GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - The Green Bay Packers will retire Reggie White's number at halftime ceremonies of their home opener against the Cleveland Browns on Sept. 18.

Team president Bob Harlan said he had told White before his death last December that he wanted to add his No. 92 to the retired numbers listed in the north end zone at Lambeau Field. "He was thrilled. He kept saying what an honor that would be," Harlan said Tuesday.
White, who suffered from a respiratory ailment, died Dec. 26 at age 43.

He joined the Packers in 1993 in one of the biggest free agent signings in sports history and during a six-year stay helped restore respectability to a faded franchise. He helped lead the Packers to a Super Bowl triumph over New England following the 1996 season.

The Packers only four retired numbers: fullback Tony Canadeo (3), wide receiver Don Hutson (14), quarterback Bart Starr (15) and linebacker Ray Nitschke (66).

Come back and tell me this after he burns Darren Sharper for 5 TD's vs. the ViQueens.

Daunte Culpepper threw four touchdown passes -- giving him 11 TD passes and no interceptions against Green Bay this season -- and the Vikings picked off four Brett Favre passes.
Anyone remember that...if not...then you couldn't forget this...

Remind me; which SuperBowl was it that the Vikings won?

Reggie White was a great football player and an idiot off the field.

Even if he was in some capacity, I would never proclaim that he was, especially considering all the POSITIVE influences he brought to others off of the football field.
