I'll just echo what has already been said, but I don't think it can be said enough. What Ames has done is unbelievable -- incredible -- way beyond the call of duty. He didn't even have a duty to do this in the first place. And he's right -- what I posted about Sanders in the den, I would not have posted at all on this site if I hadn't had the den to post it to. This whole argument shouldn't even be a debate. Ames is amazing. Enough said."...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."Comment

Actually, 1/2 of the money is going to go to the Athletic Club as a donation from Panther Nation.Originally posted by Reed Rothchild
The Supporting Member idea was created to generate some $$$$ for hosting costs and donations to the AC. Period.
The new Panther Den was not meant to create animosity between fellow posters. For any site that is "non profit"...if you are going to ask members to donate, you have to offer something that non donors can't have or see. I don't see any reason why we can't try to entice more members to donate...the more money we generate...means more $$$$$ to the Athletic Club.Comment

The purpose of the Den is to give PN posters more. Would BAP posted the info that Youngstown State fans could have seen and gotten back to their coaching staff about? I don't think BAP would have done anything that would have given a little advantage from UNI to YSU. Most likely, no opposing team's fans will give this site money just to see the premium content (also, Ames will not allow those with suspicious names/identities to become premium members). This site is all about giving Panther fans more. We are trying to give Panther fans more info, more updates, and a huge support group. I think those goals have been accomplished and are becoming even more accomplished with the creation of the Panthers Den.
Gonzo, I know where you are coming from, and we aren't trying to do that with this site. Yes, I posted that thread as a "bait and switch", and I probably shouldn't have, so I appologize. However, you know that there are people on here who have more inside info than others. Some info is shared on this website in public forums, while other info should be used more cautiously. I think you will see more of an inside interaction with the Den.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.Comment

That's a very good point...one that I didn't think of.Originally posted by Panthers to the BoneComment

Thanks for reading and comprehending my post Bone. I apologize to all who obviously did not comprehend it and were offended. It seems I was accused of saying a number of things I didn't say. I didn't say anything negative towards Ames or question his right to ask for financial support.Originally posted by Panthers to the Bone
The site is fantastic, Ames is great and is entitled to run the site anyway he desires. I would not be one of the supporting members if I did not believe those things. As someone who has been at this board since day 1 and has read damn near every single post ever made (I spend way too much time on here actually) I feel like I have made an investment in the site as well, not a financial one, but an emotional one. I'm not entirely in agreement with some of the direction I see the board taking recently, but I'm not planning on taking my ball and going to play elsewhere.
I think I was a little on edge when I made the post this morning, I feel a lot better after watching the game today.Last edited by GonzoCat; 11-03-2005, 11:23 AM.GO PANTHERS!Comment

I don't think you have to appologize for anything Gonzo. This is a discussion board where very opinionated people bring their views and share them with everyone. Your criticism was valid and it brought forth some very good responses. This board wouldn't be as great as it is if everyone agreed with each other.Originally posted by GonzoCatComment

anyone know how his ankle felt after the game. Is it the same or did it get worse?"We're not an ordinary school," said Fort. "We have tradition. We have a good team year after year. We rebuild, and it doesn't matter who we have coming back."
