The Big Cat didn’t say a word for 9 years…

…was there a similar level fretting and gnashing of teeth during that time?

Heck Mike Jordan’s Bobcats have posted 5 consecutive losing seasons and he hasn’t said boo (and I understand why), don’t ever hear any whining about that

Seems to be a Tepper thing…

Yeah don’t come out at the start of buying the franchise running your mouth and going to tailgates etc. He did all that stuff but is too embarrassed to talk or show his face. Dude just got sot somewhere and wonder how you was all wrong about Watson getting traded lol. You don’t know poo!

Yes, there actually was.

Plenty of people thought Richardson should speak, though it came to be understood that he never would.

As far as the Hornets, I'm not a basketball fan but there are some on the board who could probably answer.

So noted.

Will be interesting to see how Tepper reacts (or doesn't)...

He fired Hurney only to hand the reins over to a college coach with no NFL experience.

That doesn't show improvement.

Oh, so he didn't do what you like so he owes you an answer?

 

Who has the reins isn't even known really, you guys just speculated and decided that Rhule was in charge. Just like now some people have decided Rhule isn't in charge...but some people still think he is in charge. We don't know what has or hasn't changed, but looking at way they have operated this off season is promising and shows some ability to adjust thinking when something didn't work.

I'm a lot less concerned with whether he does what I want than I am over the fact that his results have consistently sucked.

In 2019, Cam got hurt.  In 2020 and 2021 CMC got hurt. 

Let me make a prediction, if our #1 offensive weapon goes down in 2022, we're going to suck again.

@Panthers #ScottFitterer @DanMorganJr @SamirTSuleiman @DavidTepper5 @___KP1 IMO I believe it's being disrespectful to "Rock Hill, York County, and the people of York County," that a response hasn't been released concerning the Panthers HQ and facilities to their new proposal!

And the Panthers has been my #1 team for the last 25 years!

 @DavidTepper5 isn't that David Tepper.

I don't think the Panthers only even has a Twitter account.

I think Big Tepp is gonna talk...

...soon.

Bear in mind that he's going to be trying to sell public funding for a new stadium in a few years as well. Keeping mistrust and resentment at a minimum between now and then would probably be a good idea.

Unless its a public referendum (and I can’t immediately think of one that was in cases like this), he’ll get his stadium.  Billionaires EASILY know how to “speak” to politicians for their support.

And you know how “the public” will punish those politicians?  By re-electing them.

Rinse-repeat anywhere in this country.

Citizens these days are fundamentally stupid.

Don't care what he says or doesn't say. I just want wins next year.  Words from the owner, coach, gm etc... are irrelevant.

Hey man, I get it. He painted a pretty picture. But the harsh reality is, he's back pedaling now. Trying to save face.

Nope.

Back-pedaling is another form of being vocal (just “taking back” what you previously said or did).

He isn’t back-pedaling… he’s IGNORING.

Back-pedaling can at times be observed as an admission of error and self-correction.

Ignoring? That’s just a sign of disrespect.

Sure they do...

...to the tune of 62,000 each & every year, they call 'em PSL's.

Then they get sold to opposing fans because of the lackluster product on the field
