Darin Gantt thinks conference championship rings are silly

At least, since the Panthers have won a conference championship.

The Panthers got their conference championship rings (which probably shouldn’t even be a thing that exists).

I googled "darin gantt conference championship rings" and, oddly enough, couldn't find any mention of Gantt's now-vocal dislike of conference championship rings... until now.

Weird.

it's that participation trophy mentality. the panthers players got superbowl participation rings and now they will lose all motivation to play for a championship because millenials think that participation trophies are the same thing as winning and america is going down the tubes because of the pussification of america and entitlement by tech-addled brats who don't want to pay their dues vote for donald trump.

Anyone my age (40) who bitches about participation trophies is full of poo. If anyone remembers childhood from the late 70s/early 80s everyone had racks of participation trophies from soccer, Basketball, baseball, swimming. Highschool letter jackets are participation trophies. What we really worked for was the gold medals, etc

This would have been good, but you probably should have backed it down to about 80% to be  effective.  The 120% method makes it too obvious.  :P

I guess me being a college football fan doesn't make this such a big deal to me.

Win the SEC?  Get SEC Champion rings.  

Its a TITLE.  You won it ON THE FIELD.  And you worked DAMN HARD to do it.

In other words, DESERVED.

Don't think Gantt's pussy ass played any sports to even know the difference between a part trophy and a ring for something...he damn sure obviously didn't win.

    • This And with possibly needing to replace Bryce next year and a deep QB class, I do not hate the idea of moving far enough back to pick up another 1st rounder next year out of the deal. I wouldn't have said that a week ago, but I also never expected us to land 3 big FA's at our 3 biggest positions of need like we have, it totally changes things.
    • The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.
    • These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.
