This is not accurate.

without going specifically into the research that contradicts this, Tepper's level of wealth basically inoculates him from negative consequences. He's also at the point he can surround himself with people that agree with him, and can even buy good press to construct soothing narratives. His wealth absolutely impacts his behaviors, just like other hyper rich lunatics like elon musk. At least tepper doesn't have a million dipshit sycophants 


Money inoculates him from negative consequences?

He’s considered the worst owner in sports and everyone is laughing at him.

Either way, the guy’s ego comes from his professional success. 100 million or 20 billion…he’s still going to be an ass.

okay. let me put it another way

if he throws a drink at someone in the stands, he gets kicked out of the stadium. Because of his wealth, he is able to own a team and throw drinks at anyone he wants.

ie, he's protected from consequences

Yes, what would happen if a fan threw their drink at him? They would be banned from NFL games and probably arrested.

He's the type of guy who'd be flexing about having the nicest above ground pool in the trailer park. He's just trash with money. Money can't buy class.

They should say ‘no comment’

’above my pay grade’

just dont participate in the feeding frenzy

they shouldn't be forced to be the first people in the org to comment, even if the comment is "no comment." it really isn't fair to them.

yep, money is just money.  Heck, money actually can make a person's flaws even worse.  I'd say that is a near certain.  Lot of horrible people got money.  Money also is a universal inflator of one's abilities.  Well, I made money doing X......so I can now do anything just as well as I did X. 

Tepper's biggest mistake was not treating what this was, what it was.  He was diversifying and growing his wealth.  He obviously couldn't resist the play toy factor of the NFL team.

      Jaycee LOCKDOWN Horn is due for a breakout year

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
