Retire #21

[rypper11]

I disagree with officially retiring his number. I think retiring his number now would be only because of the way he died. I think that we should remember and honor his life. His accomplishments on and off the field, not just the fact that it ended too soon. I actually would like to see CP or another close friend wear his number for the rest of the year and unofficially retire it in the offseason. When someone's life ends I try not to focus on the end of their life but on the life they lived and those that are left behind.

I never really thought of that.. That is a great idea, if either Moss or Portis switched to #21

that is a great idea. I wonder if it will happen. I was thinking of one of Sean's peculiarities his various alterations of the uniform, whether it was the socks or the tape on his fingers. I wouldn't mind seeing the guys do some of that as well. And we know Portis has no problem paying a fine to express himself.
