My pick for new Carolina Panthers owner


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

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.

    • fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally
    • Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations. 
    • 5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
