Does anyone else immediately stop watching the draft videos when Tepper pops on the screen to talk to the draft pick?  I just get repulsed now at the sight of him and the sound of his voice.

I don’t mind him. He’s definitely villainized around here but honestly if you just accept that this organization was a fuging joke lonnnnggggg before he bought it and will be lonnnngggg after he is gone, it makes for a much more mellow, pleasurable Sunday viewing experience.

I mind.  Because it’s one thing to suck and suck with humility and a willingness to learn.  It’s another to suck and think you have it all figured out while you act like an asshole.  From throwing drinks on fans, to the hires, to the fires, to the “basement dwellers” comment about his own fanbase for calling him out on his idiocy.  His face pisses me off.  His voice pisses me off.  But I agree with you Montsta…  I’ve never been more apathetic or indifferent when it comes to our team for the reasons you mentioned.  I accepted long ago we were an incarnation of the Browns.  Hope it turns around and we find our footing under this regime…  But Tepper just irks me…

I mean, I am repulsed by it, but Canales does turn it around pretty quick.

I always put myself in other peoples shoes, and I feel like, do they even know/care about who the linebacker coach is right now?

But it will probably mean something to them down the road when they establish that relationship and reflect back on the night, so I tolerate it.

I am just thankful he has been less involved as far as we can tell lately, and it seems to be paying off with our PFF A+ grade for this draft.

I will hold my thoughts until we see how much up Dan and Daves ass he was in the draft confidential if they do one this year. His vibe feels like more hands off this go round but they haven't really given anything substantial media wise to decipher yet. 

 

I feel like with guys at Tepper's level of ego, even getting them to take an imaginary backseat is an accomplishment.

The Teps appear to be super hands off in the D&D world compared to earlier.  The drink incident seems to be The turning point

Nothing wrong with "I'm the owner, welcome to the team, here's Coach"

Compared to, let's say, Dallas draft videos where Jerry is front and center? Tep is almost an afterthought 

The full Draft Confidential, if it's released, will tell us more.

I think Tepper gets a bad rap.  The team was going downhill before he bought it. He was a new owner and took his lumps, but I do feel like he's learned and has the team in the right direction. It seems that when things are bad it's Tepper's fault and when they start turning around it's someone else's credit.  Morgan was a good hire and Canales was a good hire.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
