im more anit richardson then anyone in this organization. what he is doing is absolutly pathetic putting the nfl over panthers. everyone who wants to stick up for him and say he is a business man well fu ck that. im sure the steinbreners were business men as well and imagine if george put the MLB over the yankees, yeah it would never happen. This is also coming from a mets fan. he promised us a super bowl within 10 years, i know your getting old jerry but its been past ten years and you failed with your promise. you failed and you still have the audacity to go cheap, get out of here. this team isnt mediocre because we have a mediocre coach or a mediocre QB like everyone claims, but instead we have a mediocre owner.

1. PSL owners have purchased all but approximately 3000 seats per game- that's where the organization wants to keep it.

2. Those 3000 or so seats are the ones that go on sale to the public in July/August.

3. If the game is not sold out it is because those 3000 or so general public available tickets have not been sold since they went on sale weeks ago.

That being said, I still have 4 seats together for the 6 home games that were already paid for by the PSL owner. They have been purchased by the PSL owner, but they will be empty Sunday because he has normally sold these to a couple of long-time friends who will no longer attend and I have not been able to move them at all for face value.

So, it's not just the 900 that have not been sold, but it's also all the PSL already paid for seats that will also be empty come Sunday. When that happens it look horrible on TV because it's technically sold out even though only 45,000 went through the turnstiles. That's why the NFL uses ticket sales in figuring attendance, not actual butts in seats numbers.

that sounds like jobs created or saved...

You guys won't be blacked out as we were on opening day. :o

With only 900 left, either they will be sold by Thursday 1pm or the owner has a loophole in the rule to buy them himself at around 1/3 value (the visiting team's gate receipt share) to lift the blackout.

Can't imagine he wouldn't do that unless he's a lousy business guy.

Man, isn't it amazing how much the Huddle has changed in its feelings towards the owner? Just a couple of years ago, if you said the slightest negative thing about Jerry Richardson, you were slammed beyond belief by scores of Huddler white knights. Now the tide has finally turned against, not just the front office guys like Fox/Hurney, but even Richardson himself to the point where that whiteknightism is almost gone completely.

This is the first year there's reason for the hate.

Panther Nation cried out for a WR to be drafted that would make an impact.. so far that has not panned out for us. Panther Nation cried to pick up some of the Firesale WR's to bolster our corps.. Didn't happen. It sucked and we haven't forgot.

Now, Jerry is crying out for Panther Nation to buy his tickets, but we haven't forgot what he hasn't done for us. I'm not going to a game this year and if there are blackouts, so be it. You reap what you sow and so far, Jerry is sowing duds.

This makes you happy?

So what's new? When someone says they love the owner losing money, or fans having to miss out on a televised edition, you have to wonder. There is a pattern of owner bashing here, what it is about confuses me as much as I seem to confuse JR haters...how can anyone want the guy to succeed is the mantra for some fans, and I simply don't like it or get the reasoning.

I wish one JR basher could name me a suitable owner who they are willing to bet their PSL's can get us a quick SB ring.

Other than the fact he is stunting the Panthers back years by putting the NFL first in the upcoming CBA's?
