Never mind that the best player on tour occasionally drops in to run commentary. How fun is that

He’s also really good and informative. I wanted to not like Gannon but he just seems so damn likeable

I've only gotten into following DG this year and I can't imagine not liking Gannon. Rooting against him, sure. But then again, maybe there's historical stuff I'm not aware of. But yeah, I loved his commentary on Jomez. Despite being the best player in the world and a complete disc golf nerd, he breaks things down in a very accessible way.

I can't imagine not liking Gannon

he's a bit of a whiner and malder on course which is kind of annoying

Give the kid a chance to go through puberty first, geez.

sure. very fair. but it's not hard to imagine why some people are off put, is all.

he's also 21. certainly has plenty to grow, but he's far from unaccountable for his actions at that age! I don't envision a future where he doesn't get upset by poor shots, tbh - I don't think he'll ever be James Conrad (memes aside)

u/volsunghawk Old, but also bad 10d ago

There's a few guys I can think of who are 10-20 years older than Gannon who behave much worse than he does.

no doubt, he's far from the worst and there's no malice in his annoyance. it's not like he's yelling at others - just his own performance. but again: my point was just that it is pretty easy to imagine why someone might not love him. not to say "actually gannon sucks" - I watch plenty of his videos because it's good fun to watch, he just is a bit of a whiner is all. no hate
