The only reason I'm posting this is because I seem to remember the league considering (or now allowing) use of the number ZERO, and one of the guys we drafted (I thought it was either Hyatt or Gray) wore number 0 in college.

Are you talking about this guy?

[Bob In PA]

There he is. 

Ever since you posted the thing about the Eagle petitioning the NFL to use number ZERO, I heard no more about it.

Maybe their suggestion was voted down at the meeting.

Hyatt apparently doesn't like the number 84. You might want to wait until after the final cuts if buying a jersey is on your mind.

OK, memory is not what it used to be.  What's the deal with 61.

Nothing, no one of note has worn it. Schmitz college number was 60 but he didn't want to pay mckethan for it so took 61.
