Fergie, Maddux To Have #31 Retired By Cubs
#29
<!--quoteo(post=35239:date=May 3 2009, 06:32 PM:name=rok)-->QUOTE (rok @ May 3 2009, 06:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->I don't think we need to retire any more numbers for a long time. Unless we develop a HOFer in the near future, there's no need to. I love both Grace and Dawson, but having your number retired is forever. I don't think they have earned it. Maddux probably didn't because his best years were in Atlanta, but I can at least live with it because he shared Fergie's number. Otherwise, I don't see the point.

But you can't start retiring the number of every All Star who's played for your team. It would lessen the honor.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I agree.
