Jason La Confora: "hearing that Park Avenue is putting pressure on [Panthers] to go outside the organization for their hires and make this go away."

Nope. I don't claim no know anything about him at all. None of what you mentioned here are facts.

Everything I've said here refers back to statements that have been made by people with direct knowledge of Richardson, statements that are also consistent with each other.

If you want to say that those statements are false, then you too would need a direct source.

Do you have one?

If you don't, you're basically just playing the "I don't believe anything I don't see myself even if a hundred other people say it" card.

Does anyone on the huddle know what "allegedly" means? IF Richardson or Hurney are guilty of the accusations against them then they deserve what is coming.

[RoaringRiot]

Just like it was discussed in AP earlier today

[TPanther920]

Companies pay out claims everyday for no reason other than it is cheaper. The company I work for does it. Our attorneys tell us to do it, the claimants attorneys primary argument is that it is cheaper for us than the expense of defending against their clients claim and the bad PR. People are always after a dollar from "the man" for no reason than "he has it and can afford it"

The guy had a fuging statue constructed of himself. Until JR is gone and that thing is taken down, I don’t expect much to change.

Richardson is selling the team.  There is nothing the NFL can do to him.  Except perhaps turn info over to the cops if there is something illegal. But that is unlikely.

Not claiming them to be false or true. Thousands of people have worked for Jerry Richardson. You're going to believe the extremely tiny amount that have said some stuff anonymously through the media, knowing full well that they are likely to be disgruntled employees for whatever reason and have plenty of motivation to make things up or stretch the truth? And even the things that were claimed were not significant in the least.

Richardson will Only do what's best for the team if someone else forces him to. 

Other than that, he'll just continue to live in his own deluded, narcissistic little world where Marty Hurney is the best GM in NFL history and nobody else comprehends his genius.

 

You sound like you were the one fired,  instead of your bygone hero Gettleman.

Yep Mr Scot has gone off the deep end

Wasn't it this same jerk la confora that was telling us yesterday that a new gm hire was imminent ?  Sounds to me like he is making poo up as he goes along.

Why are they "likely to be disgruntled employees" other than that's your judgment?

"Thousands of employees"? Great. What percentage of them were attractive young women? 

That's really the only subset that's relevant to the harassment complaints. Nobody has alleged that Richardson asked Thomas Davis how he got into his jeans this morning (or whether he shaved his legs).

When you got the same stories being told by multiple people (and if you read the Sports Illustrated article, it's not just "an extremely tiny amount") you start to put two and two together.

And yes, if my daughter's boss talked to her that way, I'd find it quite significant.

Except non-disclosure agreements of this sort are required to be reported to the league. It's part of the personal conduct policy.

The Panthers paid out hush money and wrote up non-disclosure agreements four times without telling the league.

I'd say that's a trend.

Logic.

Well of the 2500 restaurants he owned I'm fairly sure a damn large percent of them were "attractive" young women... You know, waitresses, hostesses, bartenders, etc.

It's pretty embarrassing that you're basing all of this off of one article in from a failing magazine.

If my daughter's boss talked to her that way I would recommend one of two things. Tell him to stop or leave the company. Simple. Nobody's forcing these people to hear Jerry Richardson talk in a way that may offend them. Words like that from someone are largely insignificant.
