in his 'tuesday a.m. qb' column', (the tastefully named) gregg easterbrook Wrote:
Reggie note: Many cannot understand why Bush is forbidden to wear No. 5. Offensive linemen must be numbered from 50 to 79 in order to help officials enforce the eligibility rule. Otherwise, who cares which player wears what jersey number? The NFL once forbade Brian Bosworth from wearing No. 44 at linebacker in Seattle, and this year will allow linebacker Julian Peterson to wear No. 44 for the same team. How silly it is to say the number system is critical in one case and can be waived in another! Except for offensive linemen, any player should be allowed to don any digits. That's the way it is in college, and the earth is not rent asunder. The NFL is at heart a form of entertainment, and watching Reggie jitterbug in No. 5 would provide maximum entertainment.

Que?

So does this mean Fu wants certain numbers retired or something?

No, no... Just, when discussion arose of Reggie Bush's request to persist in wearing the uniform number five -- which is 1/11 of a McGiniest, by the way -- even though the NFL's wardrobe committee (no, not the Queer Eye Fab Five) limits running-backs to numbers 20 thru 49, Brother Fu took a rather strident and vociferous opposing view. Either to be a contrarian -- which I don't really think he is -- or to be anal -- which he most definitely is -- I won't say, but, yeah...
