Have You Ever Taken a Hiatus from This Team?

The Redzone Channel and Scott Hanson have made it salvageable.  I usually do the quad screen with the volume on the panthers game until it gets out of hand then switch to the redzone channel fully when it’s out of control.

I mean I'm out of market and don't have Red Zone this year (thank god). You could say I've been on hiatus for years now, but they're still my team and I'll check in. But there is zero chance I'll tune into every single game like I used to when I was younger with more free time. If I'm that interested then I'll sail the high season the internet to watch them which is easy enough. But I'll never truly drop them I don't think.

I wouldn't blame anyone for just giving up. Tepper has earned scorn ridicule disdain and then some. He does not deserve people giving his franchise money honestly.

For me I just keep up with the team loosely and remain a fan but laugh at their horrendous embarrassments and keep it pushing. I'm not jumping ship to some other team or walking around here wearing contending teams jerseys. If people want to that's their prerogative but that's not me.

From here I'm just going to see how the Hornets do. They were the first sports team I ever rooted for and the first I ever saw in person. At this point I have significantly more hope for that franchise turning things around to any degree than I do the Panthers.

As long as douchbag tepper owns the team, I'm not supporting it anymore. He's literally the worst owner and its not even close. He has no clue on what it takes to run a succesufl franchise. He's only in it for the profit that he can make off the city of Charlotte. I'm now a players fan. So, I've been taking a hiatus since week 2 this year after crawling back from last year to check out the new *insertquantity* year rental we have for a coach until Tepper decides to fire him too.

I've been a Panthers fan since Day 1. I was working a shift at Food Lion during the Hall of Fame Game in 1995 between the Panthers and Jaguars. I remember checking with customers that came into the store asking if they knew the score. I've followed them ever since. However, times may be changing.

My son and I went to the game yesterday. Being a Bama grad myself, and with him being a Bama fan, we were joking towards the end of the game about stopping by the Team Store and buying Brian Robinson jerseys. We both loved him at Bama, and with the way the Panthers have played over the past few years, I could see us both turning into fans of individual players rather fans of any particular team.

I say that somewhat in jest, but man, it is hard to pull for the Panthers under Tepper.

    • I agree with this, Frank just looked defeated by week like 6. His heart wasn't in it anymore, it never really was for Bryce. When things went south I think he just kept thinking: I didn't even really want this but I'll stick to the company line because I'm a professional.  I *really* hope Reich comes out one day and says what happens but he strikes me as someone who has a lot of pride and doesn't want to throw Fitterer under the bus too. 
    • We ARE in a rebuild and have been since the end of last season. The hope for a relatively quick turnaround was that Bryce might turn it around and become the guy. It doesn't look like that's happening, so we're basically back to square one. However, we have FINALLY fixed the OL and have a great young RB about to debut for us. We also have promising options in the passing game for the first time in years in XL and Sanders. Defense is a mess, but that's how it goes and a good chunk of that is also injury related. People want to bitch and complain and say we should be rebuilding. Well, THIS is what a rebuild looks like. It's just that we haven't fully committed to it until now when it should have been the plan back in 2019 instead of trying to "soft" reboot the franchise. Rebuilding teams get blown out; it happens all the time. We have to start focusing on the silver linings, of which there are quite a few:  - The OL is, at long last, fixed.  - That includes Brady Christensen, who now looks like our long-term answer at center.  - It also includes Ickey, who is finally playing consistently good football.  - Both the FA guards we signed are playing their asses off.  - Jaycee Horn is finally healthy.  - Chuba Hubbard has emerged as one of the better RBs in the NFL.  - Jalen Coker looks like a keeper on offense.  - Trevin Wallace looks like a keeper on defense.  - Jonathon Brooks is about to debut.  - J.T. Sanders is improving each week and is coming off his best game.  - XL looks like a future stud. There are positives, but it's going to be an up and down process. Some weeks we'll look good (Raiders), others we'll look OK (Falcons), and others we'll get our doors blown off (Commanders). That's what a rebuilding football teams looks like.
    • agreed but their defense (also decimated by injuries) is better than our defense. I think they sneak one or two more out again some bad division opponents
