I did, it wasn't that long and complicated.  I said it seems like a conflict of interest, and I wonder if it was.  I am conflicted and I don't know.  An owner of a team has a bias toward their asset and I wonder if a broadcast booth would allow an owner to maintain a consistent broadcasting career given that they would have to broadcast their own team.    Its hypothetical I know.  I have watched enough announcing to know that there is not much impartial broadcasting going on out there.  

I gotcha now. I was thinking of it in legal terms which to me there's no question that it would not be a conflict. But yeah that would be something the network would have to consider if they wanted to hire him and he wanted to announce as a minority owner. Either way I don't see him announcing at all, and particularly not if he was a minority owner somewhere--which would likely come with a front office role.

I wonder if this will hurt Navarro's bid or not. I would think the Panthers would want to steer clear on anyone with sex scandal accusations. This report came out last October.

 

That’s how  I feel but I don’t count 

he is far from the golden one that the NFL painted him to be

Remember the very justified talk during the Hardy injustice of how it’d only be a matter of time before bogus allegations were used against innocent men and teams for the on field and financial advantage of others?  Allegations are just that-allegations.

True. But if you use that logic then apply it to Richardson as well.

The messages from the old fool JR himself hung him, not Ray Rice elevator video.

 Don't get me wrong I am in no way excusing Richardson for his ridiculous behavior and Peyton was 19 at the time not fully grown. Still interesting that supposedly a payout occurred with Manning as well to settle the case similar to what Richardson did as well.

And you may well be right.

It's long been rumored that Peyton wants to run a team. And it's no stretch to imagine that part of Navarro's pitch could be "And hey if you sign on, I'll put you in charge of the whole damn show!"

So while we're pondering how we feel about Manning the owner, you might also want to consider how you feel about Manning the GM.

I was doing laundry :)

Believe it or not, I do have a life outside of this board :thinking:

I hadn't thought about the GM angle

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
