Does Nike sit in their offices thinking "this dude wore a #20 jersey in high school, better make all Michigan jerseys that number"? smh
You clearly missed my point. So let me reiterate. She bought the jersey this year. She asked who my all-time favorite player was first but she just as easily could have asked what my favorite number is. My question is what player gets paid for that jersey? An even better example would be jersey #7 as several players in the history of football have worn that number. Just because I want a certain jersey number & and I buy it this year doesn’t mean I want it because of the 3rd string QB with the same number.
