As most of you are aware, at the end of last season, Fox Carolina began to play Falcon games instead of Panthers games. I recently sent the GM of Fox Carolina an e-mail asking if this will continue through this season and here is the respond I received:

During the season we had heard from a number of Falcon fans asking us to carry an Atlanta game. At that point, the Panthers were near the end of a marginal season to say the least, so we asked FOX to change the game one Sunday from the Panthers to the Falcons. The phones rang off the hook from a large number of loyal Panther fans. We won’t be repeating that again this year. We tried something and learned a lesson. Regardless of the win/loss record, this is truly Panther country.

Thanks for asking.

So to summarize, there WILL be Panther games playing next season despite what the record is.

They are full of it. Same thing happened in the eastern part of SC last year and Fox showed the Bears game instead of the Panthers. I and apparently a lot of people were blowing up the phone and email. I got a similar response from the Director of Marketing and he promised to not make that "mistake" again. However, the following week they did the same thing.

They will put whatever games on TV that get the best ratings. Historically that has been Panther games and I can't imagine that changing this year; especially if Cam plays. I am getting Directv just in case.

      By rayzor · Posted

      yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
