Panthers owner David Tepper buys John Fox’s Quail Hollow mansion for $5.35 million

https://charlotte.axios.com/234660/panthers-owner-david-tepper-buys-john-foxs-quail-hollow-mansion-for-5-35-million/

That isn't his primary residence.  That basically his apartment for when he shows up in Charlotte.   He just bought a 70 million dollar home in FL.

My personal pipe dream is that the NFL forces Stephen Ross to sell the Dolphins and Tepper decides he'd rather own them than the Panthers.

There was a rumor that one of the Walton family heirs might be interested in buying the Broncos. Maybe he could take the Panthers from Tepper instead. Don't remember the exact amount, but his reported net worth made Tepper look like a small business owner.

 

 

(I can dream) 😕

Tepper is going to turn the entire state of SC against the Panthers by the time the season starts.

Smart business move.

Tepper probably realized he can just have training camp in Charlotte and that all the SC stuff was pointless fluff that wouldn't impact his bottom line.  Jerry wanted to be in SC.  Tepper probably realizes it isn't needed.  He can just burn Wofford and then RH and it not actually impact him.

So it's an 800M project, Rock Hill bids 250M to have it in Rock Hill becuase they really want it there, they make a deal with the team, they renege, and somehow Tepper is the scummy person here

Two sides to the story right now and we don't have the truth. 

RH claims Tepper's plans have impacted the ability to secure the bonds.  And he refuses to talk to them.   If true, that wouldn't just be RH being a bad actor. 

Truth normally in the middle.

SC residents, you voted these idiots in

 

can we please strip the name ‘Carolina’ Panthers and just call them North Carolina Panthers

NC will have their moment on the dance floor with Tepper in due time.

No but at least NC will value what the franchise brings to the region and honor  whatever is agreed upon

RH politicians will put all the blame on Tepper and get re-elected.

They will certainly know what’s at stake if they don’t. 
 

Its times like these that I wish Darrin Gantt was able to really speak his mind.

RH missed a deadline to issue bonds, the deadline was extended, they missed that too.  They were talking that whole time.    Then they pointed fingers at Tepper. 

The real sad part, there were a lot of communities around Charlotte who would love to have this project and wouldn't keep dicking the Panthers around, default on their obligations, blame everyone but themselves, and then complain that Tepper won't keep talking with them when all they want to talk about is how they aren't going to meet their obligations...and "hey you're a billionaire could you cover it?"

Its a dick move.

Tepper should have chosen a different community.  Its clear whatever RH is offering at this point, it will be hard to trust them.

    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of immature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.   
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch 
    • What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
