No. SI is not reliable at all and all that was alleged is that he called a black scout the n-word once. I mean seriously... That's fuging nothing

Well, IF he did that it wouldn't be good. People call people names to hurt them, lots of people use that word and others, but a man in his position should not be doing that. Bad. To condemn him myself, I would at least need something concrete. Knowing the context would be good.

I have felt it was time for him to go for a while though, in the same way I'd have felt it was time for Tom Benson to go were I a Saints fan. We needed new blood. 

Tepper seems to me like we got lucky. I am a fan so far. A guy that will tear down a perfectly good mansion to make a point, probably isn't gonna be pinching pennies.

Like I said, we saw the same thing with Greg Hardy. I don't know if it's misogyny, celebrity worship, or both; but this forum has a long history of defending people associated with this team no matter how awful a person they are outside of games or board meetings. 

If only these boards had been around when they dragged Rae Carruth out of that trunk in Tennessee.

So proper punishment for some borderline senile 80+ year old dropping 1 n-word

yeah, right.

(that’s all that has been reported and if this was a common thing it would come out easily) is to make him sell the franchise? I’m not condoning the behavior including the sexual harassment (if the allegations are true which is questionable) however it’s all been blown significantly out of proportion. That’s what I’m saying is wrong to some and right to others. Not the alleged behavior.

if the years of sexual harassment have only just now come out, what would make his use of racial slurs any different?

(if the allegations are true which is questionable)

the fact that you say this despite pictures of the handwritten notes he used to harass his employees and the numerous stories from multiple sources within the building just show that you are caping for JR

Some of you guys (most of you in fact) excuse Jerry Richardson completely just like you did Greg Hardy...LOL

I don't excuse him completely but some of the visceral reactions in here are hillarious.

Hes still being investigated by the NFL...why, after the sale of the team. Tep gonna get a hammer smack down for JR?

Word was that Tepper was having clauses included in the sale contract stipulating that any punishments related to Jerry Richardson's actions we're Richardson's responsibility alone.

That wouldn't apply to punishments that were directed at the team itself, of course.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
