is it normal to unretire a number? I usually respect where Peyton is coming from but I'm not sure about this.

Peyton talked to Tripucka and got his blessing. I don't see a problem with it.

I don't like it. When they retire your number they are telling you you are great and have done great things for the team. it isn't something you ask for it is something they bestow. If they gave yo a form I'm sure most decent people would say, "Nah keep it in play." What kind of egoist would say anything different? but they retire it because they love you. When the organization blesses unretiring your number how are you supposed to respond?

Pretty lame IMO.

never heard of that guy so he probably doesn't deserve to hold onto his precious number.

the classy thing would have been peyton taking another number.

his 18 will get retired in Indy.

do you think he will ever want to unretire it for someone....

It's a disgrace to Denver to do this. I thought I was incapable of hating them more, but this is a classless move. Peyron might have earned big accolades with the number with the Colts but he hasn't earned the right to erase the honor to another player.

I think the Colts should trade for Teblow and give HIM #18.

I agree. Broncos with Elway at the wheel is soulless.
