[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 19919, member: 227"] Slick, I think that it is an honour to have your # retired, regardless of team. But for the Pack, I don't mind them retiring #'s. In fact, I am all for it. Just using Brett as an example (I know the Pack stoped retiring #'s long ago, but I think the Leroy and Brett should be two exceptions) the #4, in my mind and I am sure in other people's mind will always be associated with Brett Fave, the toughest son of a gun to play football. If I see a player other than Brett wearing number 4, I will still always think of Brett. Just as seeing Collins #36 brings me back to thinking about Leroy. But I can understand your argument that it would allow more clips of the players too be shown. But I still don't know. I think that the palyers such as Brett and Leroy (and I'm sure the other retired players numbers were great, but I unfortunatly never got to see them play) have made their numbers so famous by doing the things they can do that it is highly unlikey another player who gets the same number can do anything remotly the same. I hope that we see Brett's # retired, since we aren't going to see Leroy's. [/QUOTE]
