In-between having lunch once a week with David Tepper, right?

No, never met him (but he was a customer of our firm).

The public funds are for the infrastructure. 

The more you know....

My take it was an agreement to reimburse Tepper for building the infrastructure the state would take over.  Otherwise they would get it for free, much like NC does on smaller developments.  Something on this scale is a small city.  The town would make money off the utilities and from taxes levied on everyone but Tepper. 

I'm sure I'm missing a lot of benefits to the county and state to line their pockets. But it's not unusual.

To be frank! The people with criticism of Tepper Sports & Entertainment for terminating the previous agreement have to realize before they can agree on a new proposal the previous has to be terminated! Terminating the previous agreement shows that Tepper/Tepper Sports & Entertainment is ready to sit-down and iron out a new agreement!

It’s the billionaire way of doing things. If you don’t like the first deal then just make a new one and screw some people over in the process to save a few dollars.

The blame game is now in full force. SC politicians are blaming Tepper for taking 80M of their money.  Called him a "narcissistic ego driven" owner who has billed the taxpayer's for 80 million.  This is going to get interesting. 

This was on the local SC news station just now.

There will be a lawsuit.  NFL has communicated many times prior that this is something they are trying to avoid.  I can assure you the NFL is looking into it as well.

Tepper has been a massive bust as NFL owner and has been clowned by reporters.

I thought I read that SC has yet to pay a dime for the construction. How did Tepper steal their money?

The SC legislator they stuck a microphone in front of said "they built an interchange to nowhere" so I assume it had to do with that.

what a tough situation to judge... one hand you have a bullhorned billionaire, and the other shitty polticians. First one to leak the contract might be the winner of public opinion....

 

Any Rock Hill citizens on here with a close opinion to this? After all your voice does matter in this situation.

Nonsense. 

He liked the 1st deal...but Rock Hill didn't follow through on their obligations. 

You completely misunderstood @razorwolf's insightful and accurate post.

      Lol Atlanta looks to have lost their young edge rusher, has no 1st round pick, a complete mess at QB, a new coaching staff… And we swept them this year. Says what they think of us.

      PFF Best Deep Ball Thrower Award

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I mean, you can only go so far with the propping up. When a guy's numbers are as bad overall as Bryce's you have to try to find specific niches to sell. It's just funny that they're honing in on where he's probably weakest to try to prop him up. Whether it's a pro-Bryce conspiracy or not, it echos my chief complaint about PFF's analysis for years. When your purely statistical analysis badly skews from the eye test of actually watching the games, it should be screaming at you that you need to modify your system not double down on it. PFF is awesome at compiling stats but their grade systems are highly flawed and they never seem to try to improve them.

      Then why is Byce also last in other PFF stats?  The deep ball thrower stat by PFF can simply be flawed vs some conspiracy trying to prop up a QB on a team that a former employee now works for.  Both of these guys were also hired AFTER the Panthers had already drafted Bryce.  Trying to prop him up with a made up stat while he struggled would be a detriment to their own team honestly.
