Love the pod.
I have a question about the new trend about rookies wearing retired special numbers.
Obviously, there's the Flores situation with Mendoza, but now Makai Lemon has taken nine from Foles for the Eagles, which to me as an Eagles fan is a big no-no.
Nick Foles is a backup quarterback who led us to our first Super Bowl.
No one should be wearing that number for a long time.
And although Foles is a statue, it's owned by Bud Light, so who knows how long it will stick around.
If Makai is a bust or gone in five years, I will never forgive the Eagles for allowing that.
Josh Sweat said he was not allowed to wear the number and Sweat won another Super Bowl for the Eagles.
Personally, I couldn't care less if they get the blessing from the original player.
This, to me, is an organizational call.
In general, what is the point of retiring a number if someone could just ask to wear it?
That's a good question.
I would say basketball where you got 12 players.
if you retired 15 numbers, it shouldn't impact you that much.
Because you've got so many options, you have so few players.
