Tales
from the Carolina Panthers Sideline
by Scott Fowler
Hardcover from Sports Publishing LLC
ISBN: 1582618356
The Carolina Panthers shocked the NFL in 2003. Only two seasons removed
from a disastrous 1-15 season, they won three straight playoff games and
roared all the way to their first-ever Super Bowl appearance before losing
in the final seconds in one of the best Super Bowls ever played. Tales
from the Carolina Panthers Sideline is the behind-the-scenes story not
only of that extraordinary Panthers team, but also of the men who have
shaped Carolina's past and will determine its future. Jake Delhomme, Steve
Smith, Sam Mills, John Fox, Mike Rucker, Kevin Donnalley, Bill Rosinski,
and many others sat down for exclusive interviews with author Scott Fowler,
ensuring that there are many stories about the Panthers that readers have
never heard before. From Delhomme's brief stint as a karaoke singer to
the reason Steve Smith walks to every Panthers home game to the real story
about Mills' courageous battle with cancer, Tales from the Carolina Panthers
Sideline brings the Panthers' biggest stars into vivid focus. Says Tony
Kornheiser, star of ESPN's Pardon the Interruption: "The Carolina Panthers
captured our imagination like no other sports team in 2003. This team has
an incredible story that must be told -- and nobody can tell it as well
as Scott Fowler."
Not just a celebration of the Panthers' 2003 season, Tales from the
Carolina Panthers Sideline also features anecdotes about the Panthers'
early years. From the team's birth in 1995, a host of memorable characters
has passed through the locker room. They include a future reality TV star,
a head coach who kept his distance from everyone, and a player who loved
to saunter in on Sundays wearing platform heels and a fur coat. Bulging
with bite-sized anecdotes both funny and poignant, this book is a must-read
for every Carolina Panthers fan. It is a fun-filled, unforgettable look
at a team that rose to the top of the NFL in the 2003 season. |

Bill
Rosinski's Tales from the Carolina Panthers
by Bill Rosinski, Pat Yasinskas
Hardcover from Sports Publishing LLC
ISBN: 1596701781
In 1995, seconds after Carolina Panthers radio voice Bill Rosinski
introduced former NFL coach Jerry Glanville to a gathering of fans at the
site that now is Bank of America Stadium, everyone got a quick glimpse
of what was ahead. The teams stadium was under construction and the Panthers
were playing their home games at Clemson University. The atmosphere was
giddy, because the Panthers were winning some games on their way to a 79
season.But Glanville said it didnt really matter yet and told the crowd
they wouldnt arrive until they had their first winning season, their first
losing season, and a player arrested. Those words were prophetic as all
three events soon played out in dramatic fashion. The Panthers havent always
been good, but theyve always been interesting on and off the field.In Bill
Rosinskis Tales From The Carolina Panthers Sideline, Carolinas former radio
voice chronicles the Panthers manic rise from expansion team to NFC Championship
play in its second season. With humor and insight gathered from thousands
of interviews and long flights on the team plane, Rosinski recalls those
bright days and how it all quickly fell apart.He also provides an insiders
look at how George Seifert went from legendary coach upon his arrival in
Carolina to a forgotten man three seasons later. But Rosinski never will
forget Seifert, crediting him as the first NFL coach to use the phrase
zany. That word may best summarize Seiferts wacky tenure, which featured
receiver Rae Carruths murder charge, offensive coordinator Bill Musgraves
strange departure four games into the 2000 season, the unsuccessful attempt
to buy a Hall of Fame defensive line with the aging Reggie White, Chuck
Smith, and EricSwann, and the gloomy final season |
