【now.com體育】車路士球迷對球會icon泰利推崇備至，如今傳奇隊長季後離開，這一切會be his epitaph。 撰文：Kate Wong
Epitaph意思是悼文或碑文，而be someone’s epitaph是一習語，指會讓人記住某人的說話或事件。例句：The words on the banner pay homage to the legendary player which will be his epitaph after his departure. （橫額上的字句向那傳奇的球員致敬，他離開後，那亦將會令人們記住他。）
儘管泰利的戰績何等輝煌，他也有事業低潮的時候，這也是普遍認為他為人divisive的原因。
Divisive是一形容詞，意思是具爭議性的，同義詞有常見的controversial。例句：The movie dealing with the divisive political issue has become the talk of the town. （那齣關於一政治議題的戲成為了城中熱話。）
Football is no one-man game. （足球不是一個人的遊戲。）泰利在Instagram上撰文道別時也有感謝同伴：“To have gone shoulder to shoulder in many a battle with you has been an honour.” （能一直和你們並肩作戰是我的榮幸。）句中的shoulder to shoulder 就是指肩並肩的狀態。
藍戰士icon泰利的離開，大概就是the end of an era（一個時代的終結吧。）
