  1. As a music historian in the year 2500, you're tasked with identifying one singular song that identified music genres from this current timeframe (that timeframe could be from 1800 - today, if you need boundaries). With that in mind, while it might be easy to pick a single artist to best represent any particular style of music -- it gets harder when you're limited to a single song. So --- what ONE song would you pick to be the ideal representation in each (any?) of the following genres: Rock Rock and Roll Classical Punk Classic Rock Alternative New Wave Grunge Disco The 60's 80's Pop 90's Pop Country Rap Hip-Hop
  2. I think the Panthers social/marketing team have done a terrific job in filming and sharing draft day activities in recent years Looking forward to what they do this year without the rumored handcuffs they may have been placed under in recent times
  3. The Bucs change in logo and branding from "Bucco Bruce" to what they have now was fairly well executed. They kinda needed to do something. We do not. Sir Purr for the win
  4. It's fixable on the helmet display. Just make the left-hand whiskers (which are the ones hidden on the right side of the graphic), black.
  5. Was at one of these dinners once. The candidate was being asked so many questions/responding that they could barely eat anything on the plate. One of the sr people at the table had to jump in and say, "hey everybody - let's let them grab a bit to eat, we're all finished with our meals - they haven't eaten a thing"
  6. Looks like Apple is doing something super-awesome for their MLB streams They're going to have the local radio announcer audio as an alternative audio source for viewers Now if YouTube did that for its NFL sunday ticket, that would be awesome
  7. I think he kept a low profile early in the season figuring out the best way to address it, plus the rock hill debacle probably took his attention away a bit. He may have just suffered from a bad sense of timing rather than reluctance in admitting the obvious.
  8. I doubt they'll force us to go to Europe this season, knowing we're doing Germany next year.
  9. it was tough watching the Amazon Prime season of ALL OR NOTHING, feature the Cam vs Pittsburgh game. Ugh. (up to then, the show is terrific)
  10. All teams get at least one primetime game. It may be Thursday. But it's still primetime.
  11. Thurs, for sure. Right now, mnf or snf only if flexed later in the season. Still unproven to guarantee scheduling Might get better national coverage, lead games with Greg Olsen announcing though.
  12. I'm surprised King even knows how to spell "Panthers". He certainly hasn't spent a lot of time writing about us over the years.
  13. The telecast is just too darn long. There's no reason for them to joke every year about the length of the program. 25 awards? Each speech is a minute, we're looking at 30m just for this. The category/nominee list? If they can keep this to 90s total then that's about 45m. Throw in some fluffy other material, and you're at a solid 90m by itself. Let's add 4 minutes of commercials every half-hour, and you're basically hitting the two hour mark. There's no reason this needs to stretch more than 30m over that timeframe. No reason for the Oscars show to last longer than an NFL football game. On the plus side, they let most of the recipients actually give reasonable speeches without playing them off this year. Was able to watch the entire Oscars starting at 8p, pause it to watch the LAST OF US. Pause again to track down and watch one of the nominated Shorts -- and STILL catch up enough to watch the final four awards be given out live.
  14. yup was announced before the Pooh copyright ran out (which happened earlier this year) and went to public domain for most (not all) of the characters There is some question about whether they can get away with a Disney-stylized character reference (which ARE protected by copyright) or if they can utilize characters in the original pen/ink styles They're already working on a sequel as people seem to have responded positively to the concept.
  15. CMC wanted to stay in Carolina forever, if i recall his words from a different interview correctly. Fans wanted him to stay. The NFL had him in their promo package (and how often do we see Carolina in NFL promo pieces?). But from our play calling (at the time), he was a liability. Pretty much every play we did was "give CMC the ball, because he's our best player". Trading him to SF was a good move for him, season-wise. He was put into a better team, better situation. As for us, taking CMC off the roster allowed other players to step up and add a bunch of different options to our playbook. If we had traded CMC one or two weeks earlier (and gotten rid of Rhule earlier as well) -- our season likely would have ended with a better record overall. I don't think we would have done as well as we did end up this season if we had kept CMC the entire time. Totally no hard feelings about the trade -- there really only was upside for CMC in the end. Luke's retirement hit harder for everybody, I think, in terms of "which player leaving was a gut punch" answer.
  16. One memory of JR: tailgating at one of the Clemson home games, and Jerry is being driving around in a golf cart. Everywhere he went were echoes of "Thank you, Mr Richardson". His reply was always the same: "No, thank YOU for your support"
  17. Technically, it was October 1993. Took two years to put the team on the field.
