Doesn't it suck..

[PanthaSan]

I'm watching every game as if it's a preseason game. The outcome ultimately won't matter, but it's fun to see some of these young guys play.

And you know what? I'm okay with that.

I've kind of taken that approach, but I still can't stop myself from getting pissed off and angry when we don't even make it close. It's hard to detach myself from the outcome emotionally even though I've already accepted it.

I can see the logic and heartache in both of those approaches. We are young and I should've seen this happening but I am not any less of a Panther Fan and in no way giving up. I will just watch every game and root and hope as I always do.

It can get frustrating, tho....

You better hope there's no lockout. Then we get to wait til 2012...to see these young guys pretty much start from scratch.

[PanthersPhan18]

I just still would like my team to be competitive thats all. Oh well......

No worries, 3 weeks from now Jimmy will show a lot more poise.

You best agree with me on this one Salty....

Yep, and I'll always hold out a little hope for a win. I've just come to realize this isn't our year. I do expect us to get better as the season moves on. It'll be fun watching this team tear it up when we've no longer got a shot at the playoffs.

isn't 3 weeks from now the bye week?

[j2sgam]

0-3 is a damn sure, f__ked up way to start a 10-6 season...

On the brighter side. Now that I basically have no expectations at all for this team, I may live a few more years since I won't be screaming at the TV every Sunday when we are actually close to winning and Davidson calls for a draw on 3rd and 56.

I watch the game hoping for a win, but I won't be mad if we don't.

I'm gonna kill you.

At least we should go a week without a loss soon

[Kettle]

Bad or not, at least I still get to see the young guys develop.

i'll echo these posts

he looked better from the first to the second half

I didn't expect playoffs this year. Maybe 7-9 season and I would have been ok with it because the team is young.

But, this team is an embarrassment. I just want little more offense, some Smitty TDs, 100 yard rushing, some heart.. and if we lose by giving it all then I'm ok with that.

[Delhommey]

I'm excited to watch the young players develop.

Can't wait until offseason

Well, if no CBA is in place by March 1st, there will be no substantial free agency worth following. Oh, and no 2nd round pick in the draft.

Then there is a decent chance there will be no TC, preseason and a shortened regular season next year.

As bad as it is, better enjoy what you have now.
