the number 23

the Number 23 was originated by the greatest basketball player ever: Michael Jordan.

the number was also popularized by famed Cub Ryne Sandberg.

Now, the new 23 in Chicago is
Devin Hester. It is sincerely magic whenever he touches the ball. A recent stat by the Chicago Tribune showed he gets 1 TD for every 12 return attempts. The 2nd highest was Gale Sayers 1:15, and for good reference, Deion Sanders was 1:40.



The Bears don’t renew contracts unless someone is approaching the last year of their contract. They should bend that rule because I’m predicting Hester will be the most coveted free agent in the history of the NFL if he keeps at this pace

2006 Season (week is noted first)
(1) vs. GB: 84yd PR
(6) vs. ARZ: 83yd PR
(10) vs. NYG: 108yd missed FG return
(13) vs MINN: 45yd PR
(14) vs. STL: two KR for 94yds and 96yds

SuperBowl XLI: first ever opening kickoff return for 92yds

2007 Season
(2) vs. KC: 73yd PR
(4) vs. Det: 97yd KR
(6) vs. MINN: 89yd PR (also 81yd reception)
(12) vs. DEN: 75yd PR.... 88yd KR
(17) vs. NO: 64yd PR..... (also 55yd reception)
