Could you imagine the excitement if we beat the Cowboys? All 50 to 60 Panther fans left storming the field like in college when the #1 team goes down. 

Lol What??  there’s going to be up to maybe 60 of us there on Sunday 🥳🥳 … was thinking my son and I would be the only two  🙂

My son and I are still going because we just enjoy being at the stadium on game days.  We are going this Sunday with the attitude of being there to laugh at the spectacle it will be, be there for the sh*t show and yeah be at the stadium.  And hey.... maybe the Panthers will pull off a miracle 🤣

Always a good time bonding with your kids. My daughter isn't interested in football which, I have to say, is probably lucky for her. It's a tough slog sometimes lol

I went to 11 Bobcats games in 2011-12 when I lived close to the arena, because tickets were incredibly cheap and it was just a fun experience. We even won one of the games. But it requires the suspension of any expectation.

Haha I did the same! I had front row behind the basket for a game that year against the Raptors. From what I remember, they were pretty atrocious too and the arena was half-empty. Loved the leg room though.

Oh man it was fun. We got tickets 4 rows from center court once for $12 each and saw Deron Williams bang 57 and barely win. The compulsive gamblers behind us had everyone in stitches too. Good times.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      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.
