I have a theory that Sizzle is a troll alt created by Igo for clicks and entertainment.  It makes his posts more enjoyable anyway...

Pretty sure Sizzle is our old friend Sanjay.

Same MO: gets fixated on things (two TE sets, the Appaloosa Model), wants people to think he's smarter, responds as if he's proven something when he obviously hasn't, etc.

We need to bring back our old friend Alejandro Lustra. He may have been an insufferable PITA, but he made things more entertaining than Fire Rhule every day.

It takes time to turn around a complex business organization like an NFL team (a point clearly lost on you 🤦‍♂️).

In baseball parlance we are in the top of the 2nd inning with no outs and a 2-2 count…

…get back to me during the 7th inning stretch on Big Tepp’s “record” 🤣👊.

"Turning around" would imply the business was struggling prior.

The Panthers were historically a franchise that stayed away from the bottom in favor of the middle with a couple blips to the very top.

The franchise needs "turning around" after all the errors were made by Tepper himself. While I am glad they brought back Wilkes and brought in McAdoo, who I'm high on, the bar has been set so very low since Tepper acquired the franchise four years ago, middle ground would be a big step up. 

Turning things around to crawl back to up to the middle from self inflicted wounds is hardly worth a slow clap.

Plenty of teams have produced winning programs in less time.

"You are what your record says you are" was your standard.

By that standard (again, as applied by you) David Tepper is, after four years under his watch, a sh-tty owner. No amount of attempted spin will change that.

I'd guess that he might not like hearing that you consider him terrible at his job.

You are clueless 🤦‍♂️...

...carry on blowhard, you probably need another 30 posts  before midnight to keep up with your daily average 🤣...

To defeat you in debate generally only takes one.

As soon as you realize you have no response you start replying with stuff like this, so...

The fact remains, turnarounds are complex and time consuming...

...if you had any business expertise or experience of any kind you'd understand this but in fact, you are clueless...

...lemme guess, stay at home sloth 🦥 ?

The fact remains that football is not business.

The fact also remains that others have done it in less time, but Tepper still hasn't done it at all.

Heck, the team hasn't even shown improvement yet. If anything, they've gotten worse.

Which means again, using the standard that you applied, Tepper is a loser.

(and here I thought you liked him)

Yeah the team has been worse than before under Tepper. I think Tepper still has a chance to be a good owner, but Sizzle logic shows us “you are what your record is.” Guess Jimmy G is the next great QB and so is PJ Walker (never lost), while Tepper is terrible…

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
