Pen Fun Club www.NovelMTL.com, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the King of the Bay Area!

The jersey number is very important for every player. Many times, in the early days of entering the professional arena, for new players who are one-year, two-year or after transfer, the coach is calling for their jersey number, not their name.

In a sense, the jersey number is the incarnation of this player. So in the professional arena, every team has a retired number to show respect and admiration for a particular player.

Nonetheless, on the professional arena, the change of jersey numbers still happens frequently, even more frequently than expected. After the transfer players and rookie players enter a new team, changing the numbers is a high probability event. Only a few top big players can have the privilege to stick to their numbers and make their numbers part of their careers.

It can also be said that in business alliances, jersey numbers are only part of the benefits.

In fact, even legendary places like Joe Montana have changed their jersey numbers. During the 49-year-old San Francisco, he recited the number 16; at the end of his career, after transferring to the Kansas Chiefs, the code was changed to the number 19. However, when the San Francisco 49ers retired jerseys, they still officially retired the No. 16 jersey, becoming a symbol of Montana in the city.

In the league, some players have a superstitious obsession with jersey numbers, firmly believing that a certain number can bring good luck to their career; or that a particular jersey back code has a special meaning to themselves, commemorating some And certain things.

Therefore, after the transfer, they are willing to complete the number exchange, some people are through good relations, and some people simply through cash transactions, of course, as the number owner of the exchange object, not everyone is willing to nod of.

Contradictions in the dressing room caused by the jersey number are not uncommon.

It is worth mentioning that in the rugby game, because of the large number of players, because of the cumbersome position, and because of the clear division of labor, the league has implemented relevant regulations on jersey numbers.

First, the No. 0 jersey has been cancelled.

Secondly, between No. 1 and No. 9, only quarterbacks, kickers and abandoned kickers are allowed to choose.

Between the 10th and the 19th, only quarterbacks, kickers, kickers and wide receivers are allowed.

Between the 20th and the 39th, only running backs and backcourt defense (second-line defense) are allowed.

Between the forty and forty-ninth, only running backs, backcourt defenses, linebackers and near-end forwards are allowed.

Between the 50th and the 59th, only linebackers, defensive strikers and centers are allowed to choose.

Between sixty and seventy-nine, only offensive and defensive lines are allowed to be selected.

Between No. 80 and No. 89, only wide receivers and near-fielders are allowed to choose.

Between the 90th and the 99th, only linebackers and defensive strikers are allowed to choose.

In other words, the player's position determines the player's number.

This is not a hard and fast rule, it is just a conventional rule. If the player must break the rules and choose a different number, this is also allowed. Correspondingly, the league has also set a hard rule, choosing No. 50 to No. 79 Players from the 90th to the 99th must declare their specific positions in advance.

The reason for this is that the referee must judge based on the jersey number on the court, whether there has been an illegal violation of the offense or defense this time; and for the commentator, just reading the jersey number can immediately determine The range of positions above the course also makes it possible to master the entire course and the match more quickly and easily during the game.

Overall, all players in the league still choose their numbers according to such a conventional scheme.

Logan Newman, near end, No. 88.

Marcus Lynch, running back, No. 27.

In addition, quarterback numbers are only allowed to be selected from number one to number nineteen.

Peyton Manning, number eighteen; Tom Brady, number twelve; Aron Rogers, number twelve; Drew Brice, number nine. In addition, Alex Smith, number 11.

When he first entered the team, Lu Ke's number and Alix overlapped. As a substitute for the rookie, Lu Ke naturally did not challenge Alex's qualifications, and naturally changed the number. Number four.

Lech only said one sentence, the main content of the latter has not yet been spoken, but Lu Ke has already understood, "Alix has been transferred successfully?"

When the regular season ended, Alex had already greeted Lu Ke in advance. Lu Ke knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it so quickly.

According to the normal process, after the Super Bowl ends, the league has an official timeline for all plans for the offseason:

On March 14, the free market was officially opened; in late April, the draft conference; in early August, the Hall of Fame preseason announced that the new season officially entered the start-up phase; the first week of September, the new season regular season opener.

