Hopefully it will end with him. I know one player didn’t want to change number a couple of years ago

Might not mean anything to you, that's probably never played for the team, but just sit and bitch. But for those guys, it may mean something. Just don't understand why people shite on everything for no reason at all.

And I'm sure you did play for the team, right? And because I scoff at the number thing you decided to bitch about the one word I typed, so pot meet kettle (your name even says it). We're not the players. We're the fans. They like piped in music. You telling me you've never "bitched" about that? As a fan, not a player, I think anointing numbers is kinda silly, but I am absolutely for the players doing whatever makes them happy. They don't give a shite what I think, I know that, so why does it make you so upset? At least its the #18, and not the #7--don't get me started on that. Geaux Tigers, enjoy the game Saturday, and lighten up Francis.
