I’m starting to get yahoo’d out

It's better than Cat Crave whose main writer seems more interested in shocking headlines, manufactured stories and and clickbait. Sometimes an inferior site and other sites follow that same modus operandi depending upon the writers. I'm getting to the point where I see one and say, "Oh that was written by Dean Jones," and I don't even click on it. 

There has been a decided lack of quality Panthers articles this year. All I can think is that Tepper and the FO must be affecting indepent news sources behind the scenes very negatively.

Jones tries to use those big fancy words, uses phrases like “those in power” and “surplus to requirements”over and over and he ends up making himself look stupid.

The thing that surprises me, also infuriates me is the small misses in editing these days. In this article it said Scourton was a third round pick. Yes, Cat Crave does go with sensationalist headlines and once you click its nonsense. Who would think we'd long for the Gaston Gazette days!

It’s because a lot of the yahoo type stuff is just “yahoo” sponsored garbage. And they just have to run it through grammatical AI correction rather than actual fact checking. 

a fun edit/add:

The CatCrave site mentioned is hosted by Fansided, and it basically does what influencer channels now do on Youtube with their titles.  It's an article title that is not properly reflecting reality.  Using WAY too active of words to describe benign things to get clicks--  

From that site:

"Troubling injury update on pivotal veteran has Panthers fans on edge"

Translation: Damien Lewis is week-to-week, should be good for week 1.

-

"Panthers’ crucial summer battle ends in sudden conclusion for one big reason"

Translation: Corbett wins the center job as expected

I agree totally.  I am to the point I'm not even interested in cat craves opinions.

SCOURTON

"While there will be a learning curve for the soon-to-be 21-year-old, the explosiveness and power from Scourton already translates. It’s fun watch Nic Scourton’s power and explosiveness."

THORNTON

"Thornton has good size and length at 6-foot-1 and possesses the physical temperament that could be helpful in man-to-man looks. He is physical in coverage, especially press-man"

-----------------------

Redundancies in back to back sentences? Smells like an AI article to me, or at least assisted and not proofread.

Most of this drivel is AI generated. It's pathetic.

All of the yahoo articles being linked are simply pasted PanthersWire (USAToday) material.  They credit at the bottom through a link (profile: Jared Feinberg - Writer @ThePanthersWire Contributor. NFL Draft analyst. Autistic. Opinions are fluid. #WNCStrong)   

So linking to a site that pastes articles produced by another site.  It's all just content aggregation on wire platforms

I hate media these days so much...flames, on the side of my face

    • I mean, yes, there is a difference between looking at a box score and watching film.  But PFF has a big subjective aspect to some of their grades.  That's how you get a 2/4 being better than 3/5 with a TD.  You aren't using stats at that point or factual events, but subjective analysis of plays.   And it's not like it is the same subjective analysis applying across all the players.   Same guy grading BY's incompletions (which are putting him over the top) isn't grading everyone else's incompletions and completions.  So it's different subjective takes/viewpoints applied.  There is no way everyone at PFF views grading out a play the same.  Then it all dumps into the same spreadsheet.  Hit the sort button.  Sometimes I feel it gets really weird and and collective data starts saying some weird stuff that just isn't true.   
    • Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.
    • I won't be surprised if Graham disappoints. Maybe not outright bust but never lives up to his draft status. The more I watched him at Michigan the more I came away impressed by the other Michigan DT. I think he might be the real player. Usually when you have two high level prospects in the same college unit one of them ends up getting fraud checked in the NFL as being largely carried by the other guy. Peppers and Ryan Sims at UNC comes to mind. Lavar Arrington and Courtney Brown at Penn State, etc.
