Official "Loving this Offseason" thread...

[The Saltman]

makes me think, if you pissed on yourself does that make you pissed?

its better to get pissed off then pissed on

[panthers55]

Until we see how this unfolds we don't know what the plan is at this point. Being happy is just as stupid as being pissed until we see who they replace our vets with. I can't say I have many strong feelings one way or the other yet. But it surely is a rebuilding year and anyone who thinks that we are better off so far is drinking something a lot stronger than koolaid. In the end this may work out or be a big disaster. We won't get our first glimpse until preseason really. We are definitely younger and less experienced. Anything else is pure speculation or wishful thinking.

24.5

We will see. I was guessing 22.

i am loving it too. This reminds me of 2003 when most of the guys on our team were young and unproven. Our team played with such fire that year it was awesome. That fire diminished in the years following but I think now is a perfect time to start young again.

And I still think we'll be extremely competitive and possibly have a chance to make the playoffs. Superbowl? Probably not but that's fine with me if we can put a playoff caliber team for the next several years.

Best offseason we have had in a long long time IMO I havnt been this excited about our team in quite some time!!

[cookinbrak]

Even if you hate the moves, you have to be somewhat interested to see how all of our young players do next year.

I have no idea how good we'll be next year, but I haven't been this excited since the 2003 season.

What happened in 2003 that was so great? Other than signing a big name free agent?

[SmootsDaddy89]

Believe what you want, but I honestly felt like something special was going to happen during training camp of that season.

[PantherDude]

I'm more on the "I like it". Right now, I'm kinda nervous about us getting too young. There nothing wrong with having a lot of young players, but it important to keep some vets that can still players. We don't want to be like Tampa Bay when they got too young & they were still sucking. :frown2:

[Metal_Sparty]

I'm in the bandwagon of "Nervously excited."

[Mr. Scot]

Little too early for me to say I "love" it, but I don't hate it, and I definitely don't see any reason to panic.

[Mr. Burgundy]

Dont like the hoove moove... no compition for Fiammetta who i dont really like in the first place

[AceMan]

We cut Delhomme...that makes this offseason good IMO. If we lose D-Will or Steve Smith...then...

[SorthNarolina]

I for one am loving it. Out with the old, in with the new. Tons of opportunity for younger guys now to step it up and become stars. This year the training camp will have more energy and focus because for the first time in a long time, there appears to be real open competition. All of our younger guys just called their trainers to get their asses in optimum shape early.

Lovin it.

For me it feels like JR is cleaning out all of the old so the new coach in 2011 will have an easier time bringing in his own guys.
