David Tepper appears to throw a drink at a jaguars fan

We don't have a "fan culture"? Keep Pounding and all the other cultural things is a lot more than many other teams have, especially for one founded so recently. It's also rather strange, since our crowd noise once shook the press box during the NFCCG and has been measured as high as 89 decibels (via https://www.soundprint.co/location/bank-of-america-stadium-charlotte-nc-32860), which would be a whopping 6 decibels behind the Eagles stadium's peak measurement of 95 and rate us solidly in the top half. Every team has dweebs that tell people to sit down, it happens when your stadium is marketed as a family environment. 


Trying to blame the fans for not unconditionally supporting a billionaire with no ties to the area, no care or regard for the team's previous culture (you talk about a "fan culture", remember how Tepper tried to take keep pounding out of games and replace it with a wolf of wall street chant? and what ever happened to the keep pounding drum?), who clearly has no impulse control and the mindset of a giant manchild as evidenced by this incident, and who has called OUR FANS basement dwellers on multiple occasions is nothing more than blind bootlicking. The "REAL FAN" bullshit is a scam that billionaires use to manipulate suckers out of their money and time for nonexistent fan cred. What exactly do NFL teams do to help the local economy that deserve your unconditional support? Scam taxpayers out of countless dollars to build new stadiums... maybe host a concert or two (at the expense of countless turf-induced knee injuries).. and... that's it? This argument only somewhat works for college teams, though even in that instance is wildly out of date.

But please, continue to shine Dave's shoes even if it goes against the best interests of the team that you claim to be a "REAL FAN" of.

Glad you and Dave are on a first name basis...he hasn't gotten a dime outta me... but I cheer and support our players every week.. regardless...nice dissertation about nothing tho...

The guys done great in life and made a ton of money. However  He's proven quickly that owning an NFL team is just not his cup of tea . Call it ego or temperament or whatever but it's just not his thing. He could sale it and add to his great business deals. I know he won't and this franchise is set up for decades of bad results under him.

Lol. Nailed that one. Has never been to a game and doesn’t watch the team.

You probably think Jake Delhomme is still the QB.

Oh I am sure at the peak of your fanhood you watched up to 5 games at the local Hooters a calendar year.

    • In January 2014, I posted this on another forum.  Seems like it fits again:   Do you remember cheering for the rain? Trying to sleep after “The no-call”? Do you know who needs to "Ice up, son"?   Remember pleading for .500? Thinking there’s no catching the Saints? Punting to Buffalo and knowing how it was going to end?   Do you remember how you felt about Kalil’s ad? Or the fan’s follow up? Gruden’s interview with Cam?   Do you remember Clausen being the steal of the draft? Will you ever forgive Mel Kiper?   Did you cry as Jake said his goodbyes? Do you remember the game that cost Gruden his job?   As fans chant “Luuuuuuke,” do you still hear “Moooose”? … “Hoooove”?   Do you recall changing the diaper? Paddling the boat? Being happy just hearing the name Smoot?   Do you recall the day when it hurt to say “Keep pounding,” and you felt you’d lost a close friend?   Did you hunt the net for Bojangle’s commercials? Have you seen a Cajun’s bare butt?   Do you remember the sunken feeling when Smitty was caught from behind and didn’t get up?   Sports Illustrated’s prediction?   Were you angry at Janet for stealing the spotlight? Does “X-Clown” still give you chills? Do you sing the wrong words to “Day-O”? Whenever you hear “He Hate Me,” do you also hear Rosinski finishing the sentence?   Did you like Seifert a little less when he let Walls’ streak of games-with-a-reception end? But nothing compared to letting Steve go, right? Do you remember that invincible feeling you had when we won the first game of 2001? Do you recall who our division rivals were?   Do you remember thinking “Just wait ‘til Bazooka’s healthy”? How about that weird grin you got watching Kevin Greene fire up the D? Or being undefeated at Ericsson?   If your answer is “no,” we happily welcome you as a new fan of our beloved team. Trust me, we’ll be happy to explain all of these and more to catch you up. For the rest of you, it’s been entirely too long since we were alive after week 17. But every question that you answered “yes” to makes this all the sweeter. Welcome to the playoffs.
    • Future considerations......     DUE to several high dollar players spending time on IR the canes have    37M in trade deadline cap space.....    
    • My 20 year old hoodie is still holding together.    PS if you want to get technical, any cable or streaming sub, even watching the network broadcasts, is supporting him.
