Cool Jon Beason article

[Wundrbread33]

I was looking through my closet before the game, and I saw a white "52" jersey hanging there.

I proudly slipped it on over my hoodie (layers) and headed out the door.

I know it wasn't a current players jersey, but Beason was another player who embodied "Keep Pounding." He gave everything he had to this team: to their success.

This season isn't just about the current guys. It's about building our legacy, and we are taking all of our warriors with us.

Believe it or not... 

Jon Beason was one of the people who really foresaw the success that Carolina is seeing now. Before there was Luke or Cam, Beason and TD were the heart and soul of that Carolina Defense. He wanted to see a dynasty in Carolina... but never got to see it realized. 

I respect him much more than alot of other former Panthers. When he retires, I hope he goes into coaching... He epitomizes "Keep Pounding."

I really loved Beason and I thought it was absolutely idiotic for us to draft Keek. What great foresight Marty Hurney had

One of my top five favorite Panther players of all time. He was a great guy on and off the field and I wish he could have finished here in Charlotte but that's the business and it is what it is.  During this Super Bowl run I think about guys like Smitty, Beast, and even D-Will and how much I enjoyed watching them play and how much I wish they could have been here to share this moment.  But I realize a team with those guys wouldn't be this team and the stars had to align to get us here. 

That said I still have a Beason jersey I would loved to get signed by the man some day.

I was so mad the lb corps of him, Kuechly and TD never came into fruition.  Shaq is a nice consolation.

Shaq isnt a consolation though....he is the future! Mad respect to Beason and all, but I think Gman has proved the direction of this team is the future...not the glory days (players) of the past

Absolutely love Beason. One of my favorites. Wish he could have moved outside and we had Davis, Luke, Beason. Just imagine that.

Imagine the tough cap decision that wud have been if beason stayed healthy and beasted here lol

I always loved that video.  It's unfortunate he couldn't stay healthy, his '09 season is one of my favorites from a Panthers player on defense and he always seemed like a good, well respected guy.

Awesome find!

Who is this guy Beason? I've been a life long fan for the past 2 years and I have never heard of him.

Somewhat serious here... Trade Klein for picks and bring back Beason for vet min as depth next year? Obviously injuries have affected his play but he was still solid when healthy with the Giants in '13.

Super,super guy!  Sure did hate to see him leave.

Great article. I wish him and his family the best!!

Davis coming out against the Packers with Beason's jersey after his achilles injury - and just before TD tears his 3rd ACL.
