#1 Tepper called NFL player the "most patriotic people" in the country, noting their substantial charitable contributions.

Attempting a little old fashioned virtue signalling as he cashes his $2.2B per year paycheck. Nice try Mr. Tepper, but I don't think the viewing public is buying.

#3 "Tepper ‐ who bought the Panthers for $2.2 billion in May"

May is well after the protests started. This guys just lashing out because what he thought was a good buy was a sinking ship.

#4 Have a look at this, Tepper -

Dallas local TV ratings should make the rest of the NFL nervous

#5 Your product sucks Davy, and is not necessary.

And ginger shaming....tut tut my poor man.

And note..I had a chance to watch the great big really cool Gruden comeback game. Flogging sucked. Especially the announces; not sure who the hype man was except awful. Like listening to Bob Costas host an auction.

#6 Seems as if the USFL was way ahead of their time. If they appeared now, without the virtue signaling or any other politics, they might get some serious traction.

#7 We live in the Charlotte area and commented that Jerry Richardson (former owner) probably sold out at the peak. Since there were allgations of sexual misconduct, he had no problem getting the league to agree to the sale.

But with declining TV ratings, injuries, and stupid political stunts, I think Jerry will laugh a lot longer than David Tepper.

By the way, David, you are now in the South. We are patriotic down here. Please consult your Marketing department before making any more comments like this.

#8 F*** the National Fing Losers. All your teams should kneel, kneel like slaves they are. Kneel because they unworthy to be called free men. Kneel before your betters and demonstrate your loyalty to your worthless masters in the Democrat party.
