Tepper going crazy on Ron after 9ers. Did it happen

[raleigh-panther]

I keep seeing comments about this happening but no one is giving a source

did this really happen and who reported it?

it was deserved if it did happen 

[DeAngelo Beason]

I haven't heard anything about it.  I'd also say there's no chance that it would have seen the light of day had it happened.

[Jeremy Igo]

God I hope so

Going crazy: not firing somebody after seven straight losses.

I saw Jourdan Rodrigue mention it in here Q&A on the Athletic. She said Tepper was furious.

Doubt it, Tepper is too busy trying to turn our team into an amusement park, all these renovations and upgrades not gonna mean squat if we cant get people in to watch the games. People go to see a winning team.

I don't see that happening from Tepper. I suspect they likely had a meeting of sorts at some point thereafter Mon or Tues.

It's Tepper's show and he does not strike me the least little bit as the Jerry Jones type.

Plus Ron knows the deal. He is trying every maneuver possible to salvage the season and his job. 

Let's be honest, his defense is just too damn porous.  I am sure Rivera, Hurney and Tepper addressed all of this after last season. I give Ron and Hurney credit for the massive changes made. I think Tepper realizes the gaping holes with our roster.

Going nuclear is not what I would associate with Tepper's disposition. He is quite measured and analytical.

I do believe this however, the man will move swiftly with change.

Tepper doesn't strike me as a guy that enjoys being embarrassed.

It's hard for me to imagine Tepper going crazy. He seems even tempered and more intellectual than emotional, but what fan would know much of anything about his personality anyway. I can't think of any person who enjoys being embarrassed.

I know people who worked at Goldman with Tepper....

....trust me when I tell you "going nuclear" is in his personal playbook.

I have no details on the situation with Ron, and certainly don't think "going nuclear" is a regular happening --- but it's definitely in the playbook.

we often make the mistake because we see some person talk on TV that we actually know what they are about...

public personas are just that.   we do it all the time w/ players and celebrities.  Tepper is a local celebrity.

I'll believe it once leaks start to emerge 

[JARROD]

Tepper will end up hiring someone everyone else will hate that turns out to be coach of the year.

that was how he handled investments... doing what others say is stupid.

which coach fits that mold?

I remember hearing a story about Tepper throwing a breast implant at one of his employees while going nuclear. Like most self-made men he has a low tolerance for failure. 

Hard to build our brand when we're getting our poo pushed in like that.
