Darin Gantt's Article

45 posts in this topic

Need a tissue guys? The dude is right. Get over it. For as much as this fan base loves to tout the toughness card, they sure sound like a bunch of whiny, pre-pubescent brats. Oh boohoo, he said a bad thing about the Ravens. That makes him a moron. :rolleyes:

 

Also, this is what's called a "column" or an "editorial." For the media illiterate, that means this is his opinion. And his opinion is more than fair here.

If this was about another team we would probably be laughing.  A lot of our fans seem to be able to dish it out, but can't take it.

I like to call those people "fair weather fans."

Don't ever find PFT articles or 'judgement' enjoyable

Maybe for TC, Harbs can post it on every locker so they have to read it everyday. Perhaps the message might sink in for some of them.

As I said on an article on that site the other day,all this drama our team is going through is going to make the opening story line to Americas Game:The Superbowl that much better when they're going over our offseason prior to winning superbowl 49.

I don't really see what the point of the article is. It's not good to have this many arrests, but outside of the Ray Rice incident they are all minor issues. Reid is probably not making the team and Thompson probably doesn't either. If they do get cut during TC, I hope this author prints another column about how Harbaugh handles the guys with issues, even though we all know it comes down to on the field performance.

The fact is it's the offseason and there are not many stories about the NFL right now, so these guys need to get clicks. This is the best fodder for the masses right now, even though the smart people realize these incidents are not reflective of The organization in anyway.

What is the history with the Ravens and Darin Gantt of PFT? I do not ever remember reading a more spiteful and just mean spirited article by a sportswriter. In his article he portrays the Ravens as if the team is filled with law breakers and lowlifes. I am just wondering what does his small mind he thinks the Ravens organization ever did to him? Or is he just some guy trying to stir something up with readers so he looks go for having an article with lots of comments? 

You just made this punk's day. This is exactly what he wants, infamy and you just gave it to him.

Exactly.  I was going to post something similar last night but deleted it because I wasn't quite as tactful in describing "the masses".

Meh, that's what happens when your players who represent your team act like drunken frat boys and shame the team, city and fanbase they represent. The Baltimore Ravens sadly deserve the disrespect they are getting, because it is the Ravens who are going out and getting in trouble with the law. The comments are harsh, the piece is accurate and not nearly as harsh as the comments below, but that's too bad. These players should be ashamed of themselves. Not a proud time to be a Ravens fan. Can't wait until training camp, and God do I hope this is the last bad thing I have to hear about one of our players.
