ESPN is so fucking stupid

[Skew]

But go ahead and try to twist my words into me saying "ESPN disrespects the Panthers".

They're an equal opportunity disrespector . The argument is pretty much moot, all the small market teams get about the same level of coverage. If they have stand out (or problem) players they get a little more. Smith, Deangelo, and Beason are getting their share of noise, personally I don't want anymore until the team can't be ignored because their a perennial contender.

Rommo get's coverage when he farts.

That's fine who cares

[Jangler]

But you have to bring up that fact that you don't bitch and don't care about media respect, Jake, Peppers, Fox, in every thread.

Seriously, try something new.

For EVERYONE else's sake.

A new season always brings with it new hate.

I'm just wondering who actually repped him.

[Fireball77]

No, the reason they hate us so much is because it takes too much work to have real knowledge of a non major market team without increasing viewership.

BINGO. Media laziness when it's their job to cover the NFL drives me nuts. BTW you speak yankee just fine. The NFL Live guy who touted Carolina was James Hasty (former DB). He and Cris Carter are pretty good actually.

It was actually James Hasty who made the comment that we needed Brooks because Beason and Davis had never recorded and INT.

Oops! He giveth and he taketh away! I didn't hear the Brooks comment.

lol...I don't disagree with him that Brooks could be an asset to this team. He and Diggs would battle it out in Camp and our linebacker corp would only be better with his addition, however the comments about beason and davis with no picks was funny.

[Fireball77]

Ish..I'm just impressed someone in the national media knows the name of the Cats' WLB!

FFS please quit quoting Gman, I rather enjoyed having him on ignore...

Skew you have the calm of a monk. Kurb would have used the bant stick a long time ago just to prove a point.

[SorthNarolina]

to be fair derrick brooks is from a simmilar system that we have now and I miss the days of will witherspoon when we had the best cover LB in the leauge.

but overall it's a bad idea backed up with stupidity, i wish i could hit the writers of ESPN with a rolled up newspaper

[Peppa Jack Supreme]

Is it as bad as during this NHL playoffs they were calling the Hurricanes the Carolina Panthers and using the Florida Panthers logo? I know its the NHL but come on!

Here's another instance where the "experts" didn't do all of their homework. They are debating the impact of the "Wildcat" formation for the 2009 season, which teams will utilize it and how teams defend it. According to ESPN, Carolina was one of a handful of teams that didn't use the fromation last year. Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure we opened up the home game verus the Bucs with the Wildcat (I have the DVR footage to prove it). It seems the Panthers used it a few times, not nearly as much as the Dolphins, but another instance where the homework at ESPN wasn't done thoroughly.
