Kasay's letter to fans...

[pantherfan82]

I'm gonna miss #4.

[Jackofalltrades]

He will be the next one to get a statue and have his jersey retired.

Definitely should be.

[pantherfan82]

Definitely should be.

I agree

[scpanther22]

It was time to move on but he's a class act.

About the superbowl kickoff, I remember what Steve Smith said in the post game interview when that came up. "If it weren't for that guy we wouldn't even be here." There weren't many mistakes, and when that happened, he was the first to admit it and take the blame. If he doesn't get picked up, maybe the we could hire him as kickers coach.

His was the first jersey I bought. I will still wear it proudly.

Eagles kicker David Akers just bought a billboard near the stadium in Philly thanking the fans. Step up your game Kasey!

Joking....Kasey is a class act.

K-A-S-A-Y

Just sayin'.

No clue how it happened but it was probably 1999-2000ish and I was at an athletic banquet for my middle school (very small private school) and in strolls John Kasay as our guest speaker. He probably did it all the time around the Carolinas but looking back on it (as a 13 year old kid) I had no clue how big a deal that was. Very cool to think about now. He's one of the greatest Panthers of all time no doubt in my mind. We'll be extremely lucky if we land another kicker that is as consistent and durable as he was.

Thanks for the memories John, you are the man.

[Montsta]

The guy is a class act. #4 should definitely be retired.

[PanthaSan]

I will miss John, but (sadly) it is time to move in another direction.

I will still wear my #4 when I feel it is needed.

I will sign any petition to the FO asking for his number to be retired or a statue for him or both....

[cdandi1]

We should write a group letter to Richardson to retire the #4.

I would sign that letter

[Panthers8912]

wow really sad he was a great man and a great player he will be missed

[sunbunny]

I agree that his number should be retired. I'm going to miss seeing him in a Panthers uniform. :(
