Signing shaq makes sense now


Carolina Cajun

Recommended Posts

Seriously, at the time everyone was confused as hell but I think it was known this was happening.  It also makes sense why david tepper had a long talk with luke after the last game of the season.  Stuff that seemed wierd and off makes a lot more sense now.  This thread is to discuss that aspect of Luke's retirement and the future of shaw at middle linebacker.

Some of us said this a month ago. But I figured Luke would finish out his contract. Don’t blame him a bit but the writing was on the wall when we signed shaq midseason after rr was fired.

Yea, a bunch were saying that Shaq's contract meant Kuechly wasn't going to be here. Now we know that was true and why shaq got paid so early.

Yeah. You don’t tie up 100 mil in linebackers. You cant win that way. I figured we’d try to trade Luke this offseason or he would retire within the next two years.

    • T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
