Didn't see it posted anywhere, sorry if it is as it's rather "old" news (at least in internet terms)

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81ecced6/article/report-no-salary-cuts-during-lockout-for-panthers-employees?module=HP_headlines

"He told us the only one who had to worry about losing any money this year was him," one Panthers employee told the newspaper.

Richardson promised his employees that they'd be taken care of even if the labor stoppage extended for months, telling them he had planned on the contingency well before this offseason.

Interesting parts in bold.

But But But ESPN sed Richusenz was teh cheepz!!...

He knows that even if the lockout extends for months, it is bad business to lay off employees. The ones who can easily find jobs and are most valued are the ones who can go elsewhere and often do. The ones who are content to be laid off and collect employment and come back are often the ones who can be replaced and aren't always your strongest workers. So in the end you retain the ones you could very well lose, and lose the ones you most want to retain. So it only good business sense to keep everyone if you can knowing this will be resolved by late this summer if not sooner. Now if it were going to extend into next year, things might be different.

Sounds as if he truly cares about his employees which is a good thing.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By strato · Posted

      I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we?

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
