Last year all the Brewers players wore #42.

This year our manager decided only one player would wear it. Rickie Weeks, Prince Fielder and Bill Hall were the candidates. Hall picked the name out of the hat and drew Fielder's name so I guess he's the only participant.

That's pretty stupid. He should let whoever wants to wear #42 wear it. Of course Ned is an idiot so this doesn't surprise me.

Mo Vaughn. Plus Manny is going to put his jersey on upside down, I think.

I think it's pretty cool that Mariano Rivera still gets to wear the number every day.

Are you serious? I thought he was still playing! Actually Girardi playing now would probably be better than Chad Moeller. :D

lol who cares if one guy gets to wear it. i am sure all the guys are so disappointed. i mean i am all for jackie robison day but the whole idea of players wearing 42 on one day just doesn't make sense to me.
