A lot of people owe Bryce Young an apology.

i am one of a lot of people. it'll take a lot to shake the reputation he built over his awful first season and two games of this year, but I'm more than comfortable carrying him into next season... with hopefully a not completely broken team around him.
investigate Adam Silver

Need 80 percent of the draft to be spent on defense. We could be a pretty dangerous team next year with just an average defense.

I usually travel out to Asheville for a weekend every couple of years just to clear my mind. I hope they can fully recover.
Year and a half in my opinion. Maybe two. Depends on the area. Chimney rock maybe longer.
Blowing Rock, on the other hand, is doing great. Big-time business flowing in last weekend. Hour-plus wait at every restaurant downtown on Sunday evening (even Mellow Mushroom). They were largely spared the worst of the hurricane, though.
You should have tried my place, our pizza trumps Mellow Mushroom lol

Is anyone here obsessed with the show detroiters, like me? It's a shame that show only got two seasons.

Re: Off Topic
For TAR HEEL FANS. I think the starters should be
STARTERS - RJ, TREMBLE, JACKSON, POWELL, WITHERS
BENCH - EC, TYSON, BROWN
I think those 8 should be the focus of the rest of the season. I like Withers starting because he can stretch the floor and I think James Brown is the best big we have.

Re: Off Topic
For PANTHERS FANS
I think this draft we should go all defense only
COACH - not sure if Canales got lucky here with having a pretty solid offensive core or he deserves credit for being a sound offensive mind. I will mix the opinion evenly there... I would still rather Wilks as coach, but I do like Canales.
QB - We have the best young qb in the game *whos name just so happens to be young* imo. I would take Bryce over just about anyone right now... and thats saying something cause half the teams have young promising qb's.
RECIEVERS - Our receiving core is solid. XL had a few bad games, but I think he is a great 2nd option behind *Pepsi* lol. I would however try to move Thielen for a 4th rounder if possible due to his age. Glad we got back a pick for Mingo.
RB - I LOVE CH. Was super happy we drafted him. We solid here.
I think we get a new defensive coordinator as well.

Re: Off Topic
For TAR HEEL FOOTBALL FANS
Capel Bill - I like the Belichick hire for the most part. There are a few other coaches I really wanted tho. Important he has a good first season cause unlike Deion, who has "HIS FANS" Belichick could get stale after a season...
QB - BRYCE BAKER. I think its a must he starts year one. I think we really missed out when we didnt get Mateer.
DEFENSE - hiring his son Steve was a legit move. I think he might be slated to take over when he retires or leaves. I'm cool with that if it happens.

Re: Off Topic
fats, if you're not on the Eggy train you need to hop on. Jake Brownstein (son of Brownie from The Disco Biscuits) plays lead guitar and they are smooth and super fun.

Mellow Mushroom is the worst of them. I was saying there was a long wait at every one, even that one.

We went to the British pub downtown. I have a couple pizza places near me that I like, and they aren't chains. No hate on MM, it's OK to me. I haven't been to one in years.

Has RealGM forums been painfully slow/unusable for anyone else today? This is the first time I've managed to actually load the page. Hopefully whatever the issue was is fixed, I didn't even realize the page was loaded and had to do a double-take just now.

I was unable to use it for hours today. I also use a very powerful adblocker and never see any ads on here, but it still wasn't working for some reason.

Lol I always end up rewatching it around this time of year. Just watched the Farmer Zach episode and now it's time for the song to be stuck in my head for 3 weeks.
Your Charlotte Hornets! We’ll eventually get something right;right?
