  1. Back to the city, which is why I brought them up as the example. The city of Green Bay has no claim to any of the revenues or profits (nor do they participate in the losses for that matter) generated by the Packers. The Packers have a long-term joint-lease with the city and stadium-authority that requires them to make payments in order to conduct operations within Lambeau Field. They also have certain financial obligations as it goes to field and stadium maintenance. Also, from time to time they do contribute cash when the city/stadium-authority makes upgrades to or expands Lambeau. The Packers also have a charitable foundation from which they make hundreds of cash grants (generally less than $10k per) to a wide swath of local organizations — the aggregate of all contributions is slightly less than $2 million, foundation financials here: https://apps.irs.gov/pub/epostcard/cor/391577137_201903_990PF_2020112517457883.pdf The Packers are very well run and are almost always profitable but those net-earnings are retained/reinvested by the Packers, they are not turned over to the city.
  2. Jimmy G yards passing: 3810, 20 TDs, QBR 53, PR 98.7 Sam D yards passing 2527, 9TDs, QBR 33.2, PR 71.9 Its night and day. Jimmy has been to the SB and the conference championship two times over the last 3 years. I agree we shouldn't give up the store, but Sam to JimmyG is the definition of a big upgrade. MASSIVE upgrade. Super solid guy too... ...always represents the franchise well.
  3. Ditto Baker in Cleveland because Mr. Whip-It-Out could miss the entire season... ...again .
  4. Either that or the Charlotte City Council are a bunch of pussies and afraid to call the bluff of the team owner (unlike the Governor who did call his bluff)... ...Panthers were never going to L.A., the chance was exactly 0.00%. Votes have consequences, keep it in mind when the upcoming polling takes place .
  5. Panthers aren't going anywhere, period. Hopefully the knothead Mayor and cast of dolts on CLT City Council can figure that out before handing out a bunch of our cash to a billionaire.... Voting season coming fast folks... ...be sure to vote the issues, not the party ticket .
  6. Z-E-R-O chance what you describe actually comes to pass... ...there is no land, and there is no money.
  7. New York state just made taxpayers pay for the new Bills stadium "Votes"... ...have consequences .
  8. What if a 747 landed cleanly on Billy Graham Parkway during rush-hour...
  9. Do you really believe any professional coach is going to change his gameplan to assuage some whiny fans...
  10. Wait a minute here... ...isn't McAdoo the washed-up no-good failed head-ball-coach who couldn't even get an NFL job for 2-years? I mean the Huddle sentiment surrounding his hire was pretty much 100% negative, right? Now we're thrilled because maybe Rhule/Tepper/Fitty threw him a bone by drafting a QB in round-3?
