[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Holy shit.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Was there some Brewer pitcher who wore a number in the eighties? A Japanese guy?

Mills going the Sidney Crosby route. High digits became fashionable for NHL mega-stars since Gretzky took 99 (or maybe since Phil Espo's 77) but Sid the Kid went for 87 on account of being born on 8/7/87. That made a lot of folks feel old when he first showed up a couple years back.

Or Chad "Johnson." Or me in college, although I wore 17 because one of my brothers already took 85.
