related site that helps build support for them.

 

So by being here you are supporting the panthers.

Will you join back if the team win the next game?

 

If by some miracle, Ron Rivera proves that it was just chance that he is 2-14 in games decided by a score.  If it is just statistical smoke and mirrors that he has blown countless 4th quarter leads.  If I am completely wrong in my assessment of this coaching staff and it turns out that Rivera is the best man for the job, not a cheap alternative to a real coach.  I will eat the biggest fuggin crow you can serve me.

 

However, I am not wrong.  The record doesn't lie.  Our coaching staff is incompetent.

I understand that I am possibly hurting your source of income and would not hold it against you for a second if you decided to ban me.

 

I have enjoyed this site for years.  I thank you for your effort in making it a place where people can share their opinions.

I don't want to ban you. But you are trying to boycott the Panthers.

 

Visiting this site indirectly helps the Panthers revenue. Watching the games on tv indirectly helps the Panthers revenue.

 

If you are going to really boycott them, you need to not watch, listen, or read anything panthers as they are all connected.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.

      If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?

      Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
