OK, so I'm still not happy about getting frozen out of today's Panthers/Tepper press conference. But I've gotten some of it out of my system here, by writing a column for @theobserver about exactly what I WANTED to ask Tepper -- if I hadn't been ignored. https://t.co/iqiYyPMQ5n

On Monday, Charlotte columnist Scott Fowler called on David Tepper to fire himself. On Tuesday, the Panthers didn't call on Fowler to ask Tepper a question, even though Fowler was in the front row raising his hand like Arnold Horshack. https://t.co/aZvLCxwlCq https://t.co/QKzO7Y0zB0
I'm very unhappy w/ the Panthers for getting frozen out of asking a question at the David Tepper press conference. Sat in front row; raised hand high; wasn't called on; protested to no avail. Felt like it was purposeful. Posting yesterday's column here⬇️ https://t.co/trLGY9y9Zk
