My pick for the Carolina Panthers recently opened majority ownership position:

 

Current Carolina Panthers minority share holder Tim Belk. 

Relatively young (60) local guy. Would never move the team. Family has strong ties to the Carolinas. 

Already has the Belk Bowl at Bank of America Stadium. Obviously loves football. 

Recently retired from Belk. Plenty of free time. 

Family is worth billions.

All the talk about Sean Combs or other celebrities completely misses this one important thing. Having millions is not going to do it. It's going to take a billion to even get into the real bidding. 

And with Belk, he already owns a minority share, adding in JR's percentage would make him a very strong majority holder.

That is true but celebrities/athletes could easily go the Jeter route.

They would probably increase his share to 49% and bring in a new minority owner to make up the difference.

So Tim Belk would have to buy Jerrys full 47 percent or does just needs to own a larger percentage than everyone else?

Jeter has no real say on what goes on with the Marlins.  They just got his face out there.  The real owners are behind the scenes.

Yeah, they got a good deal there.  They have Jeter as the face and he gets blamed for everything.

...and the fans are going in on him right now heehee!!!  Trading away all their good hitters.  If they are not now, they will be the Cleveland Browns of Baseball next year.

He would need to increase his share to become a majority owner.  I'm assuming Richardson's kids and wife aren't going to sell their minority shares and that no other owner will sell their share either.

Yes, it is sad.  It would be one thing if they were getting good deals.  They did not get enough for Ozuna but at least they got something.  Basically gave Stanton and Gordon away.

It is far more complicated, of course, than just increasing a minority share.  Richardson's share of the team is held as a partnership which contains many incorporated entities within the partnership.  The two main incorporated entities are Richardson's LLC which owns the majority share and the second LLC which is made up of the several individuals owning minority shares in different proportions.  Levine appears to be the largest minority owner within the minority LLC.  The Belk family appears to be the third or fourth in terms of size of minority owners, owning about 5% of the franchise.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
