I expect the statue to come down shortly after the sale closes, but I hope a big deal isn't made about it. Just take it down and be done with it. 

This. No need to make a huge spectacle of it all. Take it down one late night and let’s move on.

I hate to see it go away, but let's face the facts: Richardson's actions caused him to be removed from the league and made him a disgrace. His actions put the statue up there and his actions will be the reason it is removed.

Had he just been the guy he appeared to be as a public persona, he could have retired, sold off the team and that statue would be sanctified through the years. He just wasn't that guy, not even a shadow of him and now it's best to just let it slink off to the shadows along with the man.

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
