Not me.

 

Nope, can't even watch the game on TV.  All because somebody (it couldn't have been me, no really it couldn't) decided to make non-refundable plans that night without even thinking about it being Super Bowl Sunday.

 

All we knew was "hey, it's like, every few Sundays in the winter - it will be fun!".  Signed up without thinking about the impact to the Panthers.

 

So I'll just ask you in advance -- if/when the Panthers make it to the Super Bowl, I'm going to be a few hours behind watching the game on the DVR later that night.  So please don't post anything about the game until after I'm done watching, mmmmkay?

 

TIA.

hmm............does stuff like this happened to you in the past???

 

Because you sir................... just gave us a SB win !!!!!

 

You know they are going to win now since you are screwed!

 

One more thing...........if you want to see a reply  without any prior knowledge of what happened.

 

I suggest hidden ear plugs.......eye blinders and a seeing eye dog if you go out that day.

Yeah, it's just the way the schedule worked out for this gathering. It's not like I said, "hey, let me plan something on Feb 2, weeeeeee!".   

 

And there's no way I can get out of it, regardless of who's playing in the SB.  dammitdammitdammit.    And the bitch of it is there's going to be some jag-bag who'll be checking their phone or something during the event and will proudly spoiler it for everyone.  "for those of you wondering, the score is 58-0 what a game!"   

 

Did I say jag-bag?  I meant ass-hat.

 

Don't be that guy.

I don't know what kind of plans you're making but they can be broken no matter what. I watched Panthers - NYG in 2006 dodging terrorists to get to the big tent in Baghdad so I'm sure you can do it too :)

 

If it were just me affected, no doubt -- plans would be changed in a heartbeat.

 

But there are others involved, and if I cancel then other people will be out some $$ that wouldn't make it fair to do to them.  So I'm committed and have to follow through.

 

DVRs are my friend.

I saw the title and thought, "oh hey, another d-bag boasting about going to a big game."

 

Then I read the thread, and kinda like OP. Good, honest guy, placing others before him. Much respect brotha. 

 

Granted, I can't imagine hanging out with males (I'm assuming some will be there) and not checking up on the Super Bowl. Or in that case, watching it, since I'm assuming you'll have a TV somewhere in the vicinity. 

 

If you're really gonna DVR then watch it later, and the Panthers are playing, without checking ESPN and whatnot. You sir, have some incredible self-discipline.

      SC won the ACC title the week before in Clemsons own house. Committee was worried about optics over talent.

      Brooks wasn’t the worst offensive draft mistake the panthers made this year

      By 45catfan · Posted

      It's crazy how folks on the huddle can draft better than our highly paid scouts.  I know I saw several mocks with the first 3 selections going Ladd, Frazier and Wilson like the above post.  Heck, one of them may have been mine.  It seems that the scouts go into paralysis by analysis.  Ladd might not be the ideal weight or height, it's tabo to draft centers high, Wilson had past injuries.  All that said, those dudes just dominated at their respective positions. Our scouting department and Morgan need the K.I.S.S montra--keep it simple stupid. STOP overthinking it.

      This team has long had an allergy to the obvious pick. They take an XL and think they can coach him up to be the next megaton or DK. Brooks to be the next Peterson. Burns to be the next LT. They pick dudes and play them outside of their natural position. They draft for need, get desperate, pick the flawed guy, and the results speak for themselves. They go to the store jonesing for a ribeye, the store is sold out except for the ‘manager’s special’ … and end up with a toilet of puke later that night…  whereas the filet that was sitting right next to it got some other dude laid.  The obvious pick with no need of coaching up has done them pretty well. Moose. Peppers. Kuechly. Davis. Gross. Jenkins, etc.  Sometimes obvious is just obvious. Consistently missing on first and second rounders gets them exactly where they are. Loser teams, devoid of talent and a revolving door at head coach.  WR: Pick the guy who can catch the damn ball. DE: pick the guy who can play the run well. Pass rush is nice, but playing the run is better.  center: smart big guy who doesn’t miss assignments.  tackle: good pass protector first. Run blocker second. If you have a really good QB and receivers that can catch, the running game will open itself up by default.    It’s not THAT hard, right? Diamonds in the rough are usually only quartz. Stop picking up dudes whose flaw is THE primary skill required for their position, thinking that you’ve got some sort of magical staff. Go BPA with the healthy guy who just flat out gets it done better than anyone else still available…. Except for a RB or special teamer. Yes BPA is boring, but it stacks the team with legit talent.    That’s what I’m going to call their reaches from now on. The f-in manager’s special. Break out the cast iron griddle, Montreal steak seasoning, and some avocado oil.
