Former Panthers QB Cam Newton to be throwing at Auburn's Pro Day
Brooklyn 3.0 replied to Saca312's topic in Carolina Panthers
I will admit, I love the diehard fandom homers give toward Cam. Respect. You will die on your rock. Meanwhile, like any diva WR in recent history who makes a scene on social media or in public, other NFL fans want to steer clear. Teams too. Cam is no different IMHO. But yeah, you guys keep backing your boy no matter what. Props. -
When the source is from inside the organization, and the reporter is a respected and experienced one, they say: "sources within the organization on conditions of anonymity". This is not so the reporter can continue to get some SUPER SECRET SCOOP each week. This is so that source does not lose their job. Now comes the Twitter Reporter, where any tom, dick, or harry can try and make a name for themselves. Any of us could start an account and retweet news, get followers, try and break new news, etc. And as you do this, you'll come across other reporters like yourself. You build a network. Some of these reporters have lines to players, former players, team aides (not coaches), etc. NONE of those people know ANYTHING. Yet they "hear something" or "have a feeling" (or my favorite: "I think") and they share it with said reporter in normal conversation. They do not hop on the line and text the reporter something outright, nor does the reporter text "what do you know!?". It's organic. And when a nugget ... because let's be honest that's all it is, comes in a text, said reporter knows they have something that (drumroll please) will get them CLICKS, FOLLOWERS, LIKES, CLOUT, and RETWEETS. But out of respect to "journalism" lol, they add that their nuggest came from a "source". It's a buzzword. It's clickbait. And It's all BS. If any reporter, respected or not, had THE scoop or THE truth ... it would be something along the lines of: I have confirmation from inside the organization (blah blah blah) and they'd put their rep on the line for what they're telling us is factual. Not one of these Twitter Reporters know anything ... not even our very own Verge. All they know are someone else's opinion, and rumor. Hell, we used to think Zod knew secrets about the team but wasn't allowed to tell us, lol. I myself even knew things. And you know what? I told you all where I heard it. One of the team's internists (now retired) was very close friends with my mom and stepdad, Dr. Rob (Heyer). And even he only knew what players would tell him during treatment. That is how it works. Rant over.

Young: If they can't see me, they can't judge me.

Dude can CATCH the ball. Perfect for a rookie QB. We are a whole new franchise. Haven't been this jazzed for the team in a long, long time.

Marc Ryan - "Carolina Zeroed in on Stroud and Richardson"
Brooklyn 3.0 replied to CPcavedweller's topic in Carolina Panthers
Yep. Sooooo tired of Twitter and how soooooo many people take it as gospel. Unless someone tells you who their source is in the tweet, or says on conditions of anonymity ... it's BS. Everyone wants to be a twitter journalist with their "connections" or "sources". It's all crap. All of it. -

To a group that has someone as a minority Hawks owner? Weird. -
