“I know I’ll come in tomorrow early and meet the coaches and I’ll get my linebacker coach (Jim Herrmann) and we’re going to cram,” Beason said. “If they ask me to, I’ll dress (Sunday) and I’ll give everything I have. … It’s just going to be terminology. I’m a smart player. I learn fast. Being a mike linebacker, a lot is on your plate. I think I actually thrive in that position. I’m going to get with coach as long as it takes and as fast as I can get it as soon as I want to play.

Asked if he knew his tenure in Carolina was coming to an end, Beason said, “I thought it was probable. And then when I wasn’t playing that much lately I said I know I have value. I know somewhere else could use me and they made it happen.”

He wanted to start at MLB again, he wasn't going to do that here, we got a pick, he gets to play, no hard feelings. Let's all be happy to see the Beast taking the field, even if it's bittersweet to see him in another jersey.

Thank god we have an organization that actually cares about the players that give the team all they got.DG gave JB what he wanted all along..,to be a starting MLB again.We didn't just kick him to the curb like some teams would have (look way down south in the Sunshine State for example).He didn't have to do this since JB wasn't his guy,but he knows a hard working class guy and wanted to help him if possible.

Rivera put this trade in motion; Jon came to him and asked for the opportunity.

      T-Mac or Nalo

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      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.......
