Want To Discuss Our Charlotte Franchise?

Recommended Posts

In peace? Without falling victim to trolling?

I wouldn't post this if it wasn't necessary. If you want to talk Panthers, this site is the place to be. If you want to talk Bobcats... ehh, not so much. Any conversation to be had about our team has now devolved to "this is a REAL topic!" or "this happened b/c _____ is racist."

Whether it is sincere or sarcastic, I came to talk about my team and that is no longer possible here thanks to the retarded garbage that a select few have interjected, insinuated, or encouraged into every conversation. I'm sick of it. Race shouldn't even be a point of discussion in 99% of the subjects on this board. We're here to talk about our team.

This isn't 1940 or even 1964... We are decades past that. Yes, racism is very much alive and well and you have likely even read me speculating that it has played into some people's opinions in sports related subjects that have been discussed here in the past (Cam, Michael Vick, etc.).

But, I have not seen anything race-related relevant to our current situation with the Bobcats (or possible Hornets).

So, that being said...

For any true Charlotte Bobcats (or possible Charlotte Hornets) fans that want to talk about our team without being insulted, lambasted, or having your threads derailed and/or locked, feel free to go over to Bobcatsplanet.com.

It's clear the mods here at the huddle aren't interested in this Bobcats forum and I've basically been told it's a joke of a forum to them by one tenured mod, so they pretty much let things go unchecked here.

There are so many awesome forums on this board, and as a long-time member, I enjoy most of them... But, this one isn't useful anymore as it has devolved into garbage and rhetorical conjecture from the "mod" who then locks threads after he takes weeks of his time to derail them.

BTW, not that it should matter, but to show how irrational and warped this Bobcats subforum is, the founder and mod over Bobcatsplanet (Ziggy) is not white and allows any and all discussion relevant to our franchise. Yet, amazingly, hardly any discussion of race ever pop up, nor do rebrand threads get locked.

If you care about our franchise and have a legit discussion to be had, you can do it there without being insulted. Sure, a certain someone you know might come through and spew some "The Hornets are in New Orleans" crap, but shockingly, they don't scream racism nearly as much over there... I guess because they can't control threads there and may get banned for idiocy.

I tried to bear with it and use this forum as I spend enough time here in the Panthers section, so it's easier to discuss both of our teams here. But, no longer for obvious reasons. So, again, if you want to discuss basketball without idiots irresponsibly bringing race into the equation (because that REALLY shouldn't factor into anyone's thinking if you were born in the last 35 years or so) or locking threads because they are insecure...

GO TO BOBCATSPLANET.COM FOR ALL DISCUSSION FOR YOUR CHARLOTTE BOBCATS/POSSIBLE HORNETS. (No trolling)

That is all.

What;s the activity level like over there? I have been coming here for all of my posting needs, as I prefer just 1 site, but you are right about what this forum has become for Charlotte Basketball from both sides... I will look into it... thanks

Probably more active, TBH. They often have threads/news over there that either is posted well before it makes it on the forum here or never makes it up on this forum at all. Really good site and Ziggy is awesome. They actually have a chat room over there for games, the draft, etc. as well.

Where do I go if I want to express my never ending hatred and disdain for Bob Johnson? Thats a fire in me that'll never be extinguished and I want to encourage others to feel the same. Where do I go proudiddy? Where can I go to let Bobcat fans know they aint shyt and that Hornet fans are more desirable? Please tell me Diddy.

Ziggy's got a great site over there at BOBCATSplanet.com. Id hate to see a couple entitled Hornets fans go over there ruining it. Why yall still leeching off us? We're tainted remember?

You guys should go there. Its plenty of Hornet fans, stories about Hugo, and a lot of purple and teal. You guys shouldnt be saddled with the burden of pretending to care about the Bobs. Go and be with the other passionate Hornet fans. Convince them to come back home!

Bobcats are still here cornhusker. And we're still here talkin bout Bob. Its the Hornets who failed in Charlotte. The Hive is no more.

No KT.....YOU are still here talking about Bob.

The rest of us were happy to see that complete failure of an owner leave town....just like we were happy to see Shinn's sorry ass leave town.

    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
    • Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.
