So when I watched the Wilfork mic'ed up thing, I chuckled at his "you're the black Tedy Bruschi" line.
Got me kind of thinking how odd it is to see guys wearing the jersey numbers of past players who contributed to the championships. Ty Law's #24, McGinest's #55, even Bledsoe's #11 seems up for grabs. I realize football teams have to be a little stingier about retiring numbers because they've got to put 53 guys on the field.
One number that hasn't shown up, though?
Troy Brown's #80.
Aside from #12, you think any other digits are off-limits when the team turns over its roster again?
