He's his own worst enemy. Only sliver of hope is that sheer shame will lead him to hire a consultant and a team president to run things and he just pays the bills. But I do not see him and his wife changing their stripes.

I keep seeing stuff like this posted. Everyone here knows the Panthers already has a Team President right?

Oh yeah I wasn’t arguing that. I just brought it up because i don’t think some people realize that role already exists and somebody is in it.

Serious question:  

If you were the 91st wealthiest person in THE WORLD at $21B (there are 8 billion people in the world)…Tep could buy-out 20+ billionaires.

…what would you be doing…and why would you be in a visitor box in Jacksonville throwing your drink at a fan?

Like go buy an island, buy whatever friends you want, and live your greatest life, never encountering another human you don’t want to.  You’re running your own world.

I don’t understand some of these egos…. You’re done, you made it!  Why become a low-hanging fruit for Stephen A. Smith?

You don't buy a football team if you're content to slink off to your own private island.

He wants the publicity, the ego massaging.

Most just assume it's an easy move that is 100% justified if you look at the record over her time in that position.

Hope that he develops a throwing arm? I mean, c'mon; it was an under-handed toss like a softball player tossing one to his kid. If you're going to throw something at someone, make it worthwhile. Throw a beer bottle, a chair, TV set. 

Fug, man, put some gut in it. And don't walk away. If you're going to throw something, stand up and show the guy you did it.

This is a 

‘check the box’ hire just like having a trans cheerleader ‘checks the box’

 

Tepper may be an idiot but he has hired enough around him to make him look ‘diverse’

Sports teams are a toy or hobby to the rich. It's not about making money; they have better ways to do that. He's a fantasy football player with the means to do it for real.

Oh, but it is about the money. In what other world can you own, produce and distribute a sh!t product and have a guaranteed positive ROI, despite the fact said sh!t product continues to get even worse?

Tepper paid $2.2B in 2018, right? Forbes estimates the August 2023 value of the Panthers to be $4.1B

On the contrary sports team and the NFL specifically is one of the best investments where you have a principle in the billions and its return beats inflation............better than treasury bonds for the wealthy that can get a shot at it.

The rest of it is all ego..............you don't get to this level without having one.

Just a reminder to all the whining people that  were constantly critical of  Jerry Richardson and wanted him  gone.  Well you got what you wanted but it seems obvious  that : ("The grass isn't always greener on the other side of the hill.")

My sincere hope is that David and Nicole Tepper are reflecting on their ownership style and after yesterday's unfortunate display of frustration by DT, they finally decided to hire Football people to run the team. I have no doubt the Tepper's want to win, their willingness to spend money on facilities and human capital make that obvious - and yesterday's outburst was pure evidence of DT's frustration with the lack of success that he himself has directed. It's time to for the Tepper's to step back and adopt a different management approach.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By frankw · Posted

      I feel like anyone within the Panthers fanbase no matter where they land on Bryce should agree on this. He's a good kid. He's intelligent. But ultimately is he going to ever be the guy to command a locker room? Obviously none of us can say. But I just don't get any alpha vibes from him whatsoever. Is that a dealbreaker? Not necessarily. Here's the thing though. We had the talk of his generational years ahead of his age leadership trait clubbed over our heads for weeks nonstop before the draft. But after seeing someone like Sam Darnold navigate life as a starting QB I think anyone here should be able to acknowledge homerism there are some similarities to Darnold in terms of personality. That is not what we were sold. All of this takes me back to before the draft. I just can't shake the sense that Stroud just rubbed Tepper or someone the wrong way. Was he too confident? Not subservient enough? Did they feel Bryce was more marketable and media savvy? My gut says these things weighed more into the pick than they should have. If not. Stroud more than likely would have been the selection. What's done is done though. I'm just like you though. I want to see some fire from Bryce at some point this season. But I'm expecting to be disappointed considering his first order of business following one of the worst rookie seasons ever was to detach completely and do nothing. As always. Hoping for the best. I feel like I have to put a disclaimer at the end of this post for the Bryce superfans. I want to see him do well. I don't want this to end in the worst case scenario. There now we can be friends!

      Every Big-Time Throw from Bryce Young and CJ Stroud in 2023

      By Basbear · Posted

      I felt the Cam vibes on the huddle with Bryce, in fact its almost there. Threads that have no mention of young, turn in them.  Only deal is Cam had tons more supporters/nut huggers.  I honestly hated talking Cam with 90% of the huddle, in many eyes he was perfectly accurate with all his throws and if he had a legit great game the true haters were missing in action.   Cam board is now a Bryce board...
