An Impending Breakup with the Carolina Panthers

Recommended Posts

To my (barely) beloved Carolina Panthers, I need to notify you of something: this relationship is on a downward spiral, and it is fading fast.

 You and I, we've been enamored with each other for over twenty years. I barely knew you as an 11 year old boy living in western North Carolina when in late October of 1993 your arrival was announced. I didn't know you well at all, but I didn't need to. You were going to be a pro football team playing just over an hour away from my house. No longer did I have to muster lukewarm cheers for a hit-and-miss Atlanta Falcons team. In your Zubaz pants font trimmed in blue and silver, the Carolina Panthers became my new love.

 Mind you, there were others before you. Ones that have stuck with me longer and have loved me deeper. Clemson football I was born into. Even as a kid scraping my knee produced drops of orange, not red blood. Atlanta Braves baseball, from the Worst to First 90's until this year's frustrating underachievement, nothing would remove my love for the Bravos, and should the good Lord ever bless me with a son, I'll fight with my wife to call him Henry Aaron Becker or at least Chipper. My rocky relationship with the Charlotte Hornets then Bobcats then Hornets has been up and down to say the least, so Panthers, consider yourself my fourth love.

 Our first few years together, you pulled out all the stops. You made a magical run in just your second season to make it to the NFC title game. You boasted greats like Kevin Greene and Sam Mills on defense, Your offense was led by a quarterback that looked like an apathetic frat boy, but he made enough plays to win games, so we appreciated Kerry Collins. Our coach's name was Dom, and the man running the team was Bill Polian, just a few years before he drafted Peyton Manning for the Colts.

Good read if you're a lifelong Panthers fan.  Read the rest at the link below.  How many of you feel this way right now?

Pfft..To summarize:

 

I was a fan for a long time. I felt like the team would be good but we suck.  I am emotional but don't want to sound like I am whining so I pull all of these old facts and name drop like it no tomorrow to show that I am a "true" fan. 

 

Now we suck, I am still butt hurt because I can't wear my Steve Smith Jersey until he officially retires a Panther.  I am feeling especially bad because since we went 2-0 I started trash talking like we won the Superbowl , now I am embarrassed.  I really want to root for a winner so unless the Panthers start winning them I am officially a Bronco/Green Bay/Whomever is winning fan.
