Glazer Foxy "quotes"

[ladypanther]

Many of you prolly heard this on the Fox pre-game show. Said Foxy said about the announcement...it was a relief...like a marriage gone bad. Said the problem was JR had gone cheap, did not want to pay for anything.

Made it sound like all that came from Foxy.

1 year, cleaning up Foxy's mess. (JR said he did not think this season would be this bad...like me he thought Foxy was a better coach than this.) Their label on JR is cheap, like he does not care about winning. Those guys will soon be proven wrong.

[Lumps]

Well, that was the problem this year wasn't it? Jr was cheap and didn't care about winning so their assessment is pretty accurate. The fact is now you have to prove them wrong, instead of just saying they're wrong.

Also I didn't hear what exactly was said, but if they were only talking about this year this was already known.

Fox is gonna spin it so he looks good.

[Mr. Scot]

Glazer and Fox are good friends. I have no doubt it did come from him.

[Proudiddy]

I'm with you LP. The announcement coincides with going after an unemployed or college coach. I don't understand how these dumbasses think we're gonna go after coordinators so we can be cheap, when we're not allowed to talk to the most successful ones until the playoffs are over.

[Cyberjag]

I suspect it started in 2008.

Then Glazer speculates that the Panthers are going to hire a low-cost head coach, staying on the cheap side. As Glazer put it, some assistant. Please Jerry, prove them all wrong.

Press has high praise for Foxy. They never mention that he has never put to winning seasons together in a row or that is has had only 3 winning seasons in 9 years. They just call JR cheap. Do they mention how much Foxy has been paid?

These are cheap shots at the Panther organization without knowing what they are talking about.

[Snake]

What about the other 5 years we didn't go cheap and he could not do poo.

JR did not care about winning this year. Blame Fox all you want but JR went cheap. He also got hit by some unlucky/bad decisions and some injuries. But there is no way anyone can tell me JR thought we could make the playoffs with his actions.

To purposely put the team in this situation is inexcusable and he better fix it quick. Fans get impatient real quick

[Zaximus]

Fox can use that excuse to this year. But previously, he was just a lame duck coach that was hovering around mediocre for most of his years.

[Jangler]

Just tearing down the Panthers, but at least we will have a cheap assistant as coach next year.

My perspective he had to clean up Foxy's mess instead of crippling the future. Getting good young talent builds this team for the long term. And there will be money to fill in the holes next year.

Glazer is one of the best (arguably the best) of the national sources, but he's still national. As a rule of thumb, the local guys - people who cover one team all the time rather than trying to cover the entire league at once - are pretty much always more reliable sources.

Add in that he's good friends with Fox, and that's where the info is likely coming from. His source in this matter is, shall we say, a little biased.
