  1. I'm sure you would. I'm also sure you'd be just as honest as you have been about your father and other things But. with that said, I'm not desperately trying to convince anybody I'm smart or looking to prove anything to anyone (definitely not you)
  2. You have. a link showing this...right? And why such contempt for "working men", anyway? We can't all be billionaires or have dads who play golf with Pat McCrory, you know.
  3. Corral likely isn't a millionaire just yet. They don't pay him his entire salary just for signing his rookie contract.
  4. Not quite. His original position was that the bankruptcy was planned, not a contingency. It was meant as a way of saying that David Tepper doesn't make mistakes. As to the other, he had claimed a few weeks back that his father regularly plays golf with Pat McCrory but more recently told someone that his father has been dead for nine years. Hence, why I'm mocking his attempts at portraying himself as a guru of sorts. If it helps, this particular ID is the latest incarnation of our old two tight end loving friend Sanjay.
  5. You were arguing that the bankruptcy was planned. You just said it wasn't As to the rest of the stuff, it's pretty obvious you copied that from somewhere else. Unless you want to claim that your late father who passed 9 years ago learned it from playing golf with Pat McCrory last week.
  6. Dude, if you can't even come up with a half decent response (and we all know you can't) don't bother.
  7. Tepper technically had nothing to do with Richardson being removed. He just bought the team after it happened. As a side note, I'm not sure how anyone buys the idea that Marty didn't know about the stuff Richardson was doing.
  8. That should have happened sooner though. Hurney sticking around for another year helped lead to Matt Rhule.
  9. Funchess wasn't a guy I'd call a true possession receiver. When I hear that term, I think of this guy...
  10. It was never part of the plan. Tepper is doing this so that he can avoid having to pay everything that's currently owed to the people that did work on the facility up to now. And if you think you factor into my decision making, don't flatter yourself
  11. For those who had him as a vet QB option, afraid he's out. To his credit, he actually made a pretty decent career for himself.
  12. He doesn't. He's got a thing with trying to look smart online, primarily because it's... not something he experiences in the real world. He's been advised many times that he'd be better off not pulling stunts like this, but he doesn't listen.
  13. People who laugh at the dumb things that you do don't really constitute "fans". And given that you've already gotten yourself a temp ban, you might wanna try sticking to football
  14. Yeah, that's...an incredibly stupid thing to say. Can't say I'm surprised though
  15. Florio... The process will allow Tepper’s real estate company to pay contractors who worked on the abandoned site, with the obvious reality being that there’s a good chance some or all will be paid less than they are owed. Yes, it seems odd that a multi-billionaire would be able to shirk or minimize financial responsibilities by taking advantage of the bankruptcy laws. But rich people don’t get or stay that way by being stupid. In creating a company that was and is separate from his personal fortune and putting that company in charge of the aborted construction project for his football team’s stadium, Tepper can shield himself from having to dip into his own piggy bank to pay 100 cents on the dollar to those who provided services to a project that Tepper dumped once public financing didn’t come through. The NFL, as explained in the article from TheAthletic.com, has no issue with the situation because the company declaring bankruptcy is separate from club ownership. However, these debts were incurred directly from an effort to build a new practice facility and headquarters for an NFL team. The idea that an NFL owner can play a financial shell game in order to force those who are owed a certain amount of money from devoting professional efforts to building an NFL facility to basically take whatever they can get from a bankruptcy estate feels wrong, no matter how technically right or legal it may be.

  16. "You see? I couldn't possibly pay for a new stadium myself. My real estate company is bankrupt!"
  17. As both an old guy and a longtime student of the game... ...I have no idea what that phrase means
