Colin Kaepernick wants to join Diddy, Steph Curry to buy the Carolina Panthers

[n2doc]

Twenty-four hours ago, 81-year-old Jerry Richardson was the Panthers' owner and there was no reason to think that was changing anytime soon. But by Sunday evening, Richardson had announced that he would sell the team, hours after an explosive SI.com story detailing allegations of workplace misconduct and confidential payouts.

It didn't take long for potential suitors to make themselves known, starting with rapper and producer Diddy who wants to bring Colin Kaepernick back to the NFL.

"The North Carolina Panthers are up for sale. I believe it's time to turn the franchise over to new ownership," Diddy said in an Instagram post. "I need to send a message out to everybody in the beautiful state of North Carolina: I will be the best NFL owner that you can imagine. I will immediately address the Colin Kaepernick situation and put him in the running for next year's starting quarterback. It's just competition, baby! It's just competition.

"But also, I will have the best halftime show, the best selection of music and we will win [multiple Super Bowls]."

1. That would be great.

n/t.

2. The Panthers have a starting quarterback already. Kaepernick is not in the same league as Cam.

Not by a long shot.

[Bonx]

3. Kap just needs a chance. he will show them.

[Loki Liesmith]

5. Lol

[Tipperary]

6. Ok, sure. eom

[n2doc]

7. He wants to be an Owner, not the QB n/t

[Tipperary]

9. Diddys quote says he wants to put Kap in the running for starting quarterback.

He better start running now lol. No effing way.

[n2doc]

11. Yeah, but Kap says he wants to be in the Ownership group

Diddy has the dollars, but clearly not the sense..

15. I don't think he does

The Panthers are worth 1 billion dollars.

[Tipperary]

18. I read 2.3 billion. That is a lot of cold cash. This will not happen.

12. The important thing is you continue rationalizing his stats as your raison d'tre.

The important thing is you continue rationalizing his stats as your raison d'être.


Not by a long shot, indeed.

13. It's why he's not in the league.

He really isn't a good quarterback for the NFL game. Neither Robert Griffin or Tim Tebow are in the league either for the same reason.

[Tipperary]

17. Um, no. I simply quoted Diddy and said no way would Kap measure up against Cam.

Feel free to bookmark. It simply will not happen.

4. Doubt that is enough capital

But we’ll see

[n2doc]

8. Maybe Lebron will join them n/t

[Loki Liesmith]

14. that might do it.

[Stinky The Clown]

10. I hope this happens

[Sgent]

16. I hope they can swing it

but NFL teams are very expensive, and you can't use them to secure debt -- so you have to pay in cash.
