The R.I.P. Thread

Actually, I was thinking, wouldn't it be nice if every team could retire 1 person's number for the whole league? If more than one team wanted to retire the same number, it would go by which player was drafted first. So, the Bulls could retire #23, and, from this point forward, there would be no more #23 on any jersey. The Jazz would try to retire #32, but the Lakers would do it first for Magic, so the Jazz would do #12.

Or, if not retire the number, make it so every player who wore that jersey, it would have the legendary player's name on the shoulder, or something.
 
The only person to not be able to put all his rings on his fingers individually. That alone is huge.

Though I'm sure if Wilt was that good and had won 11, he'd have put his extra ring on his you-know-what.

These idiot players would want to retire Kobe before Russell.
 
Pulitzer Prize winning historian David McCullough died yesterday at age 89. I've read several of his books and find them fascinating. His book on the Wright Brothers was my favorite. Sad he's gone.
