yep, they had that press release ready and waiting. Basically a gtfo memo. New Sheriff in town.

Gantt is talking about her now.  Acknowledged that she was primarily just Richardson's proxy. 

Also confirms that Richard Thigpen is likely dead meat.

To be fair, most of the football people are getting in some final relaxation before training camp starts.

I also don't think Rivera has any reason to be nervous. Wonder if he'll fly in to be at Tepper's press conference tomorrow. Schaffers Mill is at Lake Tahoe.

Definitely can't fire coaches at this time of year without major upheaval, but if I were him I would.

Um, can you clarify your prepositions? I assume you mean if you were Ron you'd fly in, NOT if you were Tepper that you'd fire Ron?!? (Sorry, it's late here, I'm tired!)

Tina likely fulfilled her purpose during a difficult transition of team ownership.

I trust she was well compensated and wish her nothing, but the best.

Now, can we finally hire some upper management with the knowledge and ability to produce back to back winning seasons?

Interesting comma use in that second sentence there :)

    • I liked him when he was at Michigan because I'm a Wolverine homer. After that... 
    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.
