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.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
