Why Our Team Sucks - Deadspin Article

HA. Sure.

I can assure you that outside the NFC South areas, people usually can't tell the difference between us an the Jaguars.

You can't assure me anything since you don't live outside that area.

I do live outside of the NFC south area and they can. Constantly having to defend dumb hate coming from cowboy redskin eagle raven steeler and giant fans.

Sad, but true. When I went to New Orleans a few years ago for the saints-panthers game, I had quite a few people approach me at the bars and say the saints were going to kick the jaguars ass tomorrow (I was wearing my Panthers jersey). And that's a team from our own division.

And also New Orleans, where most of their fans think they won the Super Bowl because Drew Brees had an "interception touchdown".

I'll be taking that, thanks.

Haha - I actually wrote that one. Permission to steal, though;.

hard to do really.  we've been to a super bowl and our colors don't suck balls.

considering the fanbases you listed, dumb hate isn't surprising, and it's really a redundant term.

I know it's supposed to be funny, but I'm not a fan of stuff like that.

I can't be the only one disappointed that they didn't resurrect the "Horseballs" Anderson nickname from last year.

Also, which one of you was the guy in the email section who referenced the GOAT Uni vote?

That's exactly what I was thinking too.

I thought this was funny

3. The fuging YINZ ARN CITY BEER BIG BENZ DA MAN YINZ YINZ Pittsburgh diaspora, which fled the Midwestern Rust Belt Dumpster Fire for shitty banking jobs in Charlotte. These are the sort of people who blame unions for making them leave their homes and then vote for chucklefugs like Pat McCrory because they're hard workin Americans.

What kind of morons do you associate with? Seriously? I travel a bit and have never once had anyone confuse such a thing.

[DaCityKats]

Yea, I've been stationed or otherwise lived all over the country from NC to Cali to Hawaii, from Texas to Illinois.  I have had to go to sports bars to watch the Panthers since the turn of the century.  I've never witnessed NFL fans not being able to recognize or differentiate one team from another.  When I was in Hawaii, there was even another Panther fan at the bar I watched games at, and she was from Cali.   Hell, my Panthers jersey was recognized out here in Australia once...I was walking downtown in my blue Smitty jersey and some random Australian dude passes me and hollers "yea Panthers!" as I walk by.  So if anyone has actually seen someone not be able to tell the Panthers from the Jags, that person is just the most ignorant "fan" in the world.

And I read all the "Why you team sucks" articles, they were all equally brilliant.  One of my favorites lines came from the Colts readers section, I paraphrase: "When Denver wins the Super Bowl this year and John Elways says "This one's for Peyton!" I will want to drink all the antifreeze."
