it's a figure of speech. he's not literally calling beason trash any more than sports writers were calling john fox a hobbled mallard in 2010.

 

I know what you're saying in theory, but this is a figure of speech that is usually used in reference to inanimate objects, not people. In fact, I have never heard of it being used in reference to a person.

I truely doubt his intended meaning is at a person either. Maybe he used it in the sense that he believes beasons best days are behind him for our team, but a treasure for another team.

I will admit though it does seem like a stupid phrase to have used.

      Panthers schedule is out

      By jfra78 · Posted

      I've actually been very complimentary of him.  I have said that I think he will get the bulk of receptions and yards. I have said I think he will be a 1k yard reciever thia year. He has issues tho and I guess no one is allowed to point them out.

      We don't have to lie, 4.8 was official and there were scouts who had him in the 4.54 to 4.57 range

      Think the "official time" put out was 4.48, but there were a lot of scouts there who of course all had difference times as it's all handed timed by them.  Think I saw it as low as 4.43 and as high as 4.62 or something, but in the end it's all basically the same speed because 40 yard dash is so pointless. Anyone who complains about his speed is just someone who wants a Chase/Jefferson/Nabers style #1 as opposed to an Evans style #1 who isn't going to beat you because of his speed but his other abilities. In the end, he's fast enough for a player his size and surprisingly quicker and more agile than people give him credit for too. The real problem is that Panthers fans can't get our past big WR failures out of their head, they hear "big WR" and automatically see a plodding KB or Jarrett in their minds and assume that's also T-Mac.
