Occasionally we see the word sycophants in print- and the word has more than two syllables, which means that most people and definitely country music fans have no idea what it means. Sycophants, or a sycophant, are people that suck up – in lay terms – because they’re getting something out of the deal.
A synonym is obsequiousness. Celebrities who have an entourage – the entourage are sycophants. Congress and the White House, those are sycophants. Check that – those are parasites. The word has gotten in the news because of Wayne Gretzky’s support staff – supposedly he just got a bunch of his buddies to run a professional hockey team.
Sycophants aren’t worth blowing any money, payday loans or otherwise on.
