yup… what I’m referring to is do we know if he went out and searched for Glick? Or was this suggested by referral or sought out by his recruitment team?

We don’t know if he hand pick Glick. We do know that they have not worked together in the past and that tepper had an immediate appetite for pulling together a soccer club for Charlotte.

if his team served him glick based on their discussions and interview process, then we can’t say tepper hand picked him. There is a process to all hires, and we can’t 100% confidently say “glick was tepper’s guy” without insight into their hiring and recruitment process 

he had history with Hart bc they worked together in Pittsburgh. So you can argue that he hand picked Mike hart 

Excellent post 🫵.

That said, Tepper never had any "work" role in Pittsburgh just as Elliot Close as a 5% Panthers owner had no operating role whatsoever...

...5% owners are just along for the ride.

Obviously the access afforded by 5% owners likely gave Tepper an avenue to get to know certain Steelers exec's but Tepper lived and worked in NJ/NY and it's unlikely he really spent much time hanging around the halls at Steelers HQ 🤙.

The real question is how tepper gets any work done with you glued to his hip all day

I’m on vacation this week and been drinking all day, need a little wiggle room on names. 

also, if you think tepper went out and searched for Glick all by himself… then you are very disconnected from how agencies like TSE find their talent.  Calling my suggestion a huge stretch is a stretch in itself. Why would tepper spend weeks by himself searching for someone when he could hire professionals who are good at it to do it for him? That doesn’t sound very billionaire like….

Even if that scenario is true, who made the final decision?

For that matter, if Tepper has other people making those decisions, and those people are doing their jobs poorly, it's still ultimately falls on him.

He's the guy at the top, so the buck stops at his desk.

The bottom line here is that you're strangly looking for some kind of circumstance that absolves Tepper from blame for bad hires. Don't know why, but that's your thing right now.

Are you planning to apply the same method to clear Tepper of blame for hiring Matt Rhule?

maybe the billionaire should of taken your advice when he was head coach searching.  But instead it was just him Marty Hurney rushing and then doing a complete brain dead contract on top of that lol.   Then let him bring in an all college staff lol. 

I mean, Tepper could of used google and done a better job when it came to that hire and all that went into it.

The part in bold I agree with and I alluded to in my previous posts. 
 

Tepper is accountable for everything that happens at TSE and BoA… there is no denying that. I’m not absolving Tepper. I am adding the perspective that he didn’t make this decisions in isolation and that it’s very possible that the people he has hired came highly recommended. That’s it.

 

please stop using your hate for Rhule and tepper to create a narrative that I’m “absolving” tepper. I have denied that multiple times already and attempted to explain myself, but you seem to be stuck on the notion that I am protecting tepper. From my experience working with TSE … Tepper isn’t as close as people perceive and portray here.  That’s it.

 

i think any continuation of this conversation is just going to be a circle jerk.

Ah yes, the "you just hate them" argument.

Congrats. You've managed to place yourself on par with Sizzlebuzz.

As far as how your arguments read, pretty sure I'm not the only one interpreting it as defending Tepper. But I suppose you'll say the others just "hate" him as well.

You’ve openly stated that you despise Rhule and tepper. If you don’t then I recant my sbove statement. You are really trying to turn this convo into a thing. 


I’m moving on from this.

I've never openly stated any such thing.

I think both of them are terrible at their jobs, but as I've stated many times being terrible at your job is not a reason to hate someone.

Okay - bc its been five minutes and I can’t edit my above post… correction to my word usage of hate to “despise” or “dislike” or anything synonymous with how you feel about them.

Whatever's synonymous with "think he's a terrible owner".

No personal feelings involved...

I some elsewhere that they basically kicked out a flea market and neighboring skate park for this development. That in itself is super lame 

The city did A while ago it just wasn’t being enforced. That’s why it’s become a hot topic at city Council meetings now trying to find them somewhere to go this is more political than anything.

    • No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.
    • We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks. 
    • I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
