It's not like he's going to remember then is it? Seriously though it's disrespectful. May as well unretire all of their jerseys. Alzheimer's is terrible illness. Some days they remember who you are, most they have no clue. They're stuck reliving memories from 40-50 years ago. It's pretty sad to see someone you know slip away like that.
I heard Peyton on ESPN radio this morning saying something along the lines of "this goes against what I believe, I have a great respect for the history of the game" ... Then why did you do it dumb@$$? Peyton tries to play the media, and somehow everyone just eats it up. People on the radio were like "Well its okay bc he is PM, and he understands how important it is" I bet you $1000 if the Colts retired PM's jersey, and someone else tried to wear it, he would throw a fit. But I wouldn't expect any less from him. He is all about having this "classy" image, but he has always been a spoiled POS
