How do you assess extracting as much taxpayer money as possible as "trying to plant the franchise deeper into the community"?

That’s the norm in sports ownership. By that token there was no reason to trust JR would stay either. 

Regardless I was referring to stuff like the uptick in community outreach, the new facilities, the One Carolina push, the Hall of Honor, even the MLS team. These are all things that tie the organization to the area more and profoundly dumb investments if you want the flexibility to just go to the highest bidder.

Any team that moves to London can call themselves whatever they want. They will be known as the sillynannies.

Panthers social media team is still sucking up H A R D to London. Retweeting stuff like this: 

 

The very instant that Tepper asks for anything from Charlotte, Meck Co. or state government and he doesn't get it, "London" will be in the next sentence he utters. Make no mistake about it. If he doesn't get his way with a stadium and has the tourism tax foot the bill, the London Panthers will be a reality.

This is utterly stupid and I say this every time this comes up.  The NFL is not going to move a team that has good attendance from the 8th largest regional market(Charlotte and the triangle).

to suggest otherwise is nothing more than showing your ignorance on the subject. 

Teams that would move are the Jags or Chargers.  Both teams are already present in saturated markets(markets where other teams are present) and have trouble filling seats in the stadium.

This whole conversation is beyond stupid

Hopefully no NFL team ever moves to London.  Yeah, let's move an American sports team to the other side of the Atlantic ocean.  Stupid.

London fans sure showed up unlike fans in the Carolinas who sell their tickets to opposing fans or not bother to show up and cheer
