I've always been curious as to why some people choose the numbers that they wear when they play in a beer league. Is it because that's what was assigned to you when you took over for some guy who left the team? A number you wore when you were a kid? Your favourite player? Whatever the case, what's your number and why?
I used to wear #67 for the LONGEST time - the reason being, as a kid growing up, I was a huge fan of the Penguins with Lemieux and Jagr - and I had a dream that one day, I'd be playing on their line. I always created myself in all of the EA NHL games, and that's about as close as I ever came to that dream.
Right now, I wear #5 because the GM of my team (aka, the guy who organized the team), decided that the better skaters should play as defensemen - so when we reworked our jerseys, I switched to #5 (my birth month and part of my nickname).
