Run for his money? Do you know how long Woody has been fuging over the Jets? So bad that Belichick peaced out before he even started coaching. If anything its the other way around lol, Tepper playing catch up. 

Slow down nobody is saying Woody Johnson isn't one of the worst owners in the NFL.

But Tepper has arguably been one of if not the most impulsive and easily duped owners in a fairly short amount of time. He's seemingly finally starting to take the hint and chill maybe but make no mistake he's already been right there with Woody and it's taken him 24 years to be this bad. Worst win % in all of professional sports within 6 years of ownership for Tepper? That's quite the feat.

Could you imagine being in that meeting? Johnson steps in and with a straight face says he's nixing the trade because of  Madden rating. You chuckle because it's obviously a joke and while not overly clever you're pretty impressed with the sincerity of the delivery. Uncomfortable silence envelopes the room as everyone slowly realizes it's not a joke. This motherfuger is actually serious. 

If I'm the GM im simply saying, "Listen, if you're seriously going to come in here and veto a trade because of an arbitrary video game rating, just go ahead and fire me now because this is straight out of The Onion."

The poorly managed teams are so bad this year that I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't come up at offseason meetings. 

It hurts everybody's bottom line for the bottom of the league to be this terrible. 

Mike Silver (wrote this article) has some really interesting stories from those meetings. I heard him speak on PMT once.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
