There are 2 types of people posting about how the Panthers are going to move: trolls and fuging idiots

[Sam Mills Fan]

Consider this is a PSA to the Huddle and all of Panther World: there is no chance of the Panthers moving. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Nul. Nula. The team has consistently been in the top half of the league in revenue, has sold out every game since 2002, has a built-in PSL machine working very well, a city with leaders that would rename the city's name to Panthers if it meant keeping the team here, Richardson won't sell to someone that wants to move the team, there's no logical place for the team to move to, the league would do everything in its power to keep the team here, a move would trigger a relocation fee of no less than $500 million for a new ownership team about to spend $2 billion to buy the team in the first place...WE ARE NOT MOVING. Stop engaging with people worried about it or suggesting it, there's literally a better chance of Mister deciding to cut Cam and Luke for some reason this week than the team ever moving.

We are not moving! Shut the bull crap. The NFL are not moving us. We are not a lauging stock. And Charlotte is one if not the fastest growing city in the country.

Amen, brothers!

Not to mention the cost of rebranding.  I think a lot of people fear this because many of us thought the hornets would never move for the same reasons.

Even if we were in some poo market like St. Louis or Buffalo the team wouldn't be in danger of moving anytime soon. I think the NFL has learned from the PR debacle that has been the Rams and Chargers.

The Charlotte Observer article about JR selling pretty much saying in it how easy it would be for a new owner to move the team certainly isn't helping things...

When will people learn that the Fake News Observer only serves to stir poo up? There is not a chance in hell this team moves.

I think most here know that but the average joe that reads it...

It was clickbait through and through. Ignore it.

Plus it’s a freshly renovated stadium at least another 10 years

But they were just talking about the tether that was agreed to between the city and team a few years ago.  Since it was designed to make it difficult for the team to move, they were making sure people understand that it will not be much of a factor for a new owner.  They weren't talking at all about anything else that would be involved with moving the team.  

However, I do agree that some people that only look at the surface and don't understand all that is involved with moving a team could read into it and make more out of it than there was.

Every team that has relocated has basically done it because of stadium issues. Eventually our owner, whoever that is, will say we need a new stadium. If Charlotte ponies up some decent public money then there is no chance the Panthers go anywhere. If Charlotte says f u you get nothing then you can't look at history and say there is no chance of moving. The NFL has been happy to vote yes to owners who want to move into a shiny new stadium without hesitation. We just saw it happen three times. That will not change.

Why are people saying Richardson would never sell to someone that would move the team?  I don't think he is in the best seat right now to get a say in who the team goes to.  I do agree that the team isn't going anywhere though.

There isn't a city in America more likely to do whatever an NFL owner tells them to do than Charlotte.
