Genuine question: has this team/organization been more of a shitshow on or off the field the last few years? It’s getting old. 

No. Never thought my love for the panthers would ever be in question….

*queue David Tepper - the one guy who has already made me lose significant interest and borderline not even wanting to watch them anymore.

Teppers first wrong move was going to crack hill. Now they want their money back because they couldn't come up with all the money and tanked the project. Got to love how they get to run the investigation. I'm defending tepper on this one because he really didn't do anything wrong. It was Rockhill who couldn't come through. If they would have just put the training facility in Fort Mill this wouldn't have happened. Rockhill definitely fleeced him now they are trying to set up a civil situation where they can go after his personal money. 

 

Long story short welcome to local corruption and how it's never the governments fault.

this isn't Rock Hill with this investigation.  This is York County.

So he gave up on a bad hire after 2.5 years, that viewpoint effectively ignores the 2 years of treading water under his directionless leadership, until he came up with his master plan. 

and He still has no QB. I think the acquisition of Darnold showed the priority level, but it came to nothing and only desperation type moves followed, from Cam to Mayfield. 
Anyhow he still has no QB, but he has a soccer team and a lot of concerts and stuff.

The county sounds like the one party not in on the BS. So it's Tepper and RH, which he went to to do it his way. Ohh and his company was to be the bondholder to avoid state regulatoey oversight. With the way Tepper wanted to do this deal it was always going to happen this way, whereever he found a town that would do it his way.

He is getting his hand slapped while in the cookie jar. The reality is the sooner this is over, hopefully he learned some things, the sooner we can get on with what comes next. Maybe some day we will have more than a practice bubble.

One gets the idea from history that the world doesn't revolve until Tepper wakes up in the morning.............

........its one big Ego here folks.

He was slighted on a wall street investment banking powerhouse once in a promotion and eventually when he got to the top he bought the multimillion dollar vacation home of the person who initially slighted him and then proceeded to have it leveled and then had another house built on that same plot twice the size of it...

...and if that doesn't reveal who you are dealing with you are blinded by his ownership of "your team".

Plus, taking real grass off the playing field at the stadium and replacing it with turf that the players hate and say causes injuries.

I assume you are not in the KC area, as plenty of people said Clark Hunt was a crappy owner. And Tepper's issue is that he has little good to counterbalance the overwhelmingly bad/unpopular of his tenure with no real sign of that changing. He's earned it thus far.

I am not saying you are wrong about the fans take on Clark Hunt in KC but it would be hard to find any NFL fanbase that didn't have certain people that were critical of the team owner.

I think there’s something because Tepper went from “not my fault” to settle with both RH and York county for whatever they asked to sweep this whole thing under the rug.  Now the state is coming in and wants piece of pie as well.

Tepper will end up basically paying for this practice facility without having a practice facility lol.

When did Tepper agree to settle with SC for 'whatever they asked for?' I haven't seen that anywhere.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Basbear · Posted

      Brother, I don't want to drop the amount of rage I have about BY and the fuging Pickett signing....when murray was free, tua was free, lance was about the same cost. But you know during practice when other teammates see and hear the passing for any of them compared to BY, he may cry right then.... It does feel like Dan and Tillis were told "make BY work, by any means". You recall the first plan was to drop 163 million on OGs to protect the little fellow.......then drafting WRs and they even signed his buddy WR this FA period..... I just go back to Dan Morgan wanting instill competition throughout the roster and T-H-A-T is your QB room ??? bloody hell, what a joke and disrespect to the whole roster outside that group....

      Id drop this in here- I fully believe nearly ALLL the Tmac hate leading up to the draft came from the Panthers..... There was plenty and it was believable, cause many did just that. There was huge questions and about 85% of the huddle took the cheese hate.  I do have this too- Banks has a broken feet and a history of feet/ankle issues. If he didn't, 19 would have been fair landing spot. Of course, but Prince spoke highly of him in a Twitter post....former teammates and all, but he still made the post and I haven't seen other players prince did so for.... Maybe the 51st on banks, but maaaaaannnn big men with broken feet broken its feels like it never ends well. I mean after brain, spine, I think Feet are the career killer leader.  Draft DL feels weak in every way.    Last morsel- there's a weak rumor of Panthers trading for DT Payne out on the vine....(his price I feel kills it, but new contract solves that for trades)....

      If we go all in and sell out with Bryce as our QB, it will even more entrench the idea that Tepper is at minimum running the QB room for me. Now i could be wrong and Dan really is that confident in Bryce all by himself, but nothing this team has done in the past 3 offseasons leads me to believe that there hasnt been some noise from big T. He's admitted that he walks through the office making his opinion known. To me, Bryce's output has just not generated that kind of confidence that we are playoff worthy other than against the Rams. Against the SB champs, just damn.
