Tepper's revolving door continues

Right “we stole him from the Cardinals.” Lol that was you right? I think you are just mad at so many things it’s hard to keep up.

So we have a new GM and VP, now an old VP from last year’s staff is gone. This really isn’t news. 

Manufactured outrage.

So lets clean house after our worst season ever by promoting the right hand man to GM.  Makes perfect sense.   So we hire a up and coming dude 18 months ago and then fire him 2 weeks before TC.  Yeah if someone is still defending this disorganized mess of a franchise then they probably need to be committed.  I cannot imagine simping for the fuging teppers after everything we now no.  But you guys do your thing

Just because we think you are overreacting and being dramatic like you always do, doesn’t mean we are “simping for the teppers.” 
You are literally proving my point in this response about promoting Morgan and firing an “up and coming dude” from the Cardinals and our staff last year. Some people are just wanting to be mad and whine/complain. We promoted Morgan who was “up and coming” and it was a bad idea. We fired another VP from that staff who was also “up and coming” and it was a bad idea. 
Tell me what did Wilson do with the Cards and our last season that makes you want us to keep him so bad?

I could give two shits about wilson.   However his firing just shows more of the same with tepper and co.  Keep simping though I am entertained.

Lol oh you are certainly upset. Sorry we aren’t keeping the same front office as last year. You will be ok though, I promise.

Why exactly did they think it was a great idea to hire a guy off the fuging Cardinals office anyway? Aside from him being a local guy. Also why is that Cole Spencer dude still lingering around? He's like the Ian Thomas of the FO. This whole thing is still a mess regardless of Canales and Morgan having a bond or something

I'll just say, he was a great player in his career. Seemed to be a quality individual. So why would they be opposed to trying him out in his home area post playing career? Because he was drafted by losers?

Hey, don’t misread my statement. I was pretty clear that I wanted all the coaches and Fitterer’s staff gone. I only was saying that Wilson leaving is meaningless and all the OMG stuff is silly. No real up and coming stars came to Carolina so losing Wilson isn’t keeping us from doing better. Our future rests on what Canales can do with the young guys and at QB (improve Young or prove he’s not the guy) and what Morgan’s drafting will be.

Also, in the past few years as the director/VP of scouting for the Cardinals, what did Wilson do to make him an up and comer? Scouting Murray and Isiah Simmons? Tre McBride in the 2nd looks like their best value draft pick in Wilson’s unbelievably amazing 4 years at the head of scouting for that juggernaut drafting Cardinals team. Again, we like to puff up people to make Tepper and co look worse. No need to make Wilson look better than he was to make the last 6 years look worse.

this is interesting, it feels like if they were going to fire him they would have done it already but he was on blueprint looking excited about the draft. If i had to guess he did something non football related that got him fired.

“Consistent with our organizational policy on employee matters, we will have no further comment.” Makes it appear it could be a personal issue of some sort. He could even have a sick family member he wanted to move closer to, hindering him from his job. Who knows?? Again I don’t think this is anything groundbreaking despite some of the reactions on here.

Y'all sure are prone to overreacting. I guess that's a coping mechanism.

I mean, there's a definite trend here. It is what it is. A revolving door of personnel and losses piling up. That's been the story of the Tepper era so far.

    • couple more things re: extreme hots and colds and the EV use tax. In the winter months, I can confirm that the range isn't as far, but it has never given me range anxiety except the first time I made a trip to Myrtle Beach and wasn't accounting for it. I just had to detour and use a Supercharger for 5 min and the rest of the trip was no issue. Summer months have never been an issue at all.  NC has a $140.25 EV Registration fee every year, which amounts to the gas/use tax for ICE.        
    • Just seeing this thread, and after browsing, I figured I would drop in and add my 2 cents. I hope this answers some of the questions or misconceptions that I have noticed.   I have owned a 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus since Dec 2020, and love it. Absolute best car I have ever personally owned.  Current daily driver of 100 miles round trip to work and back.  Level 2 Charger at home in Garage.   The battery in my car was still designed to charge to ~80% for daily usage, only going above for trips etc preferably. The current batteries they recommend to charge to 100%.   1st year was in an apartment, 40 miles round trip at that point. Would highly depend on public level 2 charger at the library near me, and would also use 110v at work occasionally on weekends. Supercharger for travel. It wasn’t the most optimal, but I made it work. No maintenance in this year outside of tire rotations.   Years 2+, I am now driving 100 miles round trip to work. Level 2 charger in my garage.  I get home from work at ~25% charge, and charge back to my daily 80% in ~3.5hrs. On 110v, you can expect that will be over 24hrs. So for daily driver usage you will want a level 2 charger. For piddling around town, 110v will probably be fine. I had a part fail that was covered under warranty, and tire replacement/rotations for maintenance.     Tires: I have 99k+ miles on my car currently. I will put my 2nd set of tires on it at ~110k.   When I have had people ask me how I like my car, I always show them these 2 pages from the Tesla app. The numbers there are based on what I pay for kWh ($0.11) vs est cost of gas in NC at $3.93 per gallon. People who are concerned about the higher cost vs ICE probably don’t figure in the gas savings, or time/cost getting oil changes etc.  My car payment isn’t that much higher than any other car I’ve owned (shrug).   I know this is personal, and I don’t like the guy either, but I would not let Musk keep me from owning the brand. Thats like Henry Ford keeping you from owning Ford for, well….   Tesla currently have the best charging infrastructure for travel. Longest trip I have made is to Williamsburg VA from Triangle region. No issues getting there, no range anxiety etc. Sure stops can take longer for charging etc, but they are mostly setup at restaurants, gas stations etc for breaks, but ideally you’re not charging back to full at a stop. The best way to travel is to charge enough for you to get to the next stop. It’s faster at the batteries get juice faster when they are lower.  I have never seen another brand using Tesla superchargers tho I have heard it’s coming. But I have seen assholes pull their boats horizontally in charging stations 😉   If you are curious about how an EV would play into travel, check out https://abetterrouteplanner.com . Put in any EV you want, it will show you the path, time and time per charge etc. Great tool.
