Nonsense 🤦‍♂️

only because you choose to assume everything RH says is false.  

RH said they repeatedly asked Tepper for needed info for the bonds and Tepper Sports was not providing it....then Tepper Sports was upset for RH not having the bonds. 

and Tepper Sports hasn't said that claim was false. 

then RH claims Tepper Sports said not to issue them and wanted to pursue other avenues. 

and Tepper Sports hasn't said that claim was false. 

and that is just some basic stuff that has been said.  We don't know all these talks.  But it sure sounds like the newb football owner operates like a newb builder too.  

So again, I say we need more info before you absolve Tepper from being a player in helping create this shitshow.  Tepper Sports has been asked about stuff like this.  They have refused comment.   Yet somehow you know the answers.  Please feel free to share how you know what Tepper won't talk about.

Tepper was following a well worn path, as were the politicians.

Both sides know it's not well received by the taxpayers, and neither care.  One holds a responsibility to the populace, the other does not.

Politicians have a REAL hard time saying no, and voters have no problem putting these losers into office time and again, only to further waste the taxpayer money.  I have had an issue with this for as long as it's been happening, have always said...just say no.

well, that is my issue.  And people defending some billionaire in this scenario just isn't something I am cool with.   He intentionally came into SC to work with the SC Gov., State House and local politicians to fleece taxpayers.  

Yes, voters have to hold the politicans accountable.  Ultiamtely that is what has to happens and we do a poor job of it.  But folks defending Tepper are part of the problem too.  Guys like Tepper are a problem. 

and the real "problem" with the project, is probably the fact some local politicans refused to keep bending the knee to a billionaire continuing to lean and fleece them.    I assume COVID drastically changed the numbers and Tepper wasn't going to budge.    This isn't even about the Panthers at that point.  Just an uber rich dude doing the type stuff that got him obscenely wealthy.

Except now a York county official is saying Rock Hill has been lying. York county wants to bypass RH altogether to make the deal happen.

So what makes one county officials word more credible than one city officials word?  

RH official was talking about his direct dealings with Tepper Sports.  2 sides of that convo.  RH's and Tepper Sports.    How does the county official know RH is lying?   

I would assume the accusation the RH offical made would actually be pretty easy to prove if it were true or made up.  I mean, ultimately if Tepper Sports wasn't providing the needed info there is going to be a paper trail.   Which is why I said time and more info would be needed before you people give Tepper a complete pass in this clusterfug. 

*unless there is new info I assume this was a comment made during the pause several weeks ago and isn't something new out this week.

This is new. See my post one page back from a few hours ago.

York county is a neutral 3rd party. I trust them over a RH official who is trying to cover his ass.

Read between the lines a little. When you see a county publicly cutting out and not backing one of their towns, you know something is up.

I wouldn't call him a neutral 3rd party.  Or York County.  I mean, they all have skin in the game. 

From the very beginining, he was one of the biggest promoters of this project.

There's direct quotes from the city manager and mayor saying as such.  

and reporters went to Tepper Sports and they refused to comment.  It's literally just the reporting of what has been said and not said. 

he calls it fake news because everything that RH says he chooses to believe is all lies.  It might be.  But there claims if true.....would be documented.  Which was the point made.  So until all the details come out you can't remove Tepper completely from this given the accusations and his refusal to address them. 

Tepper has proven he is awful outside of his lane.  And this project is also outside his lane.  He hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt that all accusations against him are false especially when he refuses to address them.

      A comparison of QBs drafted #1 overall

      By Icege · Posted

      "Bryce Young did not have a good rookie season compared to other QBs selected #1 overall. My eyes say so." But... why don't the facts support this? WOA THERE NOW! Whether you're a Stroud Boy sitting down and idling by or a devout member of BrySIS, I come in peace. The purpose of this write-up is to explore the validity of a common complaint echoed by disgruntled Panthers fans. This isn't proving that Bryce Young is without fault for 2023-2024. It isn't demanding that everybody only cheer for him and never criticize. Hell, it isn't even a "Bryce is good" post. It is just a statistical look at BY9's rookie season compared to other QBs taken at #1 overall. A quick note on methodology: All of the data was pulled from Pro-Football-Reference.com, which did not have advanced stats for any QB entering the league before 2017 (Hurries, Hits, Pressures, Pressure %, Drops, and Drop %). Going back to 2000, there have been 18 QBs selected #1 overall . Blacked out boxes are for missing/invalid data. Below is the comparison: Perhaps the only thing that Panthers fans can agree on is that, despite fears regarding his size, Bryce Young can take the punishment that an NFL defense can dish out over the course of a season. While he did miss one game, the only QB that's started more games their rookie season is Trevor Lawrence. This was in spite of BY9 being sacked, hurried, hit, and pressured more than any other rookie since 2000 except David Carr (who is also #1 for fumbles and fumbles lost, where as Bryce is #2 in both of those categories). The one stat that Young did lead in was pressure percentage... No other QB in the last 25 years has been pressured more during their rookie campaign than Bryce Young. Even with all of that working against him, his body still held up.  This isn't anything new to anybody with a functioning set of eyes. Even people that think Bryce should still order from the kid's menu will admit that having eight different left guards and nine different right guards is probably going to make an already difficult situation for a rookie more difficult. This is where mobility helps bails teams out, and an additional area of concern for detractors. We won't see Young doing the same thing we saw Cam do such as carrying a defensive lineman downfield on his back or steamrolling a defensive back into the dirt. We did see him scramble though enough to put up the 7th highest rushing yards for a QB selected at #1 since 2000. Also not new to fans was the underperformance of the weapons fielded by the team last season. Scheme, playcalling, and inability to separate have been beaten to death but what if I told you that the group also had the third most drops for the third highest drop percentage out of all other teams supporting a #1 rookie QB? To say that the entire offense surrounding Bryce failed him is an understatement, and it reflects in the stats. With that context in mind, let's dive into the passing stats... Completions: 5th (315) Attempts: 6th (527) Completion %: 7th (59.8%) Passing Yards: 9th (2,877) Passing TDs: 11th (#11) INTs: 12th (10)     Having the fifth most completions, sixth most attempts, seventh highest completion percentage, and ninth most passing yards all place Bryce Young in the top half of the sample group. He was also 12th in INTs, meaning that despite the constant duress he was under while trying to find an open target that Bryce was not turning the ball over as frequently as other QBs did their rookie year. Being 11th in passing TDs is frustrating, but it's hard to get into the redzone with all of the aforementioned issues as well as the not-so-silent drive killer: penalties. Carolina was #4 in the league this past season for pre-snap penalties with 45. That means that every game had two to three false start penalties. In 2022, teams averaged 10.9 drives per game. If the same holds true for 2023, the Panthers averaging over ~2.64 false starts a game means that 25% of their offensive drives are being marched back five yards. Are these all just excuses in the end and Bryce will never be able to contend for the UFC Light Heavyweight Title? Maybe. Will it make some fans any less insufferable? Definitely not. What it will do though is help make the last two hours of a three hour meeting go by much, much faster. Hope y'all have been well. Keep Pounding!

      Nate Tice article on Bryce Young

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      He has a lot to work just to be an average starter and I dont see it happening.  Lots of blame to go around for last season but Bryce was a big part of that, even in the GB game he was dropping too far back and allowing the pass rush to tee off on him.  He cant use the same little quirks that he used in college to overcome his size in the NFL.
