  1. Well, at least they are consistent. sold out of Oct/Nov already.
  2. ok, I see the irritation with conspiracy theorists. I just ignore them like I have been doing during elections and covid anyway so I am getting pretty damn good at it. I have been a fan of Tepper but the buck stops at his desk and he has some work to do.
  3. good article by Scott Fowler on the subject as well. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/scott-fowler/article254278628.html Not sure why they can't put their new mixed reality toy on top of the stadium screen while they help coordinate the Keep Pounding Chant.
  4. https://theathletic.com/2828732/2021/09/15/person-what-happened-to-the-keep-pounding-chant-for-the-panthers-in-week-1-and-will-it-return/ Holy cow, there is "projecting" going on involving a message board about an NFL team? WTF else does any poster on here have to do if not projecting or complaining about projecting while indeed projecting? And whether the call is stupidity or malice or even a combination of both it is certainly a relevant talking point. What is wrong with this board where so much energy is spent certifying which topics are worthy of discussion and which one's are not? Here is Person's take on it (pay wall) https://theathletic.com/2828732/2021/09/15/person-what-happened-to-the-keep-pounding-chant-for-the-panthers-in-week-1-and-will-it-return/ <snippet> There are a few things in Charlotte that should not be messed with: craft breweries, Bojangles and bankers’ hours. As for the local football team, at least two things are generally considered sacred — natural grass and anything related to Sam Mills. And in the space of a few months, the Panthers have botched both of them. On the same day the Panthers played their first regular-season game on artificial turf at Bank of America Stadium, they ditched the coordinated “Keep Pounding” pre-game chant that both fired up the home crowd and paid homage to Mills, the franchise’s only player to have his number (51) retired. It’s unclear whether it was an oversight by the team’s entertainment division or the Panthers simply decided to do away with what’s become a popular part of the game-day experience. As of Wednesday afternoon, team officials were mum on what happened before Sunday’s opener against the Jets. Update: A Panthers spokesman said the goal is to have the “Keep Pounding” chant evolve to the point where fans don’t need any prompting to start it. The team plans to coordinate the chant for this week’s game against the Saints, but won’t necessarily do so for every home game.
  5. Do you ever tire of being snarky? Just curious. The thread is not about whether or not the fans can cheer/chant. The thread was about the owner consciously taking it out of the program.
  6. And now "you people" have no reading comprehension? And you are blaming a message board because you don't know how to read or think? sheez Lots of tweets on this, more coming in. Increasingly I think Tepper kaboshed (or ok'd the kabosh) of the pre-game #keeppounding to make time for his new mixed reality toy. The same stadium gameday management that screwed up all the other documented issues (lines, beer, intro's, etc.) mistakenly took the chant out of the whole gameday planning in it's entirety. This is giving Tepper some credit but I could see it going down that way. Will know Sunday.
  7. True, in theory. In practice the NFL home gameday experience for stadium fans and the interaction with TV production is tightly micro-managed. Those chants may or may not start on their own but without the timing and assistance of the stadium crew it will be increasingly difficult.
  8. Was not at game but heard all the rumblings about #keeppounding not being a part of the festivities. But it is a pretty big deal if and why the chant was excluded. The fact that official Roaring Riot twitter goes directly to David Tepper says there is a lot more to this than currently being discussed
  9. @RoaringRiottweets open letter to Tepper about keeping chant. What is going on? Did Tepper actually axe it? Or was it left out to put in the cartoon panther? Or was it the result of just overall poor management of the game day experience for fans? #wedemandanswers What does RR know that the huddle does not??
  10. Can we tap in to Baldy Breakdowns during halftime to prep for adjustments?
  11. Don't do it on my account. But you should do it for consistency. You should know by now as a mod there are no guarantees about complaints. This is why you guys are paid the big bucks.
  12. well and good. lots of stuff gets talked about in main forum where "every source agrees it's not happening". But NAS post didn't even get moved for that take, just got moved because some people get triggered by the greatest franchise QB we have ever had. I will continue to monitor the Lounge so I will get updated on Cam's retirement party.
  13. I guess I don't spend every waking moment on this board to the point where posts about one of our greatest players ever trigger some people. Bad look on your part and everyone else trying to hide the fact Cam is part of our history if not our future. And being scared of reading takes on Cam on a Panther message board is damn pathetic.
  14. PJ and random PS guy when we are 4-0 with a hot start will get the phones going. Whether a deal gets done is debatable but Cam will be relevant all season once a qb goes down. Right now Cam is the best FA QB on the market and I have no idea why I am telling this to the Huddle Lounge.
  15. What the hell? Now we start moving posts?
  16. Injuries to any starter will make Cam relevant again. Including to our guy.
  17. Surprised/not surprised to see who picked the jets
  18. Gotta go with fewer road fave's than usual in week one. But I got a "D" in my fantasy draft from Yahoo so who knows? Best guesses below; Dallas Cowboys @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers W Philadelphia Eagles @ Atlanta Falcons W Pittsburgh Steelers @ Buffalo Bills W W Minnesota Vikings @ Cincinnati Bengals W San Francisco 49ers @ Detroit Lions Arizona Cardinals @ Tennessee Titans W Seattle Seahawks @ Indianapolis Colts W W Los Angeles Chargers @ Washington Football Team New York Jets @ Carolina Panthers W W Jacksonville Jaguars @ Houston Texans Cleveland Browns @ Kansas City Chiefs W W Miami Dolphins @ New England Green Bay Packers @ New Orleans Saints W Denver Bronco's @ New York Giants W Chicago Bears @ Los Angeles Rams W W Baltimore Ravens @ Las Vegas Raiders
  19. 50+ years has taught me that the one thing steeler fans, Green Bay fans, patriot fans and other Super Bowl winning franchises, especially Tampa, have in common is that their teams all sucked balls at one time. Sometimes for years or decades. Those fans didn’t make plays or roster decisions. They didn’t have a damn thing to do with either success or failure. But they did the one thing they could, they stayed fans. Watching our fans stay in the rain as we got clobbered at the end of our 1-15 season was “almost” as cool as marching to Jax stadium on opening day with the Roaring Riot and hundreds of other memories. Winning is sweet, but making memories is sweeter. Keep Pounding.
  20. Seems fair? What? … that we could suck or we could contend? We have our own Mr Scott to point out it could go either way, why pay a subscription fee? ( love me some Mr Scott though)
