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....

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
