I think that an attorney who actually deals in property and contract law would be able to give us better insight than Huddlers using it for fodder to berate Tepper. 

It's not like the man is going broke or something. He's just doing what rich people do when things don't go their way I'd imagine.

Remember when he bragged about how it was gonna be bigger and better and more advanced than the Avengers headquarters?  🤣🤣🤣

And someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the original story was that York Co./Rock Hill defaulted and that's why building was stopped.  So, if that was the case, how tf does Tepper's real estate firm owe them money after the settlement?

My guess it's to pay off contractors that are caught up in this debacle. How and why the two state entities are being reimbursed is a mystery.  It could be to pay their contractors involved in this? 

In any case it was the right thing to do on his part regardless of RH's part in it.

Tepper could afford to do this on his own just as other developers do. The infrastructure outside of Tepper World is entirely up to the state/county, however it works in SC. If he counted the state to kick in money in advance on a handshake deal with Rock Hill then he hasn't done business with government before.

From what Erik Spanberg says…everyone is getting paid what everyone is owed.

Charlotte business journal paints it as resolution

Huddle Norms take it as sky r falling.

Im going with business journal.

Odd given that the team he used to be a part of isn't as big on the fancy stuff and tends to concentrate more on the actual football side of things.

It's almost like he can't learn anything and doesn't have any common sense.

He has been a disappointment from day 1 here, I'm actually not 100% sure what he could have done worse, outside of trying to move the team.

the contractors and York County make sense.  It's what they were owed and listed at. 

if I am not mistaken, did Tepper's folk list RH as like a $750 creditor awhile back.  I would just be curious how less than a thousand dollars turned into $20 million.

As I recall though, not paying back those things was one of the reasons they filed bankruptcy in the first place.

(hence the lawsuits)

So after all the talk about how we were going to have this amazing state-of-the-art practice facility that would be the envy of the league and have a bunch of other neat stuff around it, back to the status quo.

No matter how you spin it, that's kind of embarrassing.

Definitely not what anybody would call "winning"...

They filed bankruptcy so they don't have to pay for other contracts they signed for future work.  They never said they weren't going to pay for work done. They said from the beginning that want to pay everyone who is owed.  But there was probably 500mil more of contract that were awarded for work on site that was never started and if they didn't file bankruptcy, those with contracts could come after their money.  Chapter 11 is a finances reorg to pay of debts and cancel contracts.

GTRE also says $20M will be available to city of Rock Hill, stemming from the sale of the 240-acre property 

Can someone translate why they doing that 

If Rock Hill accepts payment, there is probably no lawsuit. A STFU and go away parting gift. It would cost more in time and lawyer fees to drag this on.

I looked back at some of the original stories but don't see any mention of future projects.

Did see this regarding the lawsuit (link)

York County has filed a lawsuit against several of Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper’s organizations and the city of Rock Hill over the “misappropriation” of $21 million in funds tied to the team facility that was under construction in Rock Hill.

County leaders allege in the lawsuit the Tepper Defendants “improperly utilized these funds on their failed vanity project, the Carolina Panthers’ headquarters and practice facility.”

“Both the City and the Tepper Defendants have harmed York County and its taxpayers, and the County should be made whole,” court documents state.

They were seeking 21 million ar rhe time, and the story now says Tepper's company is willing to pay them 20 million.

Offering one million less does sound like kind of a 'f--k you' move.

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      By Panthero · Posted

      Given that the immediate impact we need at edge. We almost certainly address that in Free agency, not in the draft. Same with Linebacker, unless Styles or Allen is still there at 19. I think the same for OT.  What is the position that we could draft in the 1st round and get immediate help in the first is how im approaching their decision-making  I know ill get dragged for this, but im thinking they go DT in the first. A guy that can play right away and be a complement to D.Brown to wreak havoc at the LOS.   So unless a top tier LB is there, I think DT will be the move.

      Cam Newton & Steve Smith Sr. break the silence after 10 years

      By ok2h8pep · Posted

      I think people forget that by his last season Steve Smith had the ass and he played like it - and for no really good reason other than that other stars were emerging on the team and he didn't want to share the spot light.  He was more of a locker room distraction than he was worth. He went on to have great performances with the Ravens' but G-man made the right move allowing him to move on from here.  I personally think it was addition by subtraction and we don't have a super bowl run with Smith on the roster. Steve Smith remains a narcissist who I've never seen internalize his own culpability when it comes to his relationships with others - it's always somebody else's fault as to why he was forced to act like an asshole. This video is a product ad.  I'm cringed that either of these two Panther greats are party to it.

      I think the ‘issue’ here is that we had two guys that clashed for several reasons. In some ways they were different, but in other ways they had a lot in common, and sadly they couldn’t see the forest for the trees. Sometimes when you have two people like that together they are either going to love or hate each other, and if it’s the latter, you need someone to mediate and hope the two individuals are capable of putting their differences aside for the common good. In this instance, they couldn’t find a way to move forwards together because I don’t think either guy wanted to play second fiddle to the other. This video basically said neither guy had the tools to bridge that gap and mend that fence, and perhaps also were unwilling to give an inch at that stage in their lives and careers. So a divorce, while unfortunate, was always likely. Do we win the Super Bowl with Smitty and Cam? Well, it’s one of life’s big what ifs for us Panthers fans.
