    They've stepped up their coverage. Tons of summer school stuff.

    It's about time, though I will definately take it. Maybe one day they will actually replace Mixon with Szokie and it will all be good. :dead-horse-fast2:

    This Andrew Mason guy seems to be more in the mold of a true beat journalist than the old writer (Borden), who seemed to write only stuff that was headline worthy. Junkies like us want ANY info...it seems like the new guy is going to give us much more coverage that the fans want, not just what the larger media outlets would give us anyhow. Typically, those other sources would scoop the coverage even before Panthers.com got it posted.

    If they'd fix their video format so Mac users could view, I'd be happy. It would make up for Mixon.

    Agreesome. That site hasn't even been close to the industry standard.

    I really like the daily coverage of summer school even if the news isn't all that newsworthy. Take Hackett being back at practice today; there was a write-up on it. Is that honestly worth an article? To most, no, but for us die-hards...YES!

    Anyway, Hackett's knee flares up periodically and ice/rest for a bit is all he says it really needs. D.J. said that it felt fine today.

    Just went over there. Big improvement, the new guy seems to be working it.

    Thank you, I got all that stuff. WMP, Flip for Mac, latest Flash, etc.

    For quite some time Mac users have had to go to a different page and access the media through downloads, and they lag behind in posting the recent stuff. If something went on their front page today, it would be several days before it would be where I can get to it. I wrote to them last year complaining, and again this year. It shouldn't be too darn hard to format the site so we Mac people can get some functionality, but apparently we're freaking second class to the Panthers.
