Tepper engaging fans

So good that he has his own football team to run it for him.

True :)

One thing I think is certain: Fans are about to be engaged by and invested in the team at a level they haven't been in a long, long time.  Maybe ever.

He looks to be a great owner for us. After JR and with many owners being complete douches (Jerry Jones, Jim Irsay, Robert McNair) I hoped for the best but was prepared and feared for the worst. Tepper could really be the real deal, which I am ecstatic about. I just don't want to put this guy on a pedestal and enable him the way JR was enabled to be a complete phony. If he keeps being a great dude, I'll be a fan.

The fact that Tepper said a lot today about keeping fans in the stadium tells me he wants fans involved and invested.

You can foresee a lot of good things coming out of that.

He never skirted a question.  Even the public funding question was answered to a degree.  He’s a like able guy that is most likely a shrewd negotiator which does not bode well for opponents of publicly funding a stadium.  

Probably a couple years away but I think he will approach it with a win win philosophy and things won’t get nasty.

Yeah, that was one of two or three questions I think annoyed him a little.

Gantt's question did too, and he sounded a little miffed responding to Katie Peralta.

    • I will admit this- Kon doesn't look or play like a 19 year. Much bigger and filled out than I thought he was. Plus initiate the offense during his best quarter and he did make some good passes for FG attempts.   I watch NBA years ago and was a top 3 fantasy yahoo managers for years. Many times a player had like 30 points, it mostly came from one or 2 hot quarters. The others were 5 and 0, so his 16 point game is normal in that regard.    If Ball, bridges, and Miller allow Kon to be apart of the team, just depends on if he clicks of not. Another generic white guy comp popped in my head........he of hornet lore-Gordon Hayward 15 points 5 rebs 3.5 asst Maybe??
    • Here are a couple of links.   Wish I had seen this before this past weekend as appears they had a big fundraiser event last week. https://sites.google.com/vollminadvisory.com/thewilmingtonarenaproject/home https://www.wwaytv3.com/wilmington-native-leads-push-for-new-multi-use-venue-to-attract-professional-hockey-team/ https://portcitydaily.com/latest-news/2025/07/13/wilmington-nonprofit-fundraising-for-10k-seat-arena-to-lure-pro-ice-hockey-team/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577145613291    
    • Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄
