Can Pep Ever Come Home Again?

[CatMan72]

He could, but I doubt the FO would want him back... he burned some pretty big bridges here.

We let him walk and didn't even call to let him know as would be customary for a player of his stature... that says a lot about how the FO felt about Peppers.

He got the cold shoulder from us for a reason, it's the business way of saying F*CK YOU.

I dunno I have mixed feelings.. I usually don't take well to people who give you the bird.

[CBDellinger]

Who cares?

you fail at the nfl if you turn down talent like that for personal reasons.

[Crayfish McCorduroy]

The easy answer is no, cause we're (myself included) all mad cause he left on bad terms. But when it comes down to it, good teams are mostly interested in adding talent over holding grudges. It's not like it would be the most surprising signing ever.

That said, he's a bitch.

[Jangler]

I asked the question the other day, I wonder if Pep wishes he had waited for Fox to leave?

Pep was my favorite player when he was here... the way he left gave me a sour taste. I can understand wanting to win, but the way he did it wasn't cool.

If he came back he would be a Panther and I would root for him, and I doubt the organization would look at it the way the fans do... so I assume it could be possible.

He has talent when he wants. The other 75% of the time he is chillin

We let Moose come back when we couldn't buy a receiver. Moose had good #'s and retired a Panther. Who knows, with a good QB we might have got another year or two out of him, he was still in good shape.

I know what you're sayin' but #90 is still one of the best Panthers ever. I don't know if I could deny him the right to retire a Carolina Panther if he ever desired to. The guy is still a beast and doesn't get hurt,unlike #76 sadly.

What if he was in good shape and out of his contract in 2 or so years? Absolutely not!? Reggie White was highly recruited when we got him. #90 is the same type of player and doesn't have a history of injury.

I ask the question from more of a fantasy point of view since we all know everyone is happy. History does repeat itself sometimes though, look at our former #46 and our our former #87, MJ and Kwame it does happen.

I was pissed as fug when Moose left too

and he's still the best defensive lineman this team has ever had...

I never said he wasn't. Like I said, when he is on, he's good. When he is lazy, its just pathetic.

I'm looking forward to what Charles Johnson can do for us in the future.

I rather him not, I'm sure he would not be accepted anymore by the majority of Panther fans.
