Although Tepper didn’t specifically name President Trump, it was clear whom he was talking about, referring to “Howdy-Doody” and “the red-headed guy in DC” during the interview.

No one who buys tickets to Panthers games should call themselves “conservatives.”

I’m confused. So what they are saying is players have the right to protest the USA on company time, but no-one has the right to protest against the players even on their own time?

It’s obvious the oblivious nfl franchise owners are becoming concerned over extreme loss of revenue.

They have no one to blame but themselves.

NFL owners dont think people are allowed to have an opinion and to voice it in protest? I wish these NFL owners would stop their hate.

Because of course disrespect for the anthem and flag is such a great thing? Who could criticize that? Why do they even play that damn song at the games? /s

He said very similar hysterical anti-Trump things in the past before he was an NFL owner. And the NFL owners approved him, anyway.

The NFL owners hate POTUS because he won’t let them surrender on this issue. The NFL has become a typical progressive corportist organization.

You nailed the message from the super elite/rich Nationless Felon League owners:

So, what they are saying is players have the right to protest the USA on company time, but no-one has the right to protest against the players even on their own time?

He’s a new NFL owner just continuing his past leftist behavior.

What’s interesting here is this guy is free to spout his venom but the previous owner of the SAME NFL TEAM was forced to sell his team for being strongly against the kneeler nonsense.
