Uh oh. Pat Y might just have dropped a bombshell. Get ready for Beane as GM

[Fox007]

How do any of you here know whether he would be a good choice or not?!? Leave it to the guys whos job it is to decide these things.....christ. You never know, Beane may lead us to the promised land.

We have been doing that since 95.

How has it worked out there champ?

[carolina-chuck]

Fug JR if that really happen. Fug that old man 1000000x seriously.

Pat Y is one of my favorite guy. He must have some inside sources. Fug JR!

Beane: Last week I was making sure all the players got their per diem checks for the San Diego trip, now I'm figuring out our multiyear draft and FA strategy to compliment our core players, playing capology to fix the mess we're in, and implementing a coaching search. Thank God I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night. I should know...I booked the reservations.

If this happens (unlikely) I'm going to cry.

Hey guys listen to the master minds behind 14 losing seasons out of 18, they clearly know more than you or anyone else!

This scenario really would suck. Just fuging keep Hurney then.

Exactly what I was thinking. What a cop out that would be

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

from handing the GM search over to the architect of the giants' current super bowl juggernaut at one point to possibly just promoting another yes-man from within

wat

for the record though i believe the gettleman talk more than this

[thatlookseasy]

Hey, if your team wins 13 games in 3 seasons, is eliminated from playoff contention by week 8, and has serious cap issues, why would you not stick with the guys who got you there?

fug it, lets bring back hurney and sign Rivera to a 5 year extension while we are at it.

Or maybe JR could just take a huge dump at midfield before the next game to let the fans know what he thinks about them

And if the organization is stupid enough to to go against Accorsi in favor of a dumbass move like this, the fan exodus will be massive.

A fan base is going to quit on the Panthers based on who JR hires as GM? I think you have lost touch with reality. The average Panthers fan probably didn't even know Hurney was the GM or what he even looked like.

I'm pretty damn sure most of the PSL owners know who's who in our front office.

A fan base is going to quit (and has been quitting) on a team that is pretty much a running joke year in and year out. Four winning seasons in eighteen years. Four. Since 1995. It's not that half the fan base will literally say "omfg we chose Beane?! BEANE?!". What they'll do is notice that we're a poo team next year yet again and stop caring even more than they already do. And Beane, the guy who was an underling to the other guy we just ran out of town because of the complete fuging mess he made of things, gives very little hope that we'd change a system and situation that has completely and utterly failed.

JR did say they wanted to do things their way. If this happens I'm selling all my tickets to opposing fans next year. Something I swore I'd never do.

[SauceBoss]

on paper this makes sense, but in execution it will fail.

it's a good sign that we'd be in for more of the same that that all the changes made have been nothing more than window dressing. it's a shout to the world that everything is fine here, even though it obviously isn't.
