Pilldoc: I used to have partial seasons pass to the Panthers and they keep trying to sell me again but I find myself disinterested at the games other than those with the O and B. Tallon is probably a shrewd judge of talent. But in the past this team has traded or lost its good players after their "youth" due to low budget and/or frequent management change. The new owner, Viola, may bring a new vision. He is deep-pocketed and hard-nosed. I do not know if they can rearrange a turnaround overnight here. Many of the sportswriters view this franchise as irrelevant given its poor attendance and performance. The facility in Sunrise is beautiful. It is sad the product hasn't been better. Time will tell regarding Thomas, Boyes, and the other late arrivals. What's clear is that Dineen and his staff are in the final year of their contracts. Peace and best wishes, Howie
