No, you should stop. If you like what he posts, that's fine. Don't waste your time wagging your finger at others because they don't.

Exactly the response he was hoping to elicit, lol! You guys fall for it every single time.

Crickets from Scot for months until the Tepper/Rhule bashing threads started in earnest. Since then he's been here every day adding to the pile, lol.

Stirs couldn't have hand-picked a better candidate himself. Allen is partnered with Sinclair Broadcasting(remember the 'fake news' script they forced their affiliates to read on-air), and co-owns FoxSports. So now the NFL will be able to use FoxSports AND ESPN as their mouthpieces with less pushback.

Well, Rhule did say he wants to play old school football. Doesn't get much older.

Beat me to it!

Reminds me of Gene Hackman recruiting the sumo wrestler in The Replacements. "Offensive linemen have to move other big men around; what do you think sumo wrestlers do?"

Jeans Day Jerry had both of his sons in executive positions. At least she's heading what's basically the charity arm of Tepper Sports, which to be honest, she has always been out in front of.

Both of these threads are amazing.

Watching Andrew Whitworth play in another Super Bowl, after passing on him because of his age/price, and going with Matt Kalil. Ugh.

Plenty of crunchy, anti-vaxx types from CLT to AVL for him and Shaileen to commiserate with. Warmer winters, an offensive coordinator who he knows and trusts, offensive weapons, a good defense.

How does Mahomes do it?!? Lots and lots of uncalled holding,

Tepper is probably geeked up about his new soccer team taking the pitch for the first time in another month or so, and couldn't care less about the Rhule situation at the moment.

It's going to be three bad seasons, bud. It's still a selling point from an HC candidate's perspective.

I am coming around to this rationalization of why Tepper is keeping Rhule. Another point is that next offseason, when we're looking to replace Rhule, Tepper can point to the fact that he gave Rhule ample time to prove himself, and didn't fire him after one bad season. I hope to god that Fitterer gets final say on draft picks/trades this offseason though. Rhule has already burnt this thing to the ground. I don't want him to start drilling into the Earth's crust.

Huh?

You guys are BIG mad, about a game. Hurling insults and writing angry open letters you know aren’t going to make a difference. Y’all are grown men, right?

So a great player who's never going to be healthy, for a healthy player who's never going to be great. :(.

He’s probably thinking he should’ve divorced his first wife and gotten a second wife that looks as good in blue jeans as the current Mrs. Tepper.

Wait, so you both live out of state, and you sell most of your tickets anyway? So what you're saying is that you're no longer going to be the ones reselling those seats on the secondary market? Not a real compelling argument that the Panthers are actually losing fans in any meaningful way. I'd like Matt Rhule replaced as well, but the level of breath-holding and foot-stomping that you guys are doing is silly. Don't take this the wrong way, but no one(decision-makers for the Panthers) cares if you stop reselling those seats, or that American Airlines is losing a few roundtrip CHI-CLT airfares. It's almost as silly as those people that write long posts about how they're not going to post on the Huddle anymore. It's just a game y'all! It doesn't really matter.

When I put my tinfoil hat on, I think that maybe Tepper is trying to increase our current fandom’s apathy to the point that no one would care if he picked up stakes and moved the team, but I can’t think of another city worth going to that doesn’t already have one or two teams.

Cheapskates and Boomers.
