It has come to this...

I can't believe I am saying this, but....

the only way to get upper management to take hold of this situation and give the fans our due respect is for the fans to stop attending the games. The company line is that "this is not a rebuilding year" when it clearly is. The product on the field is not worth what the average fan is paying for. As Richardson seems to have chosen his path, I think it is time that the fans make their collective voices be heard as well.

When they're left wondering what happened, the collective response can be, "It's just business. It is what it is."

If they came out and said it was a rebuilding year, would you go then?

[jamos14]

I would feel like at least they have a direction. Right now that direction is anywhere but up

It's pretty clear that words mean nothing at this point

I think Richardson's words mean as much to us as empty seats do to him.

He got yo money. somebody will sell the tickets and someody else will buy the tickets and buy the beer and the hot dogs...and JR gets paid....

This.

Fatman is still gonna get his, with or without us.

Most of the tickets are prepaid for the year

So because we're not going to the playoffs you think everyone should boycott the games? What a shitty fan base.

I am personally at the point for treating the team ownership like they treat the fans... contempt

Concessions and blackouts can hurt the franchise big time. The NFL takes notice of empty seats on TV.

I really don't see your point. The NFL isn't going to strong arm Richardson into throwing money at crappy free agents. All boycotting the games would do is hasten the franchise moving away from Charlotte.

If that is the only leverage left to the fans, then so be it. It is what it is

You don't have to go to the games but you can still support the team... some guys act like the team/JR has robbed them of their life earnings or something.

Oh yeah, that's smart; let's boycott the franchise and screw ourselves over when the team gets moved because of one year that the owner decides to make business moves (if that was his real intention).
