Jerry Richardson has creeped his way into forcing a sale of the Carolina Panthers.  Richardson bought the team for $203 million and the estimate for the team now is $2.3 billion.  Not a bad pay day for someone being forced out.

Looks like Diddy was one of the first to jump onto the bandwagon of buying a team saying the NFL needs to diversify.  Hey, I'm all for diversification, but Diddy can't afford a team on his own and I can guarantee ol' Jerry isn't giving any discounts.  Steph Curry said he would be interested in buying in, but I'm not sure what his bottom line is.   I'm not sure what the NFL rules are on liquid assets as well, but I'm sure they would have to have a group of people to come up with the money needed. 

There will be multiple people interested in buying this team.  Charlotte is a large area, and the fan base makes up almost 2 states.
