Whats up with all the fairweather fans?!??


Recommended Posts

I read this board daily and have so for the past 5-6 years. Rarely do I speak up or comment but its funny how many people on this board are freaking out like were not living up to the hype. I am personally extremely excited with our team and how we have been playing. Yes we have lost some very close games and thats frustrating, but this is the youngest team in the NFL playing arguably the hardest schedule. At least were not Philly, hyped to be the "dream team" and shoe in's for SB title, and 1-3.

There were no expectations, yet we have blown everyones mind and gained HUGE amounts of exposure for Cam and this teams performance. It is a new, exciting era!

1. Rookie QB

2. Rookie Coach

3. New Scheme

4. VERY SHORT OFFSEASON

All this yet we are 1-3 and had a chance to be 4-0. Be excited! Under the old regime every game would have been a blow out and horrible to watch.

This is fun, exciting, Carolina Panther football! The future is bright!

I agree. After every loss people are looking for a scapegoat. Do I think Naanee should be replaced? Yes. Was the field goal coming up a yard short a hard pill to swallow? Of course. But are they the only reasons Carolina lost yesterday? No. I'm still excited for next week because this team can beat any team they play this year.

those w/unreasonable expectations tend to be the first to jump ship

edit: don't like being 1-3, but i can swallow it b/c they are pretty clearly sacrificing short term equity in order to expedite/address newton's development. the fact that we can do this and still have a legitimate chance to win games is great.

I have yet to see a fairweather fan on this board. I have seen people who are man enough to admit that the excuses you listed aren't valid.

According to the posts after the last game, Naanee should be cut, Otah should be cut, McDermott should be fired, Cam should be suspended. The list goes on and on. It just shows that most of the posters on this forum are pretty clueless as to how to run a NFL team. There's nothing wrong with being upset, but at least don't make yourself look like you don't have any intelligence.

lol. Look at all these new people accusing others of being "fairweather" fans.

All these people you're branding "fairweather", 46&2, Happy Panther, myself, were here every day last season. All year. They were here every day this offseason. None of you clowns even got on board until the team got "exciting" enough for you. You needed a superstar to even need a reason to really want to talk Panthers football.

Fairweather is laughable. I'd say worse, but I don't want to be banned when Hot On The Huddle shows up on the forums tonight, so I'll leave it at that. Unbelievable how stupid that is.

yes it's mcdermott's fault that most of what little talent we had on defense went down w/injuries. too much emphasis is being placed on the flaws in the scheme; there is no scheme that does not have holes. we are playing 2nd and 3rd stringers out there

I'd like for you to direct me to these posts. Obviously everyone is in unison that Naanee isn't very good, but I'd like for you to show me the other ones. Please.

Don't worry OP, the dumbasses are usually the loudest, you'll soon begin to realize who are actual rational fans. Just because a few saps feel like bitching and moaning in every thread and preaching how their almighty manly fandom doesn't accept losing all while completely disregarding all enormous strides this team has made, doesn't mean that all fans are dimwitted dippoos.
