Leaked NFL Documents: While Owner Cried Hardship, Carolina Panthers Had $112 Million Profit Over Two Years

[csx]

The only reason this is significant is that the public and in particular football fanantics are stupid.

Tiger Woods makes more than the entire Panthers ownership in a year.

Cams fault?

[Niner National]

Cash flow is all that matters.

Look at page 5.

In 2011, the team lost $48 million and in 2012 the team made $30 million. If you add back the distributions/dividend that Jerry paid to himself and the partners, the team still lost $3 million over the two year period.

Basically, if you understand accounting, you'd see that the Panthers would be absolutely screwed without revenue sharing.

Wonder if ol Mush Mouth will take to the airwaves to berate the press.

We will have none of that here. There is no place for logic or facts in the Huddle.

Somebody needs to berate those morons.

That doesn't seem like very much, considering how much the team is worth.

The company I work for is only worth quarter of a billion, and make much higher profits.

[Happy Panther]

I mean, did anyone think we weren't making a profit? lol

No Forbes always said we were making money. And JR opened the checkbook after the CBA was signed so I do believe he was just making a statement.

I will always be bitter about that season though. It was tanked on purpose and i kept going to every game.

[panther4life]

So how much did Jerry pay himself over those 2 years?

You have to add in appreciation of assets. JRs team is worth $1B or so now. Compare that to what he bought it for.

And those numbers are just bottom line profit. There are lots of ways to keep money off the bottom line while still enjoying the benefits.

And don't forget free tickets and iced tea at each game.

Jealousy is a bitch.

[Panthro]

Lol I love the jealousy comments.

This doesn't change a thing....more interesting than anything

Still don't want public money going to renovations

[hepcat]

Pretty bold to ask for public funds, I have to say.

[Jase]

Think about these numbers

Then think about how much the salary cap is
