WFNZ update


Zod

Recommended Posts

I'd be happy with an hour of silence instead of listening to Marc James. I hope they shift Garcia to the later time slot.

Back to the OP, good timing for Marc to leave. With all the guest fill-ins upcoming we will get a lot of Panther info from different perspectives. Hopefully we'll get a Jordan Gross fill-in one day.

Not sure what Gary Williams is doing these days but he was solid on the morning show. I would not mind

 

I think he's working for the Golf Channel. WFNZ would probably be a step back from that.

 

I just want someone who is passionate about sports in general and local sports specifically. Packer didn't seem all that interested in sports as a whole. Marc and Taylor were a little too interested in their own teams. I really enjoy the Mac Attack, if they could find that sort of dedication to local sports and self deprecation I'd be happy.

 

A thing I found irritating about the Drive was callers couldn't rip the hosts without getting cut off and lectured on why they were right. When the Panthers started winning and the fans wanted them to eat crow the response was "you guys are just being fans, no one would believe in this team". Sometimes letting a fan rip you or even admit you were wrong goes a long way. No one wants to listen to someone promote themselves for 5 hours a day.

That's an idea. I think Frank would be great in the later time slot. I have always enjoyed his show and he's a nice guy to boot.

That is one thing the morning show and Garcia is good at. They don't seem to take themselves too seriously and can see another point of view. I know some folks hate those shows but I think both were better than the afternoon one.

    • Man, we're desperate around here.  I had to look at Peppers' stats to see if I'm missing something, but no, he's an average guy at best.  Nothing impressive at all in his stats.  He's not a true safety at all, and I'm kind of annoyed with the jack of all trades players at this point.  Of course I see the PFF scores and everything, but I'm old school.  I believe the stats tell more about the player than the analytics.  This ain't moneyball here. (haha)  The best players put up numbers.  And when I look at the numbers, Peppers is just another player running around on the field.
    • People see what they want.  I have also stated since the moment we drafted Bryce….a badly owned team was screwing HIM over by setting him up to fail by coach/scheme design.   Core criticism isn’t actually Bryce…it’s Carolina/front office.  I could see Bryce being good.  I could see Canales being good.  But I don’t see them as a pairing.  Football is about fit.  Board is doing what the board does.  People were idiots who dared question the All Star staff.  People raged when Fitterer was criticized.  They raged when Rhule was criticized.   Until they didn’t.       
    • Yeah and to make it weirder Moehrig is a FS, Peppers is a SS.
