Darin Gantt is a joke journalist, a Panther organization apologist, and a sad suckup

It's not just his latest John Fox dick sucking blog entry that pissed me off, it's the "lunatic fringe" part of it. Check polls on TCO's web site, the Jake haters are the MAJORITY, NOT a lunatic fringe.

Even if you take that stupid blog entry out of it in particular, it's worth noting that he does stuff like this all the time. Why do you think he's the only one that can constantly get scoops no other Panther beat reporter can? Because he constantly has his face up Fox/Hurney/Mark Richardson's ass. They only give the scoops to people that slurp them and Gantt fits the bill.

The problem I have with Gantt is that most people here treat him like some God for breaking Panthers news first, and mock any other journalist who makes notes on our Cats. The truth is that Gantt works in Rock Hill and maybe lives there too. I hear slugs move at a faster pace than "Rock Thrill" does. So he has nothing better to do than spend all day up in Charlotte and lick the taint of those who feed him info...which he promptly spits back out...verbatim. He's a suck up, this is true. He's objective, this is true. That's why Yaz left to goto ESPN, where he could branch out and talk about more than one damn thing evey day of his life.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
