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.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
