Are you a real Carolina fan, or a 2016 Carolina fan?

That was just the question asked to me by a co-worker just now.

I guess he hadn't ever noticed the Growl Towel hanging up on my desk until today and he said, "oh, I didn't know you're a Carolina fan.  But are you a real Carolina fan or a 2016 Carolina fan?"

Found it pretty funny, but told him the story about why I'm a fan and he laughed and said, "yep, I guess a real Carolina fan"

My dad took me to the HOF the year before the Panthers first season, I was a kid at the time (about 8) and loved the logo and colors, so he bought me a mini helmet and I followed the team that first year the best an 9 year old could do without today's internet abilities.

Then going into the second season we drafted my all time favorite player (from Michigan and grew up a die hard Michigan football fan) in Biakabutuka with the first round pick, and I was hooked ever since.

I even showed him the sticker on the mini-helmet on my desk that has a 1995 copyright sticker on it, been around since the beginning!!

Keep Pounding!!!!  Can't wait for Sunday!!!!

I had such high hopes for Randy Fasani...

Love how fitting it is in our sig, that a SB win would put us over .500.

Usually it's bandwagon fans who even ask that in the first place....trying to hide their own bandwagon hopping selves.

Seattle fan was saying something like that to me but the lad couldn't identify Shaun Alexander so yea....we all know what's what.

Post count doesn't mean that much .. Some of us have followed back in the Kevin Greene and Julius Pepper years but only became a part of the huddle recently.  I stumbled across the site and rarely even look at anything else.

 

But then again 14k post .. means you have a lot more time on your hands than some also.

    • I like that a lot; Ware from Troy and also Khalil Mack who played at University of Buffalo
    • I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛
    • bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
