How will the uptown practice space compare to what we could have had in rock mill / fort hill? 

https://www.qcnews.com/news/local-news/panthers-take-next-step-in-building-uptown-practice-facility/

Smaller but fine from what I have seen. Most of Rock Hill was a residential and commercial mixed development around the facilities which were expanded with office if I remember correctly.

I can't belive it's 2025, the team is worth billions and the team still doesn't have a finished practice facility. Not bitching just saying wow to that chapter finally coming to a close.

I still feel 100% Tepper tanked that RH deal on purpose after regretting the initial decision.   It makes the most sense to have it Charlotte.  

I have a couple contractors friends working in Charlotte between triangle and other cities that pay well. RH over promised tepper, believe it or not. Coofus hit in the middle of it too, which killed any chance for RH to full fill their contract. They told me tepper asked for bonds and breaks and got the classic its coming. This happen three more times over nine months and tepper stopped the project, which was the correct decision. They were worried about not getting paid or being tied up in court for years. To his credit tepper paid each of them, pro move. 

RH wanted this massive project and bid against other counties in SC and NC, they vastly over promised and begging hoping tepper would not stop.. Believe it or not this type of thing happens alllll the time, I've been in many of them. It would blow your mind how many business people go all-in on developments and before you finish cleaning the trees off the land, they can not pay. Just hoping for more/different investors. Many times 3rd or 4th the land gets sold. The speeches and BS Ive been told.....jaded. Im thankfully out, outside calling old friends and visiting job sites. Subbed out work too, not any more.

I've personally only threaten one time to walk off a job. The company falsified the geological map. I told them to put another 200,000 into my bosses account or I will pack everything up and walk off the job. I already had 10 days in the project and knew this was not what was quoted. Later that day, 200,000 when into account....

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
