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?

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
