Since Tepper bought the team, his worth has increased to like $16 BILLION.  If he paid a coach $15 million per year, it would take 67 years before he ended up paying a single billion.  

I could give two poops what Tepper has to pay a coach.  I have no problem with folks getting rich fleecing Tepper.  Not my money, and it doesn't count on the cap.  Fug it all!

I have no doubt that Tepper is going to have the top offer out for Ben Johnson. The most money per year, probably will allow him to have a big say in the GM hire if Ben Johnson would prefer someone else and not Scott Fitterer and pitch him on a Miami style of approach where you have an offensive HC focus solely on the offense and play calling and have a top DC completely manage the defense.

Over $20 Billion now.  He’s currently the 90th richest person in THE WORLD.

We’ve all been to PARTIES with 90 people and weren’t the richest in the ROOM.

I don't think most folks grasp the massive gulf between millionaires and billionaires. $15M a year is a MASSIVE amount of money but it's pocket change to a billionaire.

If you made a dollar per second you'd be a millionaire in 12 days. It'd take you nearly 33 years to become a billionaire.

Tepper will be paying 3 head coaches for another two years, right? lol

I think he only had to pay Rhule like $5million because of the Nebraska contract offsetting a majority of the money. And the main reason he was owed anything was the escalating contract for Nebraska the the first couple years was less than what he would have made as the Panther's coach.

I thought Nebraska purposefully structured it so that Tepper would have to still pay a good bit of the early money.

David Tepper could buy Mark Cuban, Dan Snyder, and Robert Kraft.  COMBINED.

He's worth over $20B and it keeps going up every day.  He’s a billionaire to billionaires, insane.  He’s literally approaching Musk/Bezos space so I say spend it on our front office and coaching staff, let’s go…

Yeah, front office and staff is where spending big can make a real difference since there's no salary cap there. Go out and hire the best people available and GTFO of their way and let them do their jobs.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By CamWhoaaCam · Posted

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
