David Tepper Still Won’t Talk

If you are going to start as an upfront and vocal figure in your sports team when you buy it and then hide when things go very badly then maybe it's time to buy some PR help to navigate being a public figure. How to speak NFL if you will. 

Then again if he hired well he wouldn't have to hide...

In my opinion, I don't fuging care if he talks or not, it doesn't change a damn thing. As long as decisions are being made to try and go in the right direction I don't care if he speaks.

So far we have done well bringing in experienced coaches to try and help Rhule handle the game (whether it does or he not and he gets fired we'll find out soon) and we have made some really good moves in FA. Now if we had stuck with the same exact staff and then didn't do much in FA THEN I'd have expected an answer.

Dude talked a LOT when he first came to town. Talked a real big game. If we ever fall back asswards into winning again he'll be singing like a bird again.

Bingo. Weak look to be out there like that and then vanish when the going get rough. Maybe he'll take something away from this and be less visible when the team (someday...) starts winning again.

This. Guy intentionally came across as a very visible, present, and available owner... one of the guys who you'd see popping up everywhere fans were and interacting with them. He was always available to and speaking with the media, trying to engage the fans. 

Since last year he's done none of that. Why? Got to assume he's either embarrassed about the product he's putting out there or he just doesn't care about the fans anymore.

I said when he didn't fire Rhule that I honestly think he's embarrassed and is afraid he'd just fug it up again so he's gonna do nothing and just go run and hide and hope things get better.

Lol haven’t you heard what the league thinks of our organization now. Y’all really don’t pay attention to anything do you?

If you referring to the anonymous NFL team scout/employee that said it, not sure if they speak for the league.

 

i mean if you look at the falcons and saints , they are both franchises in shambles right now. Between having suspended nfl players, criminals, player exodus, coach abandoning a franchise , turning their on their franchise qb to chase another criminal’s jock strap and fielding the absolute worst roster in football….

 

that’s a pretty rough track record for those two teams…

    • Look into that industry. And you also don't have to pick up the phone. 7 years and most debt is uncolectable as long as you never talk to the collectors. The collectors have so many illegal practices that an entire sub category of lawyers specialize is sueing debt collectors. It's a lot. To make billions in that industry makes it a lock. It's not an emotional statement. In the end the money doesn't care and neither does he. There are people that make a lot, millions upon millions, and then there are billionaires. If they didn't win the big loto chances are to make it to that level takes a certain kind of personality. The what they did to get there does matter. All of this is also documented if you want to take thr time to Google it. The credit industry is interesting and is very predatory.
    • This ain’t breaking news.  The return to field stats on ACLs are what they are…and this was talked about when we drafted him.   In season should be our first looks at him. 
    • I know I didn't play football at the highest level, but I was a rb for 3 years. To make the long story short my senior season I knew we had a chance to win state championship. The team we had the year before was led by our junior class. I sacrificed moving to a weaker position because I knew I had a more talented faster RB behind me. Cut the long story short we make it all the way to the last round before state championship. Early in the game I had a groin injury. But I didn't tell my teammates. I sucked it up and played until halftime. That was when my HC knew I could no longer help my team. Mind you this was in the mountains in Cherokee. It was ice cold the field felt like we were playing on cement. We would go on to lose that game by 40.    My thing is at least try to play through injuries. If you hurt let the coaches bring you out the game. I always had that mindset because that was how I was coached coming up. I would never milk injuries just because my team sucked. Especially when I know I was one of the better players on the team.   CMC a good guy off the field, but when I say fug him as a player I really mean it. He wasn't all in with the Panthers. I just can't respect that as a former football player.
