What's happening with the Panthers? Well, this report from 4 months ago might actually be true.

Maybe Michael Jordan is interested

I'd be pretty worried. Granted MJ doesn't know poo about football but he's too competitive to stay out of decisions

I don't think any of this has to do with selling the team. 

I think all of it has to do with Jerry Richardson wanting to get back to a family feel within the organization. 

My take also.

Of course, when we were at our most "family" like is also when we were continually losing.

I dunno--our darkest time as a franchise was from 96-01, where you had a star get in a money battle, a QB quit on the team, a player hire someone to kill his girlfriend, various disastrous trades, and lawsuits.  From 03-09, we pretty much turned all that around into a tight-knit locker room, mainly by drafting players who were high-caliber people and cultivating homegrown leadership.  And I think that JR should get some credit for making demands of that, because Lord knows we crap on him enough for other things around here.

The down side of PSL's are you exclude a good number of blue collar fans who are often times the most passionate. 

More cheese and rosé for me

Didn't Forbes just rank us as the 30th most valuable sports franchise in the world? I believe they put a value of 2 billion on the Panthers. That figure has almost doubled in the past few years.

The wine and cheese crowd at BofA likes Yadkin Valley wine and canned cheese product.

I wonder who the top cash-ready owner contenders are. Would make a good thread, who is a perfect fit for an NFL owner

No, that's like a Michelin award winning restaurant firing the general manager while keeping the chef, sous chef, and pastry chef and all the recipes.

Yeah this. our team has all the on-field pieces to succeed. Need new management and a new coach or two, but just on player talent alone we are set up really well, which would be attractive to any prospective owner
