I’m at the midway point of my life (41) and it’s starting to sink that I may not see this team win a Super Bowl….

Am I and many of you about to be Browns/Bengals/Falcons/Lions fans who go their whole life without enjoying their team win it all

 

Compounding this is we’ve only had 7 ‘winning record’ seasons, that’s it.

 

When I was in my 20s it was always ‘next year’ now as I’ve aged on here with many of you it’s starting to feel ‘will we ever’

I was lucky enough to be a huge Skins fan during the Joe Gibbs era and see them win 2 rings. Those were some great teams and so much fun to watch. As for the Panthers, I think we’ve seen the best years in the rear view. As long as Tepp owns them there won’t be a Super Bowl.

This explains a lot.

I don’t think Tepper is worth a poo. I’m keeping my PSLs for two more seasons then I’m retiring from the Sunday tailgates and watching from home. I’ll still hit one road game a year, but the days of all the hard work, expense, and annoyance that goes into being a diehard tailgating fan are coming to an end. Tepper doesn’t deserve it.

I'm in this same boat. I'm going to have a very difficult time convincing my wife that we should keep our PSLs if all it results in is loss of money and me being pissed off or complacent 3-4 weeks in. We could definitely use the money elsewhere.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
