I think they should just use barcodes on the back of the jerseys.
It's called a roster, the numbers are big, look at number then look at roster. And you dont have to get a program to get a roster. They hand free rosters out usually. If your eyes are bad, you surely can't see the name on the back any better than the number. I don't think it's a big deal. Just another excuse for someone to whine about something.

Just put the names on the jerseys, then hundreds of thousands of people (stadium and at home) don't have to look up who is who. It is a stupid ****ing gimmick to inspire the team to play like a team. Why not just ****ing do that anyway?
I just dont think its that big of a deal
It's ****ing stupid and our players are ****ing stupid for choosing to do this. I've told this to some of them.
I'd be more concerned if why we are rotating O-linemen instead. I don't give a **** if they're wearing pink ballarina outfits out there as long as they are winning.
that God a lot of this s hi t will end soon enough-
I think they should take the numbers off the paychecks......
Fixed for Coach.
don't like it- very fan 'unfriendly'
as I get older it gets harder to remember who is who on the field-
I think it's a ploy to make people spend $5 on a program :/
I'm okay with the absent names. It is a bit of a pain-in-the ass, but I like the concept. Good for them. If we're real fans we'll memorize the important numbers anyway.
You jackass! :lol: The point of no names is to say that every guy is just as important as the next! You're silly.
Hawk should get paid by the win...at 16-33, he'd be living in a van down by the river or a hotel room on colfax.
Great point! But some are more equal than others.
Maybe we should try to get the guys in the broadcasting booth on this, so they don't inadvertently call out someone's name after a great play.
I can remember how destructive it was to the team when the crowd yelled "Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Fannnnnigannnnnn!!!!" Tore those guys apart!
See I was too young for that. I don't think they did name calling for games during my upbringing. I think it may have negatively affected my whole generation, but I'm not sure how because I didn't feel like reading that article.
What holding up the 1 finger for Ben Kelly?
edit: I've set this up pretty well...
You say this in jest, but I wouldn't be surprised if at some point we don't have this, with a link to the scoreboard that shows exactly who is in the game at any one time.
