Would you preferred Ben Navarro bought Panthers in 2018 ?

I would prefer a guy like Navarro with an attachment in our states. We need this identidy from the two Carolinas.

Navarro was the guy a lot of people wanted, me included.

I did have a concern though. Specifically, that he seemed too friendly with the Richardson family (Jerry;s son Mark actually endorsed him). It made me worry that he might listen to Jerry regarding team direction and such, like keeping Marty Hurney around as GM for example.

But then of course Tepper did that anyway 🤬

Navarro has a real successful sports background with tennis and his dad being a legit football coach, ties to the area and seems more likely to have hired a consultant and put the right football people in place and just sat back and let them do their jobs. So yeah 100% would've preferred Navarro. You never know how it would've turned out with him but we can already see Tepper ain't it so far.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
