You realize to a billionaire that would be like you ordering off the Burger King value menu and using coupons and a senior discount right ?

It’s more aggressive than that. 

Let’s say the average net worth is 1.2 million (I know it’s high but for numbers sake go with it)

1.2m dollars can buy 60 million .02 cent hamburgers

12 billion will let you order 60 million 200$ A5 steaks

 

if you were worth 12 billion an A5 steak has the same dollar value as rich 1.2million net worth individual spending 2 pennies.  

 

And tepper per may be worth far more than 12b and the avg American doesn’t have 1.2m. Nuts.

You don't know how much money I have! :)

Yea, of course I get that. All I'm saying is that we're really latching on to what one billionaire said about another billionaire over the price of a meal at a restaurant. I think Felix said it jokingly and we're comparing it to Tepper spending money on contracts.

I’m not sure why people are concerned about an owner and paying player contracts. There is a salary cap and a salary floor. To be competitive (I.e. successful) spending you max cap space is a wise financial move. I believe tepper or 99% of buyers would agree regardless of frugality. Where tepper might go crazy Is concessions, GM, coaching, ticket pricing. But again he wants the best business and understands you have to spend to make. I’m not nervous if Tepper wins that we start dollar shopping for a team.

Agreed. That's what I was trying to say but I decided against it because I couldn't find the words.

Jerry Richardson always said he wanted us to be like the Steelers, but we never really were.

If Tepper gets the team, I believe we will be.

What does that mean? Heavy heavy heavy emphasis on drafting, frugal free agency, contract battles with emerging stars and, sometimes, letting them walk.

Think Gettleman on steroids.

Granted, dual ownership works for the Giants, but I'm not a fan of the idea.

Neither is the NFL, but they are big fans of David Tepper...and his money.

Just curious, cus I haven't seen you outline it, what makes you want Navarro over Tepper?

Biggest factor: Navarro has a passion to own the Panthers. And specifically the Panthers, not just any NFL team.

Not that I think Tepper would be a bad owner (just the opposite) but It's an investment for him.

I'd prefer the guy who really really wants it.

Jerry Richardson actually has better qualities than both. Open air stadium, Carolina roots, classy, rich, smart, not afraid to spend.......No back to back winning seasons and a scandal to boot. 

 

There is no right owner. I want a winner. I don’t care if he’s from SC or Croatia.

As a PSL holder, it will be the end for me....it’s actually the end  for me now in The sense  that I can’t sell the two PSLs without the new stadium questions being settled and if it is to a new location, my PSLs do not matter   

Nothing lasts forever. 

I will say that whoever that new ownership is best make it palatable for existing PSL owners to make that move.

Not many in this area are willing to make the year over year commitment those PSLs take

think im kidding...we have all gotten very spoiled by Cam Newton and Luke.  Trying driving 2hrs up and 3.5hrs back to see Jimmy Claussen or a QB named Brian St Pierre,
