It’s a must-win day for the Panthers today as they take on their division rival Atlanta on the Falcons’ turf. The Panthers must win today (or have help from other teams) to clinch a playoff berth. To make matters worse, they are also 1-9 in the Georgia Dome.
They will still have a shot at the playoffs if they lose, but they would need a Cowboys or Redskins loss in order to make that happen. Of course, in my opinion we would not be in this awkward position of having to win today or having to depend on other teams to lose if we hadn’t been robbed of a win last week thanks to a bad call by the officials (in the opinions of many here). Yeah, we could have played that game better, but the bottom line is we were ahead and would have stayed ahead, had the bad call not been made against us after the BLOCKED Dallas FG.
Sour grapes aside, this is one of those games I’m going to be watching with one eye shut.
Kick bootie, gents.
Update: Why do I always miss the good stuff? I had stepped out quickly to grab a bit to eat and while listening to the game on the radio the commentators were talking about Jake Delhomme having to go to the locker room to change out of ripped trousers. I’ve never heard of any such rule stating that players having ripped trousers have to go back to the locker room to change ![]()
BTW, right now I’m home and can’t see the game – Fox must be having technical difficulties. All other channels are working fine. I did HEAR that Foster ran 70 yards for a TD against Atlanta just now. Woohoo!
Update II 1:48 pm EDT: Fox is still having tech difficulties – this is ridiculous! I wanna see the game ![]()
1:49 pm EDT: Yay – it’s back on.
3:54 pm: 37-3 Panthers with five minutes to go. Yeeeehaaaa!
Final score: 44-11 Panthers. We’re going to the playoffs

HAPPY NEW YEAR, Sister!
You are truly my favorite Southern Belle Blogger and I am looking forward to your posts for 2006!
Sis:
Do you have your computer right beside the television, with your bloggong software open, just ready to pounce on everything whilst you watch the Panthers?
I’m guessing that with a 34-3 lead, you’re not too depressed right now.
Dana – I do have a TV in the computer room, but I’m on the laptop in the living room right now. And you’re right, I’m not depressed at the moment
Tyler – thanks! Happy New Year to you as well.
The all-important Vikings-Bears game isn’t on Fox here in the Bay Area. Outer Limits is on, and boy is it awful!
Congratulations Dear. I Hope they do well!!
Yaaayyyy!! My Steelers made it, too!

And what the heck happened to the Falcons this season? What a bust they turned out to be. Maybe it will be a Steeler – Panther Super Bowl!!

My Bucs are the South Champs
, but my Eagles died . 
Happy, happy New Year, ST!
Redskins are going to the playoffs after a 5 game win streak !
They beat the Cowboys twice and the Eagles twice !
Joe Gibbs may do it again !
BTW, Sorry Benning…….
Da’Bearsss!
This year my two favorite teams (Steelers & Panthers) made the play-offs. In fact, the field is mostly teams I like. Here’s to Denver, Cincy and NE making first round exits.
