Lol, you believe everything the media says.  In a related story, Jeffery Epstein killed himself and OJ Simpson is innocent.

LOL..."the media" didn't say a single word, not one. 

No anonymous "sources", not a "I know a guy who knows a guy" stab in the dark (like virtually all Panthers "reporters" barf up these days) ...

...but rather a direct statement from Joe Lockhart who was EVP of Communications & Govt. Affairs & lead spokesman for the NFL League Office at the time. 

Mr. Lockhart's resume is impeccable (includes 2+ years as White House Press Secretary for President Clinton) and his integrity is beyond reproach.

Feel free to keep your head squarely buried in the sand...

Seriously though, how flat out stupid do you have to be to pull a stunt like this?

One would have to be mindblowingly "stupid" to "pull a stunt like this"...

...Snyder's clearly a doosh but do you really believe he's that stupid?

The 💰💵 involved would be chump change...couldn't amount to more than $3 million and to think Snyder would take such a risk is completely illogical -- almost seems too good to be true huh? 🧐

This is hilarious!!!!!!

Anyway, I know what the 'official narrative' was.  Richardson resigned in shame and the NFL graciously excepted his resignation.  Remember, Jerry was doing what all NFL owners do when under the spotlight, they launch an internal investigation.  There was no mention of Jerry selling the team up to the point the League stepped in.  In a stunning turn of events, once the League stepped in, Jerry suddenly felt compelled to sell the team.  Jerry loved this organization and it would have taken more than public scrutiny for him to suddenly let go.  The misdeeds had already been leaked to the media, so the airing of the dirty laundry wasn't the reason for the sudden urge to sell.

I bet you think Tom Brady coming back had nothing to do Bruce Arians stepping away too.  You know the official narrative out of the Bucs organization is Bruce decided it was time to hand over the reins to someone else.  The timing of Bruce stepping aside and Tom un-retiring was purely coincidence.

I mean, no scandals occurred during those years, right?   Also press secretaries are renown for their 100% honesty.  I'm the delusional one though, lol! Gullible must be your middle name. 

Look, Jerry may have had a sudden change of heart, but I don't buy it.  I'm not sure when you started to follow the Panthers, but I have from the very beginning.  The man was all Panthers all the time. He literally lived for this team.  Just because he had some non-disclosure settlements come to light wasn't enough for him to sell the team.  Again, the details were already  leaked.  If he was so embarrassed by the media report, why didn't he sell right away?  Why did he try to fix the situation internally? Once the League stepped in, why the sudden change of heart to cut and run instead of fight for beloved organization.

The NFL isn't run by a troop of boy scouts.  Dan Snyder and Jerry Jones have plenty of dirt out there.  Some owners they will go to bat for, and others, not so much.

What were the exact dates of the groundbreaking Sports Illustrated report/article...

...and The Bigg Kitty's announcement that he was selling?

You're the one with your head in the sand. You may be the dumbest and most gullible person on this site. Keep defending billionaires that don't give two shits about you

The published date of the article was about a week before he said he was going to sell in mid-December of 2017.  However, the organization knew of this was before going to print; this story wasn't out of left field.  Again, Jerry was initially going to do what he need to to to keep the team, but once the League office got involved, he changed his mind.  Coincidence?  Sure....

      I would be quite surprised if he got more than a fine. Flopping has long been out of hand in the NBA. There were definitely some Heat players doing extra selling fouls. LaMelo seems to be getting quite a bit of hate on social media for the Bam injury though. And it is fair to wonder how the next opponent might defend him going forward knowing what happened. I don't think we can just be homers and dismiss it entirely especially after all the complaints we've made about the Pistons in particular. I think this group better be prepared for a very physical game on Friday.

      When you look closely at the play it was careless from Melo but bang bang full speed I don’t think it was intentional or dirty or deserving of a foul. Bam’s off balance momentum was already carrying him towards a fall and even if Melo didn’t touch him it may have had the exact same outcome. And honestly I think he did try to sell it more when he felt LaMelo’s hand. Dudes arms flopped back instead of bracing for the fall. Sucks he got hurt but a suspension would be ridiculous and an awful look for the league. Fine and move on

      Sure but it literally would be benching him lol, and it would kill his confidence. He’ll get back in a rhythm, kid just had an all time great rookie season and led the league in 3s, you gotta stick with him as starter. But yeah I’m all for getting some more lineups throughout the game with Coby and Melo   and yeah Miles’ block and Coby and others jumping him in celebration was fuging epic
