I do see the point, but exactly when do you reissue it? Next season? 5 years? There is a PR gamble that I frankly don't think is worth taking. Look at this site. How many people DON'T have ST tributes attached to them? I have to reiterate my point that from shirts to towels to helmet decals, 21 became the way everybody conveyed the remembrance.

BTW, where is the guy that said 7 & 9 were re-issued, I dying to know this!
