You think they'd tell the media before they told Ron?

No I think people who believe everything these Twitter hacks have to say is a joke. They get it right sometimes but most are batting well under 60%. And Tepper is his own guy no one knows what his options will be or what he truly wants but him

If you want to kill a snake, you cut off its head.

Bottom line: Tepper doesn't know poo about killin' snakes.

(Hopefully I'll be able to eat these words before long.)

Tastes like chicken.

Running over them with a lawnmower seems to work.

He's coming across like a meddler so far.

He's coming off like a concerned owner who cares about the business he just bought and wants to make it succeed.

Seriously, people want or expect someone to throw billions out to buy a team and then go hands off and not be involved? How unrealistic and stupid would that be?

One other thing about Tepper that I think pretty clearly comes out if you watch his video interview...

He seems to have an awful lot of contempt for Jerry Richardson.

Listen to him describe having to remake the business side of the Panthers (which he characterized as an unholy mess) and see if you agree.

Any second hand buyer of anything worthwhile is going to trash the original owner at the first sign of trouble. I’m not saying Richardson did much right on the business side, but I’d tread a little careful in denigrating everything the man did if I were Tepper.  For all his flaws, Richardson built an incredibly valuable and sustainable franchise in a city and region that, if we’re being honest, probably had no business having an nfl team at that time.  He instituted a psl system, while often criticized, that still allows for high attendance numbers even in a down year. 
 

Tepper may learn that lesson the hard way when he tries to force a new stadium down the city of Charlotte and This fanbases/psl owners throats.
