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

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

I haven't said a word about public money.

That being said, public money gets spent everyday on big business.

BOA didn't just pick charlotte. I'm sure they got a great tax break to build there. Happens all the time.

I'm not a big fan of public money helping out big business, but I understand it well enough to know if a city wishes to prosper, and not lose jobs and even industry, they'll continue to help big business.

What do the Panthers bring NC? Charlotte you can make an argument for but NC?

It's fuging renovations you mouth breathers not new business or new infrastructure or new jobs

MetLife is 100s of millions in taxable income ADDED to the state every year.

They aren't hiring 2600 escalator operators

Aren't your PSLs enough skin in the game for the city and the Panthers? The city doesn't need skin in the game bc 70,000 people already do

If sold are you paid back that investment?

Then move your stupid ass to another state. I didn't see you protesting them using state money on that dumb ass water center in Greensboro or to build the PNC center for the Hurricanes. But now you want to play the victim tax payer role when it comes to the panthers? Go fug yourself hypocrite.

I guess every football team should just pay for it all.

The Panthers were the exception, they aren't the rule.

I understand, You don't want to contribute. So don't.

Finally somebody gets the point:

".... the team doesn’t meet the grant’s criteria, which include creating a net increase in employment."

Renovations using a limited number of workers for a limited amount of time doesn't meet the criteria that the legislators set long ago. Not the new Governor.

What does the Hurricanes bring to NC or NASCAR Museum or White Water center that all used tax money.

is anyone really surprised

Absolutely not. You don't get on top of the business world without being a greedy bastard. It's just the nature of business and capitalism.

Because the Welfare Queen doesn't own the team that spawned this website you're posting on.

I might have some agreement with you if every other owner in the league was paying for their own poo. Or I didn't already have to kick out tax money for bull poo I don't use or will ever use.

[Delhommey]

Other people do it to. Ahhhh

[koolkatluke]

Other people do it to. Ahhhh

Again I ask where the fug were you and your protest when they built the PNC arena and the White Water center on our dime? I didn't see you out there marching Nelson.
