Yes, even then. Sorry, I think he's a jerk for still wearing it. I came to that opinion independently after seeing him in a game and realizing 42 was still in use despite its retirement. I don't like that fact. You won't change my mind.

It's my opinion, so I guess you'll just have to ignore it if you disagree, like I'll ignore you.

Everytime I mention this opinion, people assume I don't know all those things. I am well aware of them. I happen to think that a truly humble, classy person does not even insert themself into the comparison. A classy, humble person abides by the MLB-wide retirement and quietly picks a new number. That is why Rivera…

When a number is retired league-wide for good reasons, a classy person abides by it. No questions asked. Rivera is a classless hypocrite.

So what? Rivera should conform to what MLB does. They retired the number to symbolize the racial healing and he should have given it up. Sorry, I think he's a jerk.

I was also 42 actually whenI played in high school, not for any reason though.

I don't know who they are but yes, if everyone held them up as models of humility, I would find them to be hypocrites.

Every time I mention this opinion, people assume I don't know that he was grandfathered in. I happen to think he should have chosen to get a new number then and there. And don't call me dumbass.

I am not trolling. I would have stopped using the jersey. That is my opinion and I don't like Rivera because he didn't do the same. That's all.

I take issue with Rivera wearing #42 - it is supposed to be retired. A humble man, as everyone claims Rivera is, does not affiliate himself with a legend. And this headline is ridiculous. Like someone else said, will the Yankees do something for Ortiz? I doubt it.

Seriously! Fluffernutters (pb and marshmallow fluff) and the chicken sandwiches—see, I was telling the truth.

There's a restaurant I walk by frequently here in Brooklyn, they have one of those in the front window like it's a major draw or something.

I've never in my life eaten either a pb&j or a McD's or BK's hamburger.

Facts don't matter to Pats haters. It it tiresome but we must live with it.

The AFC West blows; FranzK makes a good point.

I can completely explain this. A lot of classics you read when you're discovering yourself and need emotional confirmation what you are going through is common and normal. So if you have never read a book, likely you never had that internal passion to see what became of doomed lovers (Jude the Obscure) or social…

I agree. They are rusty - plus it was only 5 DAYS OFF. They are still way better to root for than anyone else.

I watched after people said they thought she was off her meds. Uh, no—I work with the public and there's people who are that rude. It is literally unbelievable but it is true.

The worst was when two Jets got ejected and they just sat on the bench until Bill reminded the refs they had to leave. OH, that's what ejected means?

Eli does it - what do you think Manning face is? Peyton said he had an idiot kicker.
