Thank you David Glenn for your take on 89

From the original discussion...

 

 

Not that I expect that'll change anything given that your last several posts have essentially come down to "It doesn't matter what actually happened or what anybody says. Steve Smith is still right."

 

I listened to the interview. It wasn't as concrete as you purported it to be. Voth's opinion came out loud and clear amid some general points about what transpired during the season and after G-man had already axed Smith afterwards.  I never said Smith was totally "right" about everything he did. I never said he was an angel. What I did say is that he should have been notified during his exit interview (or soon thereafter) that he was going to be cut.  He wasn't. That's essentially what I said regardless of how you're trying to erroneously frame it.

 

You obviously feel that it was "right" for G-man and Rivera to handle Smitty's firing the way that it actually happened, notwithstanding what anybody says (except for Bill Voth I suppose), and that's your opinion.  It's disappointing to me as a Panthers fan that you would take that position, but it is what it is.

I'm not letting hero worship alter my opinion of how a 35 year old professional should behave (i.e. not like a spoiled brat)

    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep. 
    • Cooter was a good dude for sure. 
    • We both been here about the same amount of time. Whatever happened to Livermush? I know Cooter passed aways years ago...and so many others?