Different teams have different plans for the offseason. Some teams ca n’t wait to complete the deal on the first day of the free market; some players are not slow or even wait until the draft conference is over before entering. Free markets fill gaps and fill gaps. Of course, trading rumors and contract renewal rumors throughout the offseason have never ceased to become a beautiful landscape of the league.

After the opening of the free market this year, the heaviest news is tantamount to Payton Manning's transfer.

The Hall of Fame-level quarterback, trapped in a neck injury, had to choose surgical treatment, was absent for a whole season, and expressed the willingness to play for the Colts for life for the life of the Colts, before the 2011 season, still There are a large number of diehard fans who believe that without the Big Manning Colts, they can still maintain a medium level in the league and even hit the playoffs.

But the thirteen-game losing streak was like a heavy punch, deeply letting the Colts understand what Big Manning meant.

Since the 2009 season, the Colts have been declining step by step, but Big Manning has relied on his own power to support this team. With one victory after another, he concealed all the problems and proved his elite quarter. Wei's ability also makes people think that this is still a champion. Until now, the problem has been completely exposed.

The Colts realized the seriousness of the problem and the importance of overthrowing the reconstruction.

The old Manning has become a forsaken child in the game of business interests and must be sacrificed. The team does not think that after a serious injury, Manning can represent the future of the team, and this year's draft conference, Before the rookie training camp began, they selected the team's pillars for the next ten years, just as they saw Big Manning in 1998.

After the playoffs ended, the Colts have already started to clean up the team one after another, and gave Manning an ultimatum in early March. They did not give Big Manning other options.

Historically, the Hall of Fame quarterbacks such as Sonny-Jurgensen, Joe Montana, Brett Favre, etc. have all moved to different teams, but they all have one thing in common. After consuming all of his life in the home team of the mother team, after exhausting the exhausted lights, in his old career, in order to continue the length of his career, he joined other teams.

The most direct proof is that in the history of the league, none of the quarterbacks representing different teams won the Super Bowl.

Thirty-five-year-old Manning also entered the end of his career, but was abandoned by the team due to injuries throughout the season and was squeezed by a rookie who has not yet entered the professional league. This is the first time in history.

Business is business after all, and benefits are interests after all.

After the opening of the free market, it is no exaggeration to say that half of the league's teams extended an olive branch to Big Manning, even including the San Francisco 49ers.

The 49 people in San Francisco who had just achieved brilliant results last season warmly invited Big Manning to join.

First, they have a long historical tradition of great quarterbacks. Second, the offensive and defensive groups have gradually grown in strength. Only one top quarterback is needed, and they are the strongest in the league. Third, Lu Ke is a rookie quarterback, and Big Manning can become the most perfect mentor.

But in the end, Big Manning rejected the San Francisco 49ers, just like the Arizona Cardinals and the Seattle Seahawks.

Because Little Manning is in the League of Nations, in order to avoid having a fight with the same room, Big Manning rejected the invitation of all the League of Nations teams, just as Little Manning rejected San Diego Lightning; for the same considerations, Big Manning knew that he would become the Colts 'S opponent, but unwilling to become the enemy of the Colts, he also rejected the invitation of the Midland South.

The Denver Broncos announced in a very low-key manner that after cutting off the "son of the natural selection" Tim Thibo, we welcomed Peyton Manning.

Because of the existence of Big Manning, the changes in the entire transfer market appear to be much lower-key. Alex Smith, the former No. 1 pick, did not receive much attention for his transfer, so it came quietly.

Lech nodded and affirmed, "Chief Kansas."

As one of the traditional strong teams in the Western Conference of the United States, the Kansas Chiefs do not have strong power, but they can always inadvertently disrupt the league. In 1969, they once won a Super Bowl championship, but now this team from the offensive team to The defensive team is all a problem, and even if the reconstruction is overthrown, things are definitely not that simple.

The only thing worth affirming is that the three quarterbacks in the Chiefs are now below average. After Alex went to Kansas, he was bound to be the starting quarterback.

"Now, the number 11 jersey has been vacated. Trent called me specifically. If you want to change the number, there is no problem with the team. They can immediately produce a new jersey."

This is one of the important reasons why Lech came to the training ground today.
