so what did the last ~20 years of panthers football feel like to you

asking because for me it felt like being on a trireme led by a captain that embarks on a voyage that should take only 3 years to reach its destination, and ends up dicking around so much that by the time you dock at ithaca, the steamships are already dominating the mediterranean sea.

we sat through a 20 year period of the same dude running the offseason the same way for about 15 of those years, coaches that overstay their welcome, players that stick like glue, some of them so bad that being a starter for ten games feels like ages. and it makes me think about the passage of time compared with everything else going on. sometimes i have to remind myself that some 2012 panthers bullshit was 9ish years ago and not 3. things i had going on back then were so much different.

i know we’re just finally going beyond jerry richardson’s reign of terror and all of the baggage is finally gone but ffs...

Curious how you changed your behavior and support (or lack thereof) over those 20 years?

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
