Danny Kanell Ignorantly Bashing Peppers & Michigan Fans

Submitted by Ricky Spanish on

On Twitter for roughly the past 24 hours Danny Kanell has been recklessly tweeting about Peppers, the diluted urine sample, his Orange Bowl injury, and the intelligence of Michigan fans. I never thought this guy was a clown, until now. 

 

On Jabrill Peppers intelligence: https://twitter.com/dannykanell/status/856568025562132480

Another tweet on Jabrills urine sample: https://twitter.com/dannykanell/status/856572345288445952

Ripping on Jabrill for being injured and Michigan fans for understanding that their player is injured: https://twitter.com/dannykanell/status/856863696638930945

A tweet from a man named Daniel Jeremiah defending Peppers regarding the Orange Bowl injury: https://twitter.com/MoveTheSticks/status/856853376918839297

and lastly, Kanell being an asshole to Daniel Jeremiah: https://twitter.com/dannykanell/status/856870410578800641

 

I can't believe ESPN still employs people this rude, and ignorant. Presumably, he has no more facts than any of us but continues to try to put Peppers in the ground. Sad

What frustrates me the most about this is that it is another example that ESPN (which is completely capable of actually being the worldwide leader in sports) is polluted with a ton of "analysts" like these aimed to piss people off, get clicks, get a response from the person in question, etc. instead of actually having insightful, smart, and entertaining (in a good way, unlike these people) reporters and analysts.

The crazy part about Kanell's take is most former NFL players have come out in support of Peppers and Reuben Foster. Joe Thomas explained it pretty well with some inside knowledge I didn't know. Joe Thomas went off on his Twitter. Not going to link all of them here, but I would recommend reading his Twitter feed for more.

soooo many ex-players that they could hire to talk CFB on TV. 

So how does Kanell somehow get (and keep) that job?

He always demonstrates that he is not smart, immature, and really has nothing useful to add.  He is just terrible at his job.  Yet there he is on TV.

Danny almost chose to play at Michigan. We were runner-up (imagine that) to FSU. I'm good with how things turned out. Still, I've often wondered why some players pull a 180 on a school that they truly liked and considered at one point (rivalries aside).

His tweets about the drug test are in line with what others in the media are doing, like it or not, but his tweets about Peppers' not playing in the bowl game deserve public censure -- from his employer.

If he's canned by ESPN in the upcoming round of job cuts, is there an audience that will miss him?
