An Impending Breakup with the Carolina Panthers

[ThPantherFan]

If I'm being honest, a whole lot of what that guy writes just sounds kinda whiny and silly.

 

Why did you read it?

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?

I agree w/everything except the giving up as a fan!After 13 months I'll be ready to see Gettleman and most of the staff,FO,etc,FIRED,if they don't turn it around but I'll still be a fan!

I quit reading after beloved

I can understand getting down and maybe not having the same pain during certain seasons but I will never respect someone that is willing to switch allegiances and would be happier if he and those of his ilk did leave.

The day I stop watching the Panthers is the day I stop watching the NFL.

I doubt they are up to his standards either, he clearly is not a fan of adversity.
