Charlotte FC, Panthers owner David Tepper fired another head coach. So what else is new?

David Tepper fell out of love with another head coach Wednesday, which is more or less an annual occurrence.

If a coach manages to last three full seasons under Tepper, I’m going to buy that man a beer and ask him how in the world he did it. This time Tepper — the mercurial, impatient, gregarious and occasionally infuriating billionaire owner of both the Carolina Panthers and Charlotte FC — got rid of Christian Lattanzio, which means the Queen City’s Major League Soccer team has now played for two seasons and gone through two coaches.
