Numbers Assigned

With the new, very talented, frosh checking in on campus for summer school this week, things are starting to happen.  One of those fun-and-exciting-things is that the newly minted football team members are getting their numbers.

B&G does a great job of the historical background, so I just have a few comments:

• Mikey Floyd taking #3 shows he has some cojones.  I am calling this one:  he’ll live up to the number.
• Ethan Johnson and Kyle Rudolph sharing #9 is pretty sweet.  Especially since Johnson is on the DL.  #9 on the front line? I like it.
• Dayne Crist would like to follow in Brady Quinn’s footsteps.  Getting #10 makes sense then.
• Darius Fleming took Rudy’s number, 45.  Somehow, I don’t see this as a similar story.  Rather, it will be: Destroy Offenses from Day 1.
• Brandon Newman took the anchor, #99.  When he and Johnson line up next to one another someday, we’ll have 999…ways to the quarterback that is, oh! 

All these numbers got me thinking – we should really share our team members’ numbers with you all.  So, for the first time, we reveal them here:

• Bad Kermit – #0.  Dude never posts anymore.  Just comes around to mock pretty much anything I say, so he’s gettin’ the goose egg.
• SChisamo – #3.  Obvious reasons.  Just ask his wife.
• Father Birdonnell – #69.   Irony.
• DomerMQ – #2.  “Who does #2 work for?”  MQ gets this number because he’s the shit.  And #2.  Get it? 
• The Biscuit – #1.  Who else?

What’s your number?

 Go Arsh.
