Has anyone ever thought when they see a certain number it always brings someone else to mind?

I think Tramon Williams is wearing LeRoy Butler's number, that always comes to mind. When I see #84, I can't help but think of Sharpe. You know how #92 will always be Reggie's.

It even goes beyond that, Cam Newton is wearing #1, and I can't help but think of Moon everytime I see that number.

Nick Collins is wearing LeRoy Butler's number. Collins is truely missed, but I don't know what we would have done with out him in the Super Bowl.

When I see Jordy in #87 I also think of Robert Brooks and my old Willie Davis super-bowl hero's football card from like, 1989.

Absolutely, every time I see Greg Jennings I have to do a double take because in my mind, it looks like Jeff Query running down the field with his golden locks!

Whenever I see #4 I think of... Um... Old what's-his-face. I forgot who.

#12 Mr. Aaron Rodgers.

Whenever I get a softball T-shirt I always ask for #44.
That is also the number of Reggie Jackson and James Starks.

When I see Finley, for some reason it reminds me of Bubba Franks :).. Finley is better in every way and is a different type of player but just looking at #88 does.
