    He did say "Fuck it retire his number". That says a lot coming from him. I will say that this forum for the most part are all showing respect for Roy after we heard the news. Some more than others, but I think everyone agrees that Roy was something special.

    When you divide his career pay by his 5 years played, his average annual pay might be the highest in sports history, for entire careers including initial years.

    Freakin Ducktales. That show was so classic. The cartoons these days are trash.

    I really hope that in a couple years, after Roy gets his degree, that he returns to the organization in some capacity.
