Reminder that Tepper made a lot of his fortune by buying debt from companies and then asking the government for a bailout on the debt he now owns. In a world of scummy billionaires, he somehow manages to be even scummier.

I heard he became a overnight billionaire when he gambled on Obama bailing out the banks, he was right. 

 

There's too many ???&WTF things happening, but government bailing out car companys, banks, ANY GD company that was ran into the ground or allowing to operate while owning billions and millions is at the top of the mountain of fug you.

Im pretty sure he is a billionaire now but he wasn't when he first bought the bobcats/hornets and mostly bought their debt and some skittles

He is and was, but he'd be worth two billion instead of just one....

Im honest in saying the public doesn't know or realize the amount of cash he has lost gambling. There's a nasty rumor that brings it to some understanding. Along with if you believe he just woke up and was like " I think I can hit that single A curve ball " rather than make 30 million per. It's almost like he was forced....

 

Nike saved his financial career with the Jumpman brand, which I have a question- Does the youth care about Jumpman in 2025?

especially when you have a group of "individuals" threatening to kill you and your response is " Im Michael Jeffrey Jordan, you cannot kill me!! ". Mob....errrraA tax collectors- " I guess that's true, so what about your family?? "

He also had insane debts at casinos, he had to sell Jumpman stock to pay off a couple of them. Lots of bad investments that were gambles as well....

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Icege · Posted

      "If only Bryce were <height>", he'd <insert stupid thing here>" was the bit and in direct response to multiple posters ridiculously blaming Bryce (and only Bryce) for the punt returns vs. New England. :3 I understand that folks desire balance, hence the "Bryce stans vs. Bryce haters" narrative but it's abundantly clear that the only people going into threads just to talk about Bryce are the haters. Meanwhile, daring to disagree that Bryce was completely at fault for something that happened on special teams gets the "stan" label. Shoot, I'm sure folks lump me in as a Bryce stan (Brycen stan? Absolutely. Bryce stan? Nah) just because I have the audacity to look at what the rest of the team is and isn't doing. 😛

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ Walker is the only QB in the Tepper era the Panthers managed to find wins with.  Only QB w/ a winning record.    PJ had success in pro ball before the Panthers.  He he had NFL tools.    He just is consistent and unreliable.  PJ Walker is what you call a bad/poor man's gunslinger.  He can provide highs and lows both virtually guaranteed.  He is NFL depth.  Bryce Young hasn't proven to improve a teams chances of winning better than the PJ Walker tier of QBing. PJ Walker can do things Bryce Young can't......and that a problem

      There isn’t but the thing is the team/system/staff around the QB ultimately dictates how successful that QB can be. You have Baker getting released midseason here vs playing like a MVP on another team. Darnold on the Jets/Panthers vs Vikings/Seahawks. Geno Smith on the Jets vs the Seahawks vs the Raiders. Mac Jones is looking as good as Purdy on the 49ers. You have to build a roster, culture, and system for these guys.  Obviously the QB has to be the leader and help elevate the team, but we are seeing what moving a “bad” QB to a stable franchise looks like. Daniel Jones might be doing the same but it’s too early to tell.
