Patriot Helmet Stickers

They are trash.

Not everyone had the stickers. Most of the Chargers didn't (I think Cromartie did, though). The Broncos kept all three stickers (27, 29, and the black 21). I can't remember all the teams that did or did not have the 21 stickers. I've watched a number of the games on the Ticket today, though, and it's not just the Patriots, though they conspicuously do not. It seemed like it was about 50/50, since it seemed like in a lot of games one team had the 21 stickers and the other didn't. Probably a little better than 50/50 though.

Flipping through the teams currently playing:

Browns: Yes
Jets: No

Chiefs: Yes
Broncos: Yes

Seahawks:Looks like most do, Kerney definitely, Trufant just scored and he does.
Cardinals: No, but Antrel Rolle does, Kurt Warner does.

Patriots: No
Steelers: Yes


49ers: Yes
Vikings: Yes

Looks like it might be optional on an individual basis. Most teams seemed to have decided as teams, but most Cardinals players don't have the stickers.

The only two teams that I saw that didn't were the Pats and the Giants. In any event, does it really surprise anyone that when the Patriots are one of the few teams to not do it? I don't mean to make it a bigger deal than it is, but I have grown to despise the Pats. It has nothing to do with their dominance (which I respect), it has to do with their utter lack of class. Between Belichick cheating on his wife, Belichick cheating in the game, Brady dumping his pregnant girlfriend for a supermodel, Belichick shoving reporters, Belichick publicly denigrating Mangini, Brady being an arrogant a**hole in press conferences, Belichick running up the score just to boost his own ego, Roosevelt Colvin doing the Lights Out dance after the victory over the Chargers in the playoffs, Jabar Gaffney mocking the Eagles' wings, etc. I hate that team with a burning passion.

The league made the "21" sticker optional for all teams after the first week. Some teams wore them today, some did not.

The Skins will wear the stickers and the patch for the rest of the season.
AWESOME sig. cpayne :)

All of the games I watched today the players had #21 on their helmet. This just gives me another reason to hate the patriots. I think it is completely disrespectful. Probably came straight from the head coach.

Gonna get beat up, but here goes. It is optional for every player. The Pats are unified as a team and do things of this nature together (for good or bad). They could have worn both, but IMO they probably would rather keep Hill's memory alive when no one else in the NFL was. I think trying to compare tragedies of this nature is disgusting, but no doubt Sean's murder affects us more as Skins fans and NFL fans more because Sean was such a dominating player and fun to watch.
Personally, I feel that Darrent Williams should have had his number on helmets for at least the first game.
And before people ask, no I don't like the Pats.

Have the pats been wearing 91 all season or all of a sudden?

Haha! Yup me too, f*** the patriots, no class.

I would expect nothing less from the league's least classy franchise. Their owner is a drunk, their coach is a punk, and their QB is an arrogant pretty boy.
And if they keep winning, their fans will start to hate them.

I'm sure to some extent they're saying "Why not the same for Marquise Hill?" But, as cold as this may sound, a drowning accident in the offseason is not the same as being murdered during the season.

And Hill was not nearly as well liked or important to his repective team as the pro bowler Taylor. As you say, it's a lot different to be shot and killed during the season as well.
