[edit] John Fox
Need to disambiguate John Fox. There's an article about a British statistician called John Fox!

[edit] Mathematical (score in game) impossibility...
Concerning Panthers Super Bowl: It's impossible for both teams to score 38 points in the last five minutes of half and to also end the half 14-10.

[edit] Improvement drive
National Football League is currently a candidate on WP:IDRIVE. Vote for it if you are interested in contributing.--Fenice 20:04, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] PSL sales
Not all PSLs sold on day one, just the club seats and luxury suites.
[edit] 06 Draft
Should the recent 2006 draft picks be added to this page in some way? Opuspup722 05:26, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Logo
I do recall that the logo is supposed to be shaped (tilted counterclockwise a little bit) like the outline of North/South Carolina together. Here's at least one reference other than Wiki that says this: [1]. I'll go look through one of Fowler's books on the Panthers to see if there's a reference there. SpikeJones 14:53, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Founding date
I channged the year when the Panthers were founded to 1993; although the team did not begin play until 1995, the franchise was awarded on October 26, 1993 so the team was technically founded in 1993. I also moved the page to the "1993 establishments" category.
[edit] commentary on years in headings
I added the years into the headings as I felt it helped categorize each of those sections easier for a non-fan or casual WK reader to understand. The sections are already broken out into a year-by-year recap, but the casual observer wouldn't recognize that unless they bothered to read the associated section and noticed that it was talking about a specific year. Further, by having a title of "Cardiac Cats are Super Bowl Bound" implies that they are currently SB bound (present tense) OR were SB bound in every season, when in fact that section deals with just one specific previous season. Same thing with "Injury bug" -- is this a bug that the Panthers have had throughout their existence, or was it an issue that existed for just one season? Adding the years helps clarify. SpikeJones 13:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Fair point, but the paragraphs underneath each heading make it clear they only discuss one season (with the exception of the "Dark Times" header, which states the seasons it refers to). There aren't enough seasons in the Panthers history that it requires each year to be placed in the heading, and as I said, it's clear from the paragraph which season is under discussion. Besides, the NFL WikiProject is supposedly going around to all the team pages and working on them so they fit a standard format, so we'll see how that pans out. There's a lot of work to be done on this page, so the headings likely won't stay this way forever, but at least for now, it's overboard to post every single year. Don't mean to piss on your efforts, so don't take this as someone just hating on you. Anthony Hit me up... 18:22, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] '06 Season Section
This section was written by a Panthers' fan (not myself) and is GROSSLY opinionated. It should be re-written, pronto. I'd do it myself, if I had some assistance from a "football expert". Thanks! Keekee 05:50, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
- Certainly lacks NPOV and is not encylopedic. I suggest gonging the whole section as unnecessary.SpikeJones 22:16, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

- Sorry about the 2006 section of the page. It was my first article I wrote, so that might be the reason. And, yes I am a Panthers' fan, but I did go through my article and take out a few opinions that I put. Sorry again. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NCBoi24 (talk • contribs) 22:18, 21 December 2006 (UTC).
- I still say the entire "2006 season" section that was added is unencyclopedic; is there a need for a slightly biased play-by-play account of each game in this specific article? SpikeJones 15:48, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Steriods Scandal
2006 Season some information was revealed that around 2002 or 2003 (i cant recall exactly) members of the panthers were using banned substances or something of that nature. it was one of the bigger confirmed instances of such use. if anyone knows any exact info this is probably relevant even though as a fan i hate to see it on there almost as much as i hate remembering that 1-15 season. jieagles
[edit] Eras
I changed the titles of the historic periods from tacky POV to coaching eras. None of the content was changed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.77.222.38 (talk) 19:34, 23 January 2007 (UTC).
