Panthers announce a lovely new team reporter

Meet Kristen Balboni, new Panthers team reporter

Sports broadcasting is an absolute dream job, but it also usually means you move a lot to chase those dreams.

Since graduating from UNC, I've lived in Connecticut (while working for ESPN), Los Angeles (as a host for FOX Sports) and Chicago (as a host and reporter for Stadium). But no matter where I was living and what I was doing, I've always been able to take one little piece of home with me – Panthers Sundays (or Mondays or Thursdays)

She was the one that just came on this past season right? Honestly, I just wish they'd find a pro from the area (even if they're a 'Skins or Steelers fan) just so we can pretend they actually root for the team.

She's getting married and moving to Indy with her Husband. (He is some sort of coach for the Colts if i'm not mistaken)

This girl went to UNC, kind of close to local.

She was from the area. In her intro piece she said she is from the Carolinas and her family still lives here. She went to USC and is also a Panthers fan.

Who, Caroline or the new one?

 

Edit: nevermind, just read the new one so I see you were talking about Caroline.

Yeah sorry Caroline. It's rare to have your reporter actually be a fan of the team.

Does she have pointy elbows?
