anyone got any idea what is number is going to be, he said c-mac can have 21, and he said he has his number already picked out, with a laugh. I'm thinking he is going to take 31, that would be funny, and all you have to do is get a new name plate for your old jamal jersey.

I'd guess not 31. He was extremely respectful of Jamal at the presser, and has said he is a different style of runner but those are big shoes to fill. That doesn't sound like someone who's going to use Jamal's number.

He was 100% class I thought at the presser. Made an excellent impression on me, notwithstanding his supposed baggage.

the only #'s he could take are 23,31,34,37,39,41

I was thinking 34 since Ovie left. Plus, why as a running back would you not want number 34 to honor one of best running backs of all time?

34 would be ok with me , but i just have a gut feeling it is going to be 31

I would agree with #34. I like it. I have a feeling though, that he will wear whatever # Ed Carroll gives him :laugh: .

He might take Tom Matte's old number 41.

28 is available too.

That would be my guess.

My guess is 37. I'm sure Deion was one of his idols growing up.

Yeah I agree with the 37 thing. 31 would just be... too odd...
(no numeric pun intended)

But I am excited to see him run amuck in opposing Ds in purple!
Is it football season yet? :p

He was also drafted with the 23rd pick in the first round.

well, dont I feel like a dumbass now....

Hey I know it's kind of early but my birthday falls on one of the ravens game this year, and I couldn't think of a better present to myself then tickets to a ravens game.

Do any of you think you will have an extra for Oct. 2 I don't even care who we play........

Michael Jordan anyone???

October 2 is a Tuesday? I don't think the NFL has scheduled a game on a Tuesday in recent history.

By the way my B-day falls on a Sunday this year (October 7). Maybe you have a typo and your B-day is October 21?

Also, don't forget that there is the possibility of a BYE week in October or it could be an away game. I don't think the official schedule comes out until draft week. But I wouldn't mind spending my B-day in San Diego if that is our away game on Oct 7!

If you make it to the San Diego game I’ll see you there.

Barring any great tragedies that would keep me from making the game.

I believe the schedule comes out during the third week of April.

DAMMIT you guys are right, I thought since the 2nd fell on a monday last year it went backwards but it is on a tuesday. Either way If anybody has an extra for the closest game I would like to buy it...

Speaking of scheduling, I think we have a good shot of playing in the season opener.

Ravens Colts game from the playoffs.
@ Indy
Ravens have made changes, McGahee will sell
Who else looks like they would be a better game??

The Indy game will be at M&T, so we won't get that as the SB Champs always open the season at home.

And I'd rather not play them on the season opener anyway. Remember what happened last time we did that? :grbac:

Yeah your right.

The last time we played them b/c of division standings we played in Indy.

Maybe just a regular Sunday afternoon game would take some of the pressure off our guys this time.
