saw this on ESPN

Tolbert has a lot to learn....if you are going to give the middle finger to someone by paying a large bill in annoying change you have to take the coins out of the boxes and out of the nice pretty rolls.

There's two sides to every story and the truth is usually somewhere in the middle. Impossible to say who's at fault here given the info in the article. Both sides honestly sound plausible at face value. 

it might be that he went in there leaning on them to comp the work, that pissed them off, and then they kept coincidentally having "setbacks" and raising the estimate.

both sides would technically be telling the truth if that was the case

Totally agree.

I merely took enjoyment out of the fact Tolbert totally screwed up his "revenge". Everything was rolled and in neat bank boxes. Kinda defeats the purpose because it was all neatly packaged to carry right back to the bank.

gotta use loose change, Mike.  You get a fail there.

why should I be outraged at this?

Shouldn't be.  Posted merely because it is a Panther making the big news outlets. 

Emphasis in post is more on his poor execution and lesson to be learned if someone ever opts to get on that level. Not picking a side in the dispute because we don't know the truth.

To be fair I bet that was a bitch to carry.

Dude. You gotta unroll those coins. Put a layer in a five gallon bucket, thin layer of dirt, another layer of coins, and so forth. Keeps them from putting it in the coin counter at the bank.

 

fuging rookie

"Ok sir, you can have your car back when we get this taken care of down at the bank. Should just be 2-4 weeks."

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
