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

Ha....I said I didnt know who he was.

Rock Hill newspaper....why do we all care about this dude?

He has access to the players, often has information before anyone else, and typically knows the actual skinny while others speculate. He told us that Peppers was unhappy and wanted out before we heard it from Carey or Pepper's himself.

Unbelievable :nonod:

I really can't believe people are getting this dramatic over a news article.

Answer the question...

or are you afraid to?

I used to not know what that word meant.

Sometimes I wish I still didn't.

I dont get it

Because being called a "lunatic" unprovoked by a journalist is NOT a personal attack? Just asking.

are you waddling and quacking?

[Skew]

I dont get it

Is that Mt. Olive humor?

If so, I don't get it.

[Doc Holiday]

Thinking that a journalist making a general comment in a blog is a personal attack on you as an individual is a little crazy in my opinion. Unless of course he referred to you by name. Are you Sam Mills "lunatic fringe" Fan by any chance??

I was about to say the same thing, when you have to start reaching that far it's time to shut up.

[Fireball77]

Good grief...the tags on this one....

I find it funny that some people who like to cuss out & namecall individual players in nasty ways are ones who are insulted by a generically meant comment like "lunatic fringe"...but maybe that's just me.

[pantherboss]

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.

I guess you are part of that Lunatic fringe??

[Sandy Claws]

do you think it's just a coincidence that we haven't even entertained signing anyone?

Who was there that you think we needed?

[Panthro]

I do not believe he is a joke journalist but everything else you stated in the title is correct.
