Hey people! I am new to the warpath. since we are on the subject of numbers.....I am wandering if anyone knows why S. Taylor went from #36 to #21 last year?

If I heard right a while back, I could be wrong though, I think its cuz he wanted to have the same # as Deion Sanders, he idolized him or something, but at the time Smoot had the #21..

Like I said I think this is why. If Im wrong someone please let us all know.
Thanks

Don't recall Taylor ever idolizing Sanders. Think Smoot mentioned idolizing Sanders. F*** Sanders. Taylor took #21 to become the next Redskins folklore at #21 like Mike Nelms...

I've got no problem with the NFL changing it's policy on the numbering system. What I do have a problem with is the NFL changing it's policy because golden-boy Bush whined about it. Plenty of players have requested different numbers (Edgerrin James requested #5 I believe three seperate occasions and was denied). How come the system is perfectly fine until Bush complains?

It could have to do with the fact that Bush has promised to donate something like 25% of his take from jerseys sales to Katrina relief if he gets #5. But even that's sort of crappy, because he very well could have donated money from the sales of whatever number he takes.

Ya in my opinion they should have waited a year or so and then announced it the week after the super bowl, instead of making it seem like they did it for Bush. It could be pretty cool though to see some of the numbers incoming players and current players come up with.

NFL | League to change uniform number rules

ESPN reports the NFL has decided to change their policy regarding uniform numbers. No details of the agreement have been disclosed.

Looks like Bush might get his wish. Not sure if this will effect any skins. Im interested to see the details when released. I hope Reggie Bush is garbage in the NFL. What do u guys think

Can you post the link to that story? Thanks
