Hurting jerry where it matters most.

All these post regarding ownership has got me thinking. Is there a way to hurt jerry where it matters most to him?

Seems like jerry has us over a barrel with PSL's. The city (us) is/we are paying for renovations for his stadium. It seems the more the panthers suck, the richer JR gets.

This isn't a rhetorical question. Is there a way to hurt jerry in his pocketbook? As a fan, I feel that we have no power and no voice. Jerry needs to know that this poo isn't working for us.

I have a feeling that this wont change until jr kicks the bucket. And with a brand new ticker, he'll probably outlive us all.

The problem in Charlotte is that even when Panther fans don't show up to the stadium, tens of thousands of opposing fans happily do show up to fill that void. So the impact is hardly felt except when the game starts and the home team is out cheered.

I'll say this again as I've said in other threads about "boycotting" the team.  It's not going to work.  Charlotte is a city of transplants from other cities.  They are still fans of the teams from their hometowns.  If what little Panthers fans we have stop going to the games, these transplant fans will gladly fill the stadium.  Every Panthers home game would become a home game for the opposition.  Remember the 2010 game against the Ravens?  The stadium was purple, and after the Ravens scored, the TV announcers commented "It sounds like a Ravens home game!"

 

Jerry Richardson has no reason to support his fanbase and put a winner on the field because of this reason.  Tickets will be sold regardless if they are to Panthers fans or not.

That kills me, I fuging hate that.  If something so stupid as a football game could break my heart, that's pretty close to it.

Ticket sales are pocket change to NFL owners; they make their money off TV revenue. 

 

I feel for folks that are PSL owners, but if you aren't happy, let them go.  Continuing to spend thousands of dollars every year just in the hopes that you will recoup your investment isn't very smart.

Do they still get their revenue if the game is blacked out ? Serious question.

    • Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.
    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
