Panthers Twitter: Hall of Honor is expanding

[TN05]

Who’s the new class going to be? No clue. But good to see.

They we speculating on who it could be on the facebook post...  I'm sure Smitty and Pep are in there, but the guy he was talking to sounded like he had a bit of a a southern drawl and only guy I could possibly think of was Hoover.

Southern drawl? That was a deep-ass voice...had to be Peppers.

Well, maybe I misheard lol.  You're prolly right but i didnt think they'd post the video of the most obvious.

I think it will be Smithy, Kasey, Pep, and Gross

[CRA]

That voice had to be Pep. 

Stewart in his retirement speech alludes to 89 being involved in something awesome coming up. 

So I think those 2 are easy calls.  They also are the 2 most likely actual HOFers.  

So I think the expansion is just those 2.   Anyone else added then starts a debate with so many more folks IMO.  So if you argue a Kasay or Gross or whoever too many others can be brought up now and later that are or would be comparable.

The rage from some of our fans when 89 goes in will be music to my ears.

I wonder if they'll still do statues for everyone. I'd like plaques outside the stadium at the very least.

The first group should be Peppers and Smith with them both getting statues and their numbers retired.

After that they should honor Delhomme, Gross, Kalil, Rucker, Minter, and Muhammad. No jersey retirement or statue.

They should also consider Stewart, Walls, Greene, Bates, Kasay, and Charles Johnson.

Keep retired numbers and statues a small group. Future HOFers (Peppers, Smith, Cam, and Luke) and people who define Keep Pounding (Mills and Davis).

[Carl Spackler]

Weinke, Chris Terry and Everette Brown are my guesses

Never will understand this.  Man played like a HOF’er his whole time here, has a disagreement with former ownership and leaves.  Glad he’s back in good favor.

That's way too many people. I get where you're coming from, but we can't add everyone to the hall of honor. 

Honest question, how many people do other teams have in their hall...especially the ones that have been around a lot longer than the Panthers have?

No statues. The only other player I would consider getting a statue would be TD due to his very embodiment of Sam Mill's message to Keep Pounding.

c'mon... you know Smitty was all about that Keep Pounding. Dude was the the most motivated person we ever had on the field, and he came back from pretty bad injuries too.

First ballot HOF. He deserves a statue, and so does Pep.

TD doesn't deserve a statue, and never will. Hall of Honor? Sure. When he retires.
