Fly Over: Would this happen or is this fanbase too far removed to care?

The Panthers cost him $2.275bn. He's rich, but he didn't buy them just for a run-down stadium to play 'soccer' in.

It was an investment, but he doesn't care about the product cause it's making him money hand over fist. 

Football investment has more than doubled and so has the soccer investment. Plus both are running on a yearly profit at that. 

 

He paid 2.6b for both teams and they are now worth a combined 7.1b dollars. 

 

On top of that the stadium is seeing 800m dollars in renovations over the next 4 years with the city fronting most of that money.

He would just hire somebody worse on purpose to punish us.

I guess I didn't explain this well in the sense that I dont expect Tepper to really care what is done by the public but more so, do we truly have any fans this devoted to the team anymore? 

This teams is just so far away anymore from this that it doesnt even seem like our franchise was this good at one time.

So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely? 

 

It's gone, our only hope is for Tepper to sell the team.

Maybe he will throw a drink at the commissioner

Tepper can’t even handle a sign outside a random restaurant, or a random opposing fan at an away game……..

I think it’s safe to say Tepper cares what others think.

David Tepper has openly called his critics within his own fanbase basement dwellers. I assure you unfortunately he does not give a single fug about the fans concerns. He and his wife are going to do as they please good or bad until the team is sold. It's unfortunate but that's the reality.
