170 million is around 1% of his net worth. to put that into consideration, tons of people on this board are probably spending 15-20% of their net worth annually on an oversized truck they have no need for (that was purchased because they're insecure and decided to buy a personality) and would HAPPILY walk away from if they could. 

sunk cost is a thing too

Yes, its is only 1% but you know how rich people are with money, losing $100 is a big deal.

The one that I quoted.

i must have missed it in this thread, its 25 pages long... so pardon my oversight. 

I am just curious if you had an example of Tepper being petty. It would be interesting to read about how he is perceived as a petty person.

Meh, I think this all gets worked out.  I think Tepp went into this deal knowing this was going to happen.  I mean, who the hell thought RH could pony up $225m in the first place?  It's Rock Hill!!  Tepper is bluffing and he's sending a message to CLT to get ready and bend over.  Yeah, he could pull the plug and have some financial losses, but his and the team's image will take more of a hit than his pocket book if they do move on from RH, even though it's not their fault RH couldn't pay in the first place.

“billionaire” = “petty”

It’s a mutually inclusive condition, I’m surprised you didn’t know this 🤦‍♂️🤣.

Just so you know, billionaires also aren’t allowed to hold the other side to their contractual obligations during the execution of a business deal…

…if said deal gets sideways due to lack of performance by the other side — the billionaire is expected to simply keep moving forward and fund the other side’s obligations too.

These are only 2 of at least a dozen immutable laws/conditions codified in The Official Billionaire’s Behaviorsaurus as published by The Huddle Society of Billionaire Haters…

…carry on 👋👍

The news station in Spartanburg SC reported this morning that things have been worked out and construction is a go for the site.  Who knows who caved but I suspect it was SC officials. 

Probably the SC Governor meeting with Tepper yesterday. The state of SC is probably going to kick in to the project to get it done. That's my guess.

Yep, the Post and Courier tweeted (16 hours ago) that "Tepper is taking bids to have the steel beams removed"..sorry no link.

I think he will more than willing to walk away.  He will use it as a example for when he wants a new stadium.  He can always use it as a tax right off. 

Not having this complex in Rock Hill will at least make the threat of leaving Charlotte more plausible.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
