Embarrassing thread. People are going off on this woman's looks and calling her a bitch for....one lone tweet about not liking Panthers Spirit Day. 

 

Shame on all of you. A throwaway tweet by someone I've never heard of brings the GamerGate out in you guys? Step away from the computer.

GamerGate is a great mention.

Emily looks and talks like the perfect example of the feminist and social justice warrior who lives in a Permanent State of Offense and will destroy bystanders reputations and employment for no other reason than it advances her "cause".

I can see why she is a former Observer employee. Clearly she does not like this city. 

 

 

 

I was born and raised in Raleigh and went to college in Charlotte.  I totally disagree with her.  She seems like one of those 'grass is always greener anywhere but here' type of folks.

Instead of telling a child no you can't have that,  parents like Emily don't want to be put in that situation. If she isn't a Charlotte fan I doubt she is a Panther fan.  So it must be the school's fault for promoting support for the local team Because it encourages school spirit and your kids don't have any panther jerseys because you don't like the team.  Too bad. My kids would have no problem wearing their jerseys to school. They wear them to the games.

Seems like a consistent complainer. Sometimes there are things that need to be addressed and just because there are people who agree with you doesn't make you right. I'm not a parent, but I will tell you that I intend to choose the crosses that I choose to bear carefully. Kids need positivity. Not sugar-coated, but they need to be shown how to look at a situation in the real world and find the good that can be gleaned from it. Yeah, the NFL is a money-grab for a bunch of billionaires...yep. Absolutely. BUT this team is comprised of players from all walks of life, working together to attain a goal. Forget the logos, or the jerseys, that applies ANYWHERE. She missed an opportunity to impart some life lessons on her children. That's sad. She missed an opportunity to rebel and spend time with her children making Panthers or any shirts showing them that you don't always have to follow the crowd and fostering creativity. She missed it.  My hunch, she'll continue to miss it. She's too concerned with other people.

Don't click on any of her articles. This seems to mostly be an attention grab.

 

Going on about how awful it is to spend money on Panthers shirts. Then in the next tweet berating NC folks who haven't been trekking though the cities of Europe and Asia and think the buildings in Charlotte look nice. Piece of work.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of immature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.

      I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
