Thats considering that navarro should get the team for cheaper since hes local and likely much more passionate about the teams success. It's great that all of a sudden raising cash is a red flag, meanwhile Jimmy haslem flew through the vetting process while running a completely corrupt business. Oh wait... Haslem was ALSO a rooney guy, minority steelers owner who the owners knew. Hmmm.......

Tepper was sold to because the owners knew him and vetted him. Because Richardson likes rooney. Tepper isn't local. He's a diehard steelers fan. He may be the richest and offered the most cash, but he didn't even put in the highest bid. If I'm a panthers fan I'd want a guy whose local and roots for my team,especially knowing there are plenty of more than competitive offers. I know, what a weird wish list. Damn obvious the league was in the can for Tepper because hes an inner circle guy.
