Dak is out, but we in the Fields of play- Dallas Cowboys 2020 season thread

[1thouwow]

I expect us to make the playoffs anyway, no exceptions.

Say no more

Its the optics. You see the number 88 you think DAWG or LION........ so when you see "Lamb" it just seems off.



10 would be better, but if he balls out...people will get use to it.

It's not even really about that for me because Lamb is a dawg. It's more about Lamb being kinda lanky (he's 10 lbs lighter than Irvin) and his last name only having four letters, so typography wise I think a narrow number like 10 would be a better fit.

After the Cowboys selected Lamb, owner and general manager Jerry Jones expressed the wish Lamb could wear No. 88 and told a story of a former Arkansas teammate, Jerry Lamb, who recently passed away and wore the number.

"We couldn't have won a national championship without him," Jones said of Jerry Lamb. "He was a wonderful player. This is a little drama from my perspective, but when we were all sitting there [during the draft] and had said our peace, then we said, 'OK. What's it going to be?' I said, 'In honor of my great friend that just passed this year, we're going to have his namesake come on over here and wear old No. 88 just like Michael and Dez and those guys. And we've got us a receiver.'

"Let me tell you one thing, if he's got the compete and heart of that Jerry Lamb, he'll be bad to the bone."

From Lamb's perspective how do you say no to that

Jerry: I want you to wear 88 in honor of my friend and teammate that recently passed away. We've also had some all time greats wear that number for us and I think you have that kind of potential.

CeeDee: Nah I'm good

Jerry:

I think Tavon Austin jinxed No. 10 for at least 2 years

#88 and #22 need to be retired.

2 Hall of Famers wore #22.

Damn. Didn't CeeDee say he wanted to rock his own number?

 

[Primetime21]

I dont have a problem not retiring numbers. I actually like the tradition of 88 but it should be a generational thing and it should be allowed to breathe.

This is the second person Jerruh has forced to wear #88.

He did the same thing when Dez was drafted.
