Like my favorite tidbit of knowledge about how big a deal the hornets were prior to the panthers is that the strip club on Tyvola on the way to the coliseum was like the fifth most profitable strip club on the east coast. I can't remember the exact number but it was shocking how much money that place would make. 

The Men's Club?

Max Muhleman.  I got to spend an afternoon with him at his house installing a computer and he was a very interesting man to talk to. The response to the PSL concept made the awarding of the franchise a no risk decision for the NFL.

Max Muhleman = absolute marketing genius

Some people do not know mistakes from actual actions with indent.

Condolences to the victims of this mans actions that have to relive those memories today and to those in his family who have been hurt due to his actions. 

As far as football in the Carolinas, football wouldve gotten here eventually with or without you. You were just the first rich guy that was able to do it. You cared more about the league than the actual success of the team and allowed the decision makers to waste talent year after year. Good job.

You do not have to explain who or what you are because this post reveals it all.

Grace and forgiveness. I’ll extend it to JR, although most who extend it to Mr Richardson, won’t extend it to others. 
 

RIP JR. Thank you for bringing football to the Carolina’s, and although you hurt those who looked like me, you also put many on who look like me, and helped make them success stories. You did wrong, but it sounds like you spent the rest of your life trying to do right. 
 

RIP and God bless you and yours. May your fam find comfort and understanding

    • 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
