Congrats to Sonny Jurgensen and his family. Always great to see franchise legends honored. Well deserved.

No offense to Sean at all, but Sonny and some others deserved this honor before him.

I don't want to see any porta pottie shots from this, or Dan showing up looking haggard in a hoodie.

Well, to be honest Sean didn't deserve to have his jersey retired at all. Not his fault but he just didn't accomplish enough.

Agree. He was a good player but Sonny deserved this a long long time ago.

Well that's just it, it wasn't his fault he was killed, had he lived he very likely would have had a HOF worthy career.

I don't have a problem with his number being retired, it just didn't need to happen ahead of those more deserving like Sonny.

Sums it up for me - and ST is my all-time favorite Redskin.

Sonny should open the floodgates - Monk, Green off the top of my head deserve it too.

I don't think you've got much to worry about. First, the "brain trust" will probably have learned enough to lock the porta-potties that will be lining Sonny Lane prior to the ceremony to keep the odor down. Unfortunately, it would cost too much to move them, plus they'll be needed for the comfort of the fans afterwards.

Secondly, Snyder probably won't be there at all. He'll probably be on his yacht outside of U.S. territorial waters hiding from federal authorities.

Snyder will be attending in spirit from his IMAX theater on his yacht.

He'll be rocking his best tv interview wear for the occasion.
