With the Carolina Panthers surprisingly soon to be on the market, the franchise is getting interest from a few unexpected new potential owners, including Sean "Diddy" Combs, Stephen Curry, and now Colin Kaepernick.
Current owner Jerry Richardson announced on Sunday that he would be selling the team after a report from Sports Illustrated revealed accusations of sexual misconduct and the use of a racial slur.
Hip hop mogul and entrepreneur Sean "Diddy" Combs was one of the first high-profile celebrities to express interest in owning the team, tweeting out on Sunday night "I would like to buy the @Panthers. Spread the word. Retweet!" to his 13.9 million followers.
Shortly after that, NBA superstar Stephen Curry threw his hat in the ring, quote-tweeting Diddy's original message and adding "I want in!"

The Carolina Black Panthers.
Puff Daddy has 13.9 million followers?
Why?

Even with their combined money, I’m pretty sure they’ll be a couple billion short.
They’re also stupid if they think they’ll make a lot of money the next few years.
“I would like to buy the @Panthers. Spread the word. Retweet!”
Thats not how it works, Piffy.
I hope they buy the new Black Panthers because they will run it into the ground, destroy football and lose all their money.
I hope nobody of good virtue puts a dime into this. Let all the leftists go bankrupt together.
They’re going to need a bigger bank.

Don’t hold stock in any company that doesn’t cancel its season tickets to a P Diddy/Colon Kaepernik franchise.
When Shad Khan bought the Jags the cost was $760 million. I seriously doubt these people have that kind of $$. Or am I out in left field?
So that he can REALLY run the franchise into the ground.
Oh please, Oh please let this happen.
The evolution of thug ball. Brought to you by thug owners.
Why do regional accents follow regional geography except for millions who constitute the bulk of the 13.9 million?
I remember when Leonard Tose sold the Eagles for $26 million. I think it as to Jeffery Lawrie?
Why, isn’t he entitled?
Heck I’d like to be a part of that deal. Diddy always makes money.
Poor oppressed Colin K, apparently rich enough to waste his money on a professonal football team.
Will they vet Combs for ever using racial slurs?
