Remember Arizona......

To make it cheaper we could just buy 22 Shirts. 1 for each "starter" -- it would be easier for us to purchase then.

i think about that night almost everyday, sitting front row.

im all for the idea, we need to play with more of an edge.

wouldn't that alienate the other players. If you did that?

its a great idea, but i think you need to get all 53 players one.

Great read btw.

“we picked a bad day to have a bad day”

That quote made me mad as hell. What was the point of going 12 and 4? It was just another game they didn't feel like playing. :mad5:

How tough do you think it would be to get the Arizona Cardinals logo mid-field?

Now there's your motivation.

I found about $1.80 in the couch where can I send it too help the cause.

Remember the Alamo, Remember the Maine and now Remember Arizona

they would never wear them. no offense whatsoever, but it would be degrading to them as a team to wear them. it wouldn't motivate them.

LOL!!About as bad as "it is what it is"!

"remember Arizona"is the smartest thing Fox has said in a while,it was nessacery(sp)to say it!The team needs a mantra and an edge,I'm tired of the bland vanilla,laxidasical approach this team has a habit of showing!This team needs a hunger!

I would help support the idea with 50 bucks. But here is another. What if the Panthers would let us hang a huge banner on the fence at training camp near the entrance that people who attended could sign. At the end of training camp it could be taken to the locker room to be hung as a rememberance.

All in all I'd say it's a lot better motivator than "Don't be the wildebeest" :sosp:

(was that Seifert or Capers? I'm thinking Seifert but could be wrong)

Edit: Looked it up. It was Seifert.

(pretty sure that's the first and only time a search has been done on the terms "panthers coach wildebeest") :confused:

For the 1st time since 2003 Fox thought it was necessary enough to remind the players.

Its the 1st time since he told them they weren't tough enough to play in the NFL that he has made such a statement.

I think its something to build on.....

If others feel the same, then we will go from there. If not then it will die.

no harm no foul......

I don't think so. I think Fox just doesn't like the media and this is one of the few things that leaked out. There's no way Fox has had the success he's had by going into the locker room saying 'it is what it is'. He keeps his real thoughts behind closed doors and tell the media enough to get through an interview.

I'm not sure if it has to do with liking the media, but this is the way I see Fox. To some coaches, spotlight and drama are a part of the game. Fox shrugs that off. He has an operational mode that doesn't play well to interviews, hardcore fans or armchair coaches. The interviews give little insight on the inner workings of the football team or the content of closed door operations or discussions. The hardcore fans ALWAYS want more insight, not less. As for armchair coaches, they seem to find his media communication style a symptom of a lack of fire in the locker room.
