Douche Richardson! Developed a Hatred for JR!
PostPosted:9 years 6 months ago
What man Fires his own Son's and only to have one die from cancer not too long after?
What man charges his own players for there used jerseys?
.
What man needs heart transplant and only waits 2 days compared to normal folks who die before one is available?
These people are not people who have any of the same problems as those who fill the seats that fill their coffers, but averages Joes can at least look at these aging show poodles and find a common bond of caring about the same sports team.
Then there's Jerry Richardson.
Richardson is the sour, unsmiling, founder of Hardee's and the Panthers who forced his own sons out of the business in 2009. He's also the owner who took the hardest line against the players' union during the lockout of 2011, allegedly insulting the intelligence of Drew Brees and Peyton Manning, among other players. It's safe to say that he would have canceled the season if it meant giving less money to the players.
He's also responsible for this quote:
Richardson became so angry at Sean Morey after the recently retired player cited a slew of statistics on player safety and average career length that the Panthers’ owner snapped, "You guys made so much [expletive] money – if you played three years in the NFL, you should own your own [expletive] team."
The average NFL salary is $1.9M (the median is $770K), while the average NFL team is worth in excess of one billion dollars. I don't know what kind of investment tips Richardson has, but that statement flies right past hyperbole and lands securely in greedy asshole territory.
Oh, and Sean Morey? Merely a career special teams hustler who transitioned into a player advocate around the time that he realized his series of concussions had started to affect his moods and family life, as documented in The United States of Football.
So, NFL fans, enjoy Cam Newton's on-field brilliance and the Panthers' bruising defense. Revere in Ron Rivera's sudden willingness to go for it on 4th down, and be happy for NFL fans in a section of the country where the SEC typically determines football allegiances.
But save just a little bile for Jerry Richardson, a poisonous, vile old miser who has nothing but bile for you.
