The family of Nick Adenhart is happy that his No. 34 is being worn by Noah Syndergaard. No Angels player has worn it since Adenhart was killed in 2009. “I hope he wins the Cy Young wearing No. 34.” Story w/ details on why he decided to use the number: https://theathletic.com/3021460/2021/12/17/there-could-be-no-one-better-nick-adenharts-family-happy-his-no-34-angels-jersey-will-be-worn-by-noah-syndergaard/

What ever happened to Nick's younger brother?  I think his name is Henry, but has a different last name.

While the family may be happy, I am not.

Certain things should stay how they are. The team unofficially didn't wear his number again, for over 10 seasons. It would have been one thing if someone like Weaver changed his number to 34, to honor Nick, but for a new Angel to come in wearing that number, because he didn't want to change it, is a bit much for me.

And I'm sure I'm not alone, but yeah, I thought he'd change his number. Makes me like Thor a little less.

I can see how some may not like the look of it but for myself it doesn't make a difference. 

Now if some jackass takes Hall of Famer Vlad Guerrero's number, then there will be hell to pay.

Why do you care, especially if the family doesn't?  I've personally always thought the issue of who could/couldn't wear a number was kind of silly, anyway.  But in this case, if the dead guy's family is cool with it, who cares? 

[Blarg]

Obviously he does. Why do you care if he does? Are you stewarding his fandom?

He's free to feel however he wants to feel.  I'm just curious why it matters.

Why do you care that he cares that he cares?

Currently an inmate at the Ironwood State Prison in Blythe, Gallo will be eligible for his first parole hearing in 2028.Apr 8, 2019

I got a call from a headhunter several years ago who wanted to know if I was interested in taking over the medical department at Ironwood.

I remember talking to a nursing director from CDCR. He told me that if the temperature went above 90 degrees, they didn't let inmates out on the yard. I told him that if we took the same stance, our population would be locked down nine months out of the year.
