    	When I see the number 13 I think of Wilted Chamberlain and can't
    help but wonder that maybe, if he hadn't tempted fate by picking the
    unlucky number, he wouldn't have been such a choker in the playoffs...

206.16Not good with the number btwAKOCOA::BREENIt was in the bleak DecemberFri Jan 06 1995 12:478
    The most famous number of the New England "older" generation was #9 Ted
    Williams.
    
    #37 was originally Jimmy Piersall and later Bill Lee.
    
    7 and 77 were Esposito and Bourque (then and now)
    
    Frank Gifford was 16 of the Giants.

Never mind... it had nothing to do with the great figure skating debate of
'95.  I like KW... her (art) form is beautiful to behold.  Nice thumbs too.

    Wasn't Red Grange #77
    
    George do you mean Bobby Doerr?  I saw some games very young with him,
    Pesky and others but can only remember Dom Dimaggio and Ted (that was
    '50,'51.
    
    Mantle was 7 and Berra 8.  Numbers of players must be stored in a
    different part of the brain from say batting average numbers.
