Yeah. I agree with the entire Dodger team wearing the number, because Robinson was a Dodger his whole career. But come on, there are no reasons for teams like the Astros or the Cardinals to do so as well. Like Hunter said, they're killing the meaning.
1 on each team(if they choose to do so) and the whole Dodger squad. That's it.
As far as the subject matter goes. It's not baseball's fault that most blacks prefer to play basketball. I don't hear people griping about the NBA betraying the white man. It's just not a big deal. If they don't want to play baseball, then it's their loss.
Dave's right. Jackie would be proud that they have the choice. That's the whole point.
Also please tell me I'm not the only one who thought of this when I heard Garret Anderson doesn't want to wear #42.
WHO DOESN'T WANT TO WEAR THE RIBBON?!
