Many players, and coaches, are much better with #s than names. It's easier in terms of watching film.

Every football coach I ever had and the overwhelming majority of teammates (essentially anyone that wasn't friends with the person they were talking to) referred to the players by number.
And it wasn't even 'Eighty-Eight'
It was "Eight Eight".
This is very much nothing.
