What is Tepper seeing that nobody else here sees?

[Mr. Scot]

Whenever someone invokes the old "billionaire equals smart" trope, it's a good time to remember that guys like Daniel Snyder and Woody Johnson are super rich too.

Oh I know I can tell since he took over team. All he ever wanted was a soccer team, tell me different.

He’ll make far more money from the panthers than that little soccer team will ever make him.

Tell me different.

You know what you know, but sometimes you don't know what you don't know.

That's the guy who doesn't care?

Doesn't matter a wit if he cares for all in the world if he is too arrogant, blind, ignorant, hardheaded, or plain stupid to see and do what should be done to make this team into a long term winning franchise.

In 2021, the franchise value came to 2.91 billion U.S. dollars.

Panthers are worth approximately 700 million more than they were when Tepper bought the franchise.

Some folks don't understand the difference between intelligence and aptitude.

I've got a friend who could take a computer apart and put it back together blindfolded in the dark with one arm tied behind his back. Suggest that he change the oil in his car himself through and watch his eyes glaze over.

Making money in business isn't the same as understanding football. Assuming that just because someone has done one they can also easily do the other shows a lack of understanding.

Don't tell me, tell Dave Tepper.

Yeah 50 million to Tepper is the equivalent of someone with 100k in the bank spending $312.50, literally.

People don't seem to grasp this.

I think Tepper is more fuggin greedy and tightfisted than most folks think.  I look at public giving by Michael Jordan compared to tight fisted fat fug tepper and see tepper as the loser.  I think hed sell this team down the river if he could make a dime on it.

Perhaps, but that wasn't the claim I was attempting to discredit.

Yeah, but that's like your opinion man.

There's a lot of things I'd like to tell him.

I'm pretty sure the Panthers have a comments box somewhere.

You should give it a shot.

You might get some SWAG for your trouble.

That, or a lifetime ban from the games.

Sorry for the semi snide reply,  but caring and being able to execute are two different things.  That is all I was trying to say.  He cares to make a poo ton of cash in pro football dealings, most probably will ( money begets more money ), but I do not think he has the smarts to have a perpetually winning franchise with the Panthers. Or possibly even a winning franchise period.  And I think winning to him probably means more money wise than actually winning games.
