Offered 1.25 billion for team, why is it coming out now?

First off,I do thank JR for giving us a team and keeping them here, for that I am grateful.But why is this coming to light today? I'm sure he knows the fan base is irrate.Maybe to cool the flames a bit to show he is committed to this city? What's your take on why we find this out after another bad start

The offer was 1.25B.  Its 20-25% over the appraised value of the team, but it was made by a group in LA.  The reason it didn't come out right away, was because it wasn't supposed to be public information.  It hurts the groups negotiating power in an attempt to buy another team.

 

This should really show anyone who thinks Jerry only cares about the bottom line, that it simply isn't true.  He's not going to run the team financially into the ground, but winning a Super Bowl is worth far more to him than profit margins at this point.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
