There wasnt any caveats to his statement though. Simply that Gore isnt the best player to ever put on the number 21 for the 49ers. Which is technically true.

RCB - ROBINSON - #40

DE - BLAIR - #94

OT - THEUS - #75

OT - FAHN COOPER #79

QB - DRISKEL - #6

RB - TAYLOR - #32

WR - BURBRIDGE - #85

LCB - PRINCE C-IWORA - #39


for giving out B.Y.'s number I'm a total B.Y. and that number should be retired.

for giving out Willis's number for the same reason.

and for trying to give out Frank's number.

94 not as much, but like 97,52,and 21 may be unofficially/soon to be retired. 39 and 79 are retire, so there is 0 chance of seeing tthose on the field.

I would think Buckner would want 94 just based on him wearing 44 in college?
Garnett should take 69

69 is a wild card or joker, versatile.. Blair??

94 should be available ...

I agree

Numbers that are retired or off-limits:

8 -- Steve Young
12 -- John Brodie
16 -- Joe Montana
21 -- Frank Gore
34 -- Joe Perry
37 -- Jimmy Johnson
39 -- Hugh McElhenny
42 -- Ronnie Lott
52 -- Patrick Willis
70 -- Charlie Krueger
72 -- Thomas Herrion
73 -- Leo Nomellini
79 -- Bob St. Clair
80 -- Jerry Rice
87 -- Dwight Clark
94 -- Justin Smith
97 -- Bryant Young

That's too many for my taste. Only #s that should be retired are #80, #16, #42. Those are the greats of the greats.
I think they need to do something about retired numbers.. there is going to be waaay too many at some point. Like Yankee players and whatnot. Maybe retire the last name/number combo. Like a YOUNG/8 thing, but 8 is available.

Weve had this discussion before. There are 53 roster spots on an NFL team. The 49ers currently have 17 that are not usable. That leaves 29 un-used numbers. So by the time we run out of numbers due to retirement it will be about 130 years from now.

There are zero issues with the total of retired numbers currently, or going forward. Im not sure why some people are so upset by the fact that some numbers just arent available. Nobody should ever wear number 16 for the 49ers again. Joe Montana earned that honor.

I don't think they should all be retired. That was more of a "wtf happened to us" lol
