Sure, but you only get the stadium. You don’t get the team or the land it sits on. Just a building that can only be used for one thing. 
 

Congrats, you now own the sports equivalent of Eastland mall.

The point, he would NEVER in a million years sell that stadium at that price....ever, but he wants the county to value it at that amount.  How much is a new stadium to build these days?

He is just flexing his muscle, and the county will cave eventually.

Value doesn’t come from what someone would sell something for, it’s what someone else would buy it for. 
 

Would anyone buy a nfl stadium without owning the land or team? If so, would they pay $400 or $87 mil for it. 
 

Honestly, without the team or land the building (as is) is worthless. It would cost tens of millions to tear down or repurpose.

The county values the property at what they think is a fair value, it can go up and down as the economy and real estate market change, but in no world is that stadium only worth 87M.  You have to look at more than what it would be worth to someone who doesn't own a football team, and value it as if someone who does on a football team uses it.

Do you think that Tepper would sell the stadium for 87M when he doesn't have another stadium ready for the team to occupy?

So the Chiefs, in a smaller, colder, older, more decrepit city (in a much smaller two state region), can draft Kareem Hunt and Tyreek Hill, and trade for Frank Clark, AND play in a stadium built in 1972, AND be the Super Bowl favorite, and NOT need a new stadium.

And the Panthers need a new stadium, despite having one 24 years younger than Arrowhead, despite force feeding the masses GARBAGE football after allowing their franchise DE to not only be stolen away, but spat on on his way out?

Wow.

Hey a counter example!

Now do Atlanta, LA, Dallas...

What does having another stadium have to do with a tax assessment?  You think the assessors are supposed to take something like that into account?

They are supposed to give it fair market value, no different than a hospital, or government agency building.

Replacement cost has to come into play there.

If the stadium were destroyed tomorrow, could Tepper build it back to it's current state at 87M?  No, not close.

He is trying to purposefully devalue the stadium to keep from paying his taxes.

No replacement cost is not a factor.

Of course he is avoiding taxes.

The entire point is that it's worth a hell of a lot more to Tepper than 87M, there is no way in hell he would sell it for that, simply no way.

Pay your taxes Tep, you can afford it.

Buffalo, New Orleans, Chicago, Green Bay, Jacksonville.

The LA Coliseum is literally a century old.  The old Texas Stadium WAS A DUMP.

THIS SUNDAY’S SUPER BOWL (where Tyreek Hill and Frank Clark will be front and center) is being played in a stadium a decade older than BOA (considered extremely state of the art at the time).

If you are talking resale value its worth scrap. If Tepper builds a new stadium elsewhere there is almost no use for BofA.

Happy....now, right now, before a stadium has been started, which would take 2 years.

He would need to play football at NCSU or Clemson (good luck) or some other nonsense....point is, at this moment, that stadium is worth a hell of a lot more than 87M to David Tepper.

LA is building a $2B stadium.

Buffalo definitely wants a new stadium. So does the Jacksonville owner. And they will get one. So will we.

That's not how tax assessments work. You are ping-ponging between resale value and esoteric worth.

    • After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.
    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
