As a die-hard fan, I know it wasn't retired. BYU does not retire jerseys. Ainge's number 22 was honored and he was given a replica of his jersey.

If it truly were retired, no other player would be able to wear the number, and that is not the case.

If it was so anti-climactic, I guess that all that Ainge said to the crowd was a lie. Along with all of the newspaper articles and television appearances where he said that this was an incredible honor.

I can't believe I came on here to deal with such puerile nonsense. Read this:

"Ainge's jersey, number 22, was retired and now hangs from the rafters in Provo."

Like I said, my friend, the evening was anti-climactic for a completely different reason. The ceremony itself was flattering and fun. I'm talking about after that - the real world.

Grow up, so we can have an intelligent conversation about Iraq...

Personally, I don't know - or even give a damn - whether it's really Danny Ainge or not. What I do know is that this same clown posted the same two articles last night under the handle "Face Man". FWIW.
