Kasay Told Gano To Wear #4, So Shut Up Already

For the first time in franchise history, a player other than John Kasay – and another kicker, no less – will don the No. 4 jersey for Carolina in a regular-season game.

But Gano got Kasay’s blessing before outrage could set in.

“I talked to John Kasay about it. I know him pretty well,” said Gano, who wore No. 43 at Florida State and No. 4 with the Redskins. “We talked about it and he was fine about that. It was my number I had before, so I feel comfortable with that.

“John was a great kicker. He’s a guy I watched for years. I love the No. 4, so I feel very happy to be able to wear it here.”

That doesn't make it any less wrong.

That's like your best friend asking if he can date your ex-girlfriend. You're probably going to say yes, but your not going to be happy about it.

I'm just going to laugh at my friend and ask him how my dick tastes. Then tell him about her salad tossing fetish.

I'm guessing you haven't been around the Panthers since the conception of the team. John Kasay embodies what the Carolina Panthers was and should be (not what it is currently), the Panthers Organization made a mistake in letting him go but are to prideful to admit that they made a mistake and re-sign him.

Me? I've followed the Panthers before they even played a snap. But I'll say the same thing I said in the other threads. I'd be willing to say, us fans are more upset than Kasay himself. Why get upset over something that doesn't even upset the man the number is tied too?

it's more like the situation you described except a bunch of people external to it are telling you how to feel.

Don't get me wrong, Kasay cares way less than the Panthers fan base but to allow a kicker that most likely is just a rental to dawn the number four is pointless when there are so many more numbers he could take.

Individuals that have been fans since the conception of the team will understand me a little better. That is no shot to you or anyone else (for all I know, you have been a fan since the conception), it's just plain and simple... next to Sam Mills; John Kasay embodies what the Panthers Organization was all about (WAS... all about).

See my first post...

Do you really think Kasay would say that he doesn't want Gano to wear his number? Do you honestly think Kasay would have said no?

How exactly does he embody all that? By being some guy who kicked for a long time?

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
