Couple of sources reported the signing around 10:30 last night but there was no official confirmation till this morning.

Not sure why the July date. I'd have assumed he becomes owner as soon as the league approves him  

Might be waiting for the Steeler ownership to be sold, before everything is official.

The whole reason for selling the team was because of JR being a perv at the workplace.

That was one of the reasons, yes, but it's still not a bad thing for him to mention that he and his wife were thankful for community support over the years. It's really par for the course. It's certainly not a how-dare-he situation within the context.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I take great pride in being called garbage by someone like you. I would be way far more concerned about myself if you were on here supporting me. Hopefully you follow that piece of trash Jerry out of here as well.

You got your pound of flesh....now go away

I'm rejuvenated. I'm not going anywhere. I have waited since 1995 to cheer for this team guilt free. Next season is going to be the most enjoyable one yet. I will forever take satisfaction in Jerry never winning a Super Bowl. I'll be on here more than ever.

smile for once man. Today is a great day.

I'm also posting from NJ, so that last line is actually pretty ireelevant.

For years I have been ripped apart for trashing Jerry Richardson on here. I had to hear over and over that he was a great owner and even better guy. Well now we all know none of that is true. 

So today is a day of celebration. Today is a day to dance on his grave. I do not wish poor health on him. I don't wish death on him. All I wish is he is never associated with the Panthers again and goes away like the disgraced owner he is.

From Jourdan Rodrigue's story in the Observer (Link)

Probably nothing, but struck me kind of odd. Similarly, Bill Voth's Twitter posts on the topic is mostly just been one word responses.

Perhaps everybody's just a little nervous about the new boss.

Awkward position for these folks, so probably best to say nothing... especially till after the owners meetings when it's officially official. Answering questions about Tepper leads to discussing JJR's departure and these guys don't want to go there.

I think this is really unfair, but you're entitled to your opinion. Even his sexual harassment accuser mentioned she had seen JJR change lives with his generosity. His health failed and things went downhill quickly, but he still founded one of the most successful expansion franchises in modern pro sports history that included two SB appearances.
