Has anyone here ever met David Tepper in person?

That just seems like a self owning to me. I'm selling the house. I don't care what you do with it. You bought it just to tear it down thinking that would piss me off? Okay. Joke's on you though.

When you can buy about anything and have done about everything what's left but an endless ego trip?

I've had a ton of interactions, all really cool to basic hellos. I've joked with him, talked music, I had to hold his phone while he did an interview, he once came behind me (while I was working) and rubbed my head to simply saying hello in passing, etc. I've never had a bad interaction with him and Nicole is amazing, always saying hello, giving hugs, just a genuinely nice person. I believe Mr. Tepper is super smart, knows what he wants and is struggling to get there (not all his fault - players play and coaches coach too). Football is not basic business. The ebb and flow of a game, the ref calls, the way the football bounces, to injuries, etc all play into winning and losing. It's not just the owner but all eyes are on him everyday. Unfortunately, people judge and have opinions, right or wrong. I really believe he just wants to win and be a hero to the city. I am a fan of the Teppers, even if it's not the popular opinion.

 I know many people do not like Tepper, but we can at least appreciate the fact that he does truly want to win, and he isn't afraid to open up the checkbook to try and make it happen. I believe that once this team starts having some success and he's able to start interacting with the fans like he was pre 2018 cam shoulder falling apart then his image will change for the better.

Which head did he rub?

Football might not be basic business, but authorised trading 5 premium players away for a 5'10", severely physically limited QB was the dumbest move I've ever seen.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
