Questions for Dave-

Did you know the Panthers have never won a Super Bowl?

Do you know who the Panthers single season sack leader is?

Do you know who single handily jump started the run of 4 playoff appearances in 5 years in 2013?

Do you know the Panthers do NOT have anything remotely close to an all around DE near his prime?

Do you know that this deficiency may very well stand in the way of your primary and secondary objective to WIN (the Super Bowl)?

Do you know one of the best DE’s on planet earth is loved and adored by our GM, coaching staff, and players, is not yet 30 years old but has the tread of a player not yet 25 years old, and could be had for the league minimum salary?

Do you know that said player has excelled as a human being, athlete, and teammate, in multiple sports, in the calendar year 2018?

Do you REALLY want to win Dave?  Is it REALLY your primary objective?

Yeah, nobody's asking about Hardy.  And even if they did, Tepper isn't gonna be interested given his background of seeing domestic abuse.

Hardy is never gonna be a Panther again.

Follow up questions for Dave-

Are you aware that Greg Hardy played for the Carolina Panthers in front of a supportive, adoring, and raucous Bank of America Stadium crowd on national TV in August 2014 as he abused former #1 overall pick Eric Fisher?

Are you aware that Greg Hardy played in the season opener against the Tampa Bay Bucs in 2014, earning a sack in a huge divisional road win with a backup QB, ultimately the difference in winning the division?

What is your knowledge of Ray Rice, Rebecca Thorne-Tin, and Nicole Holder?...and Jerry Richardson?

Did it bother you that the QB of your former team, the FACE of your former franchise, was alleged to have committed multiple heinous acts, including but not limited to sexual assault?

I don't think he will either but Tepper bought into a team whose face of the franchise is a serial rapist...

He bought his Steelers stake while that story was still in it's infancy, but to be real here Tepper was buying into his childhood favorite team. Roethlisberger just happened to be the QB at the time. No way to know how he felt.

Mind you, we do know how he feels about Mike Tomlin.

And there's no way to know how he feels about a guy like Hardy or any other players with question marks. He may look at each case individually and may even determine winning is more important to him than fielding a team of choirboys... or he could be more like JR and won't knowingly bring on a single guy with off field issues. No way to know... except that he determined buying into the Steelers was more important than the principle of having squeaky clean players on the team...

Pretty sure it was Gantt who said based on what he knows, he doesn't expect Tepper to handle character risks any differently than the Panthers do now. We'll see.

That said, even if he does loosen the reins on that front, I see zero chance of Greg Hardy ever wearing an official Panther uniform again.

Sure, let’s loosen the reins for real criminals that truly poison locker rooms while a real difference maker with the greatest bang for the buck in league history, who the Panthers love, WHOSE CHARGE WAS EXPUNGED, continues to pay for the sins of Ray Rice and the other 31 at the expense of the Carolina Panthers.

Even if Tepper were interested, Hardy's moved on. He's got a professional contract in another sport. One where he gets to beat up people who aren't women.

Not true.  Listen at the :55 second mark

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      By Stumpy · Posted

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
