One Panther Place — New Blog

[mc52beast]

Can never get TOO MUCH Panther talk, thanks for the heads up and good luck.

Will you have Locker room section?  It was the best thing about Huddle.

[Black&BlueBubba]

Good luck bro. I will follow you on this.  

Harold Johnson is still around.  He is on the local radio show here in Statesville.  Love his show.  He is funny as hell.

I’m hoping to have Harold on one of my early podcasts. One of the best guys I’ve ever known.

Jokes aside: Thank you for the support.

No idea why he shouldn't be allowed to post this. It would be very very disappointing to find out that the things like this would be stifled.

Good luck

With all the media chatter this AM, thought it would be an opportune time to respectfully inform you guys I’m putting together a Panthers blog.

One Panther Place will launch next week. Podcasts, hype vid vignettes, long-form features and short-form analysis.

I took a stab at this 8 years ago with my blog, The 212 Daily, before Entercom hired me to do a top-40 morning zoo show (yea...good times). I’ve been following this team like a sociopath since the day Sam clinched their innagural win 50-feet from my chilly bleacher seat in Death Valley.

 Sidebar: My dad, Bill Ellis, is one of the Carolinas’ most accomplished media personalities (CMA-award winning morning show host at WSSL-FM, former weather anchor at WSOC in Charlotte, where I spent most of my childhood running around the set and newsroom.) Harold Johnson, by the way, was like an uncle to me—one of my heroes in the business. My aunt owned a Dog Bar in NoDa with Dan Morgan and Will Witherspoon, where we all got to know each other pretty well for a few years. I say this to highlight how LUCKY I have been over the years. These experiences have afforded me invaluable access and connections, and has given me a unique perspective on the mechanics of the media business.

I was a preps/college FB reporter for The Greenville News from 2003-10. Did two years at the Herald-Journal as an entertainment reporter (where Doug Stanhope, in a phoner, told my son “Santa Claus isn’t real, you little turd”).

I’m a middle-aged sales rep with three kids now, and need to write again. It’s in my blood. 

Been posting here off and on for years. It’s a superb hub for photos and fan interaction. That’s not my site’s deal, so please—keep visiting The Huddle and the great folks over at the @RoaringRiot. I know I will.

NOTE TO ADMINS: This will be my only pre-launch promotional post. Jeremy—if you need to move or delete this post, it’s cool. Keenly aware this is your platform, and don’t wanna whore-out too much here. It’s a one time shout out.

TL;DR: Hope you guys (and ladies) stop in to see us. Thanks for letting me steal a few minutes of your morning.

Not the only fella here with a sports journalism background. Best of luck on the blog. 

[The Huddler]

dude.   if Zod has a problem with this, I have a problem with him. 

 

 

dude gets $5 x how ever many All Pro member a month for literally doing nothing

[Cookie Lyon]

Good luck and ignore the posters that claim you're "stepping on Jeremy's toes."

[Seltzer]

I don't see how this will affect the Huddle in any negative way.  I was bummed when Bill Voth discontinued Black & Blue Review (although it did lead to him getting a job with the Panthers) b/c it was another quality site for Panthers news.

That being said, it in no way diminished my interest or involvement with this community.

And neither will this... I want to see all Panthers communities that provide quality content and/or engagement to thrive.

Best of luck with this new endeavor!

I remember the 212 Daily.  You had quality content... I remember wondering what happened to it but figured you didn't had the bandwidth to continue or had other commitments.

I'm sure Huddlers will post links to your work and then this site will give fans forum for further discussion about the content you post... Win-Win for everyone
