Stafford will wear.. #9?!

[Calvin & Kevin]

:confused:

No link, heard it said on WXYT 1270

Guess I was wrong on that one. I wonder what his reasoning is for this.

[Xiomera]

I heard he would wear #7.

[georgiafan]

7 was his high school and college #, i bet he goes with that if it's open.

[Calvin & Kevin]

7 is retired. and I think he's making the right move by not asking to wear it anyway, that's a pure arrogance move and it's right for him to take a new number and make it his own thing.

[Addict]

7 is retired, Dutch Clark's number.

[WMD]

He should take #16!

Verified on Mlive:

Why are you going to wear No. 9?

"I wore No. 7 in college and in high school and it's unavailable. No. 9 was just the next number that appealed to me.''

Huh.

lol, little stiff but he'll get it. tonight is his E60 thing with maria sharapova. couldn't really say anything too shocking or cliche so i blame the writers, but a couple were decent.

This is sad, the new typeface makes the 9's look terrible. As a pretty young Lions fan, I can't remember any Lion good enough to have his number retired outside of Barry .... isnt that sad.
