Tepper is the guy: Love it or hate it?

[Mr. Scot]

So with Ian Rapoport now confirming Tepper, what's your reaction?

Love it? Hate it? Fear it? Embrace it?

What..and why? And what are your predictions for what happens next?

[The Huddler]

I love and embrace it

 

finally a hard ass that will set up a “win at all costs” attiude throughout the organization    Perform or gtfo  

 

no more country club good ol boy bullshit. 

[Sam Mills Fan]

What about "fine with it"?

[Khaki Lackey]

I don’t like the idea of an absentee owner, but hey, hopefully it means he’s not a particularly meddlesome one also. I don’t like the way it seems that the league had too much say in this transaction, but I blame the league, not Tepper, for that. 

[Carl Spackler]

If he keeps the team in the Carolinas, love it. Otherwise, loathe it. As important as it is to enjoy success, I value the location more.

[rodeo]

indifferent. nothing to get excited over, pretty bland option.

[Pimpdaddy]

...change is almost always met with apprehension but in this case its past due. thanks for the ride JR.... but first line of order, i hope, is to send that clown of GM packing... Riv is on a two year lease...

[MikeD83]

As long as the team stays, I’m cool with it. Hate that Navarro got shafted by the Good Ol Boys Club though. 

[panthers55]

Waiting to see what he does and says. Too early to know if he is going to be good or bad 

[Semaj]

I love that this organization is finally going in a new direction.  I hope that and believe that our days off mediocrity are finally finished.   I believe someone like Mr. Tepper is not going to be ok with average to below average.  I believe that he's a winner and will demand excellence at all levels of the organization.  I have wanted the Panthers under new ownership for awhile now.  It's finally happened.  Thanks goes out to JR for bringing a team to the Carolina's.   That will be his legacy.  We are moving to a new chapter in our history now.

[TheRed]

Yeah I'm indifferent overall. Could do better, definitely could have done worse.

We'll see how many changes he makes. Either way it won't take too much to improve on the Jerry Richardson brand of football.

What happens if he decides we need "change" at quarterback?

Mind you, I don't think that's gonna happen, but I do have to acknowledge that it's possible.

[countryboi]

he is not the guy i wanted and honestly it sounds like he wasnt all that pressed to be an NFL owner either. long has he lets football people do football work we will be fine.
