Tipping Jerry Richardson


Panthro

Recommended Posts

I think I might have a way to get this whole stadium upgrade money situation behind us.

Instead of implementing a tax on all the food and beverages in Charlotte simply put an extra line for gratuity at the bottom of the receipt that goes right to Jerry. That way those that think he has done a great job as an owner can tip accordingly just as they would the server.

Some people may want to stiff him while others like SCP can give him a 25% tip.

In the grand scheme, if I spend $48 or $58 when I take my wife to Golden Coral for our anniversary, it's an extra $10, what's the big deal? She can have all the cotton candy and chocolate wonderfall she can eat and i can get a hand job on the ride home. The original proposal would have only cost me an additional $.50, but your plan works just as well. I'm willing to pay for stuff that brings me pleasure and entertainment.

This epiphany came to me when I gave my barista a dollar today. I thought if JR's funding came based on performance, for the first time in the history of owning the Panthers, it might put winning at a little higher of a priority.

I just will never understand the hate on Jerry Richardson by some of you guys.

Panthro thinks it is a clever way to get a rise out of people. I can't imagine anyone being really that obsessed by one rich guy.

People hate rich people until they themselves become rich or make enough money to live in excess. All of us are working to make as much money as possible, we are all the same.

At the same time there are a lot of poor useless assholes too. They just complain instead of doing anything like employing people.

Despite the fact I still tip a person $1 to hand me a cup of coffee, I can't help but still laugh that he/she got a $1 out of me...

There are good and bad people everywhere from all walks of life. Let's not start stereotyping all poor people.

    • Going from the 32nd to 27th ranked QB is a huge achievement indeed.
    • I do expect the offense to fall back to earth next year if everything stays the same.  It is kinda like how the Panthers and even now the Chiefs won in the past.  Winning many close, coin flip games.  It never lasts from season to season usually. 
    • Biased is one way of putting it. The NFL is an entertainment product in the strictest legal sense. Although I might yell it out on game days, I do not believe the games are outright “rigged” meaning there is one team that is going to win no matter what happens. It’s impossible. There’s too much variance in the game that can prevent a truly rigged game from happening unless there was cooperation from many parties involved. What I am thoroughly convinced happens is that the NFL and referees “manage” the games towards certain outcomes. And that is done primarily through referee crew choice however I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more going on behind the curtain.  The NFL uses the officials statistical tendencies to call penalties is to keep games close to drive user engagement. For example, If a crew tends to call more false start penalties, and there’s a game between a heavy pass offense where the NFL would like to manufacture a close game where it might have potential to be a blowout, then they’ll assign a crew that will slow that offense down and keep the game close.  There is an insane amount of marketing and now sports betting money that is married to the NFL economic ecosystem. To think this whole system is fair when the referee union has no outward accountability structure for poor performance is just naive. It’s closer to the WWE than outward appearances suggest, but it’s not a fully scripted outcome either. So for those who say “stop watching” if you don’t want to watch a “rigged” game, it’s an entertainment product. You can still be entertained by it, even if it’s not as fair as a truly merit based sporting event.
