Actually I think FOX is more like the kid who owns the ball. Remember when you were a kid, and wanted to play football? One kid always brought the ball and in most cases he was obnoxious and demanding because of it. If you didn't please him, he would say: "fine, if you don't want to play by my rules, I'm taking my ball and going home!"

Well, that's more attacking my choice of words, than my point. I might as well have written, "Matt has always been open about the fact he has other people to do the animation and writing process." That doesn't mean he don't have a hnad in the process, he supervises the entire process, and can at any point say no to things (like the internet scene in "A Bicyclops Built For Two" )

- what they say

Unless Cohen (or Groening) is credited as writer of a particular episode, neither of this is their doing. It's done by the voiceactors and the writer. Granted, the writing proces on Futurama is very much a group affort, but still the main writer make the bulk of the episode.
Groening and Cohen is more of a team in Futurama, and of equal importance to Futurama. Matt came up with the idea, and they both fleshed out the universe afterwards.
just compared to cohen he is second which if ive learnt anything from Futurama is a fancy word for loser
You learned that from Futurama?
You don't dislike Matt but think he's a loser?
