    Because I'm looking forward to another exciting player wearing our #21 for example. I care :D
    What if said exciting player wears #43, would that make him less exciting because of his number?

    No.

    Would Del Piero have been less exciting if he wore #86?

    No.

    If Jerry Rice didn't have #80 would he have been less exciting to watch for the Niners? NO!

    You know what, I would say yes, it would make him less exciting back in 1995 and up until he himself made that number cool... but in 1995 it was fuckin exciting to check out this young kid who's wearing Baggio/Platini/Boniperti's number... in the "let's see what he got" kinda way.
    There's a sense of legacy/inheritance in these things.

    Maybe, I see more romanticism in football than some.

    Just saw the game. Imo we were shite. Two goals - first lucky, second nice, long pass from Sandro and easy finish by Favilli.

    I know this is beginning of season, but our style is so awful... Problem with exchanging passes :sergio:

    Good score, though. Lucky, but good :tup:

    I blasted Cancelo but the last part with inDa he got much better. Good job :beppe: :fab: I will shut up about him if he continues to get better. Yes, it's only 1 friendly game and we haven't seen him at RB or tested defensively.
    Listen to me. He'll be good for us @Bianconero_Aus

    Cancelo babbyyy :tuttosport:

    People used to say the same thing about hockey. In the past, hockey players would usually wear numbers from 2-29, goalies would be something like 1 or 30.

    Then Wayne Gretzky came along wearing #99 (two 9s for his idol Gordie Howe since 9 was unavailable). Phil Esposito got traded and couldn't get the #7 that he wore for years, so he took 77. Mario Lemieux wore 66 (upside down 99). Jaromir Jagr wore 68 in honor of the 1968 "Prague Spring." Now it's extremely common for guys to wear high numbers and no one really cares.
