That's always been a cringy part of this story

He only wrote like 20% of it, and “writing” is a stretch. Almost all of it is Izzy’s and it reads like a screenplay treatment. Or like she’s describing what she imagined the story would like as a movie. Neither of them is writing great gatsby any time soon.

The book was published by some scammy self financed author company so he had to put up the money himself for her to publish it. You get the sense this was a “sorry i cheated on you” gift. Izzy wants to become an evangelical motivational speaker and needs a book to be able to sell after her speeches. 

The big takeaways were…

1. There’s powerful “yeah I DID do this and only this and I am so sorry for doing this, the only thing I did” energy in the story. It’s clearly not all he did. 

2. Izzy baby girl what is you doing 

3. Dave is a colossal asshole (spending money at strip clubs while his wife can’t afford groceries) and in all of the parts he “wrote” he comes across as weird and full of himself. 

4. something very clearly happened between Dave and someone on the staff from Seattle and it’s probably Brad Idzik. It is alluded to several times because the book wasn’t edited so there’s lots of different fragments of the same story.

He might get another shot somewhere. All he has to do is put he worked for Dave Tepper on his resume and got 8 figures for a year and a half worth of "work". They'll probably consider him a genius. 

recent history says, college has no problem with David Tepper nightmares to come work in the semi pro league of college football.  Rhule and Frank HCs.

I wrote a large thread about this when Canales was hired that was immediately locked. 


When I googled this, the first result was a huddle thread…lol.

None of it is explicitly stated but there are multiple moments during his story where I was like “excuse me what?” 

and then at one point Izzy recalls yelling in a fight and making some comment about how much Dave loves cigars with the guys but like it’s said in a way that would stop a dinner party  

like…..it’s cringey

      New York Times: Is Panthers QB Bryce Young a Lost Cause

      By DeAngelo Beason · Posted

      The thing is, there's not a part of the organization that isn't.  Would you rather buy a trailer park full of mobile homes that are about to disintegrate, or just build a few new houses?  Sure, you won't make money while you're building the new houses, but the long term payoff is going to be much, much better.  Same exact situation.  Canales was forced to keep a bunch of mobile homes instead of being allowed to build new ones .  Now he might suck at building, but we can never know unless he is given the opportunity.  I'm not saying he's done a good job or a bad job.  He hasn't been allowed to do a job period.

      With the 1st Pick in the 2026 Draft....

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Keep all options open is all I'm saying. Seems like "next year's class" is always the one. I mean, the narrative going into this year was that this was going to be a great QB draft and now it's just not looking like that's panning out on the college field but we'll see. In a few years looking back maybe it is.

      How do you or I know who he can or can't call up?  That question doesn't even make sense.  Of course he has relationships.  What matters is building YOUR team.  I don't know if you've ever been a part of a team, sports or otherwise, but I promise you goals are not achievable when you assemble a team of people that don't know how to make each other better.   Bryce Young cannot be made better.  He doesn't have the basic tools.  Of course he was brought in to try to make Young better.  Any coach we hire would be brought in for the same purpose.  Again, irrelevant to the point, which is that coach has not been permitted to build his own operation.  If you or I were hired to some sh*tshow and forced to keep the people that made it a sh*tshow, I would expect it to run exactly the same under me, regardless of the scenario.
