The Morgan Fogarty thing...

I didn't see it as sexist or anything.

Sitting in the front row is what reporters work for. Its a sign that you have arrived. True for white house pressers, true for any presser. JR did not ask her to sit up front because she is an attractive female. He asked her to sit up front because she had established herself as a reporter in JR's circle of trust.

Yes, other reporters threw a hissy and jumped on it as sexist. But to assume an attractive female (why is this fact even brought up by reporters) can only be asked to sit up front because of her looks is in itself sexist as hell.

Buncha idiots, the lot of em.

I agree for the most part. She may very well have deserved to sit in the front, although I can't help but wonder if he noticed she wasn't because of her hotness.

She may have also been spreading them legs, which would explain the rambling distractions, that slurring speech thing, and hitting the mic with the back of his hand repeatedly

An owner that can't be bothered to remember the names of the reporters that have worked the Panthers beat for years immediately invites one of them into his private suite and subsequently his circle of trust after she called him out on air for being cheap. And you guys think that this new found attention may be based on her looks?

*rolls eyes*

    • Absolutely. He just turned 27 a few days ago, so quite young. He and Moehrig would be quite the pairing.  I know we say this every year, but this FA period has A LOT of talent that will be switching uniforms. We were aggressive last year and have no doubt this time next week will have some studs on defense.   
    • DJ Moore has always been a bit of an enigma. He came here young, flashed a ton of potential, but never truly grew into a real #1. He’s had a few good reasons, but yet to have a real monster season (outside of his first year with Chicago) We’re still waiting for him to blossom, but he will be 29 next season. I fear that it is too late for him at this point.
    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.
