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*

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
