There have been stories about Hill, this past week even.Keeping it open is inspiring indeed.
It's kind of petty, but it bothers me how much media attention went to Sean Taylor, yet there's been a "91" on the back of the Pats helmets all year and nary a tale of the loss of their friend and teamate.
I've been watching a lot of NFL network and haven't seen a thing. I think I saw one story on ESPN a couple of weeks ago and that was it. If the freaking Redskins were in the SB, you wouldn't be able to turn a TV on without seeing his face...
Regardless, it would still be inspiring to leave it open...

Still only 52 names on the roster.
Too late to bring in any outsider ... even such an "insider" as Chad Brown.
So who is going to be honored
by promotion from the practice squad?
My money is still on Bam
... with Santonio the second choice.
I have said that for a few days...even before that Globe article...but I agree..it would be fitting...and GREAT! And that is true..they did do that as a team...full circle..let's see IF they have those same thoughts and do it!! In a few hours...I think they will have to announce any roster changes...so??? We will all know..great point in mentioning that!!They started this "season of unity" by attending Hill's wake as a group, where his mother told the team that HILL FORSAW A SUPERBOWL VICTORY before his death. They will end it by adding his name posthumously to the roster and I bet the the ring (presuming there is one) will be giving to Sherry Hill, his mother.
I cannot imagine a more touching gestures or what kind of motivation this will prove to be for the team.
I think it would be kind of fitting if they do.
If anyone's into meaningless tidbits of information... His number was 91... Reverse it and you get 19
There isn't really a need to fill the 53rd spot. It's not like they'd suit up for the game.
Why would the team deprive a hard-working multiyear practice squad guy of that reward?
so that a widow could get the money
I think you might THINK it means nothing...ask Billy Yates..I believe who was added a few years ago for a Super Bowl.....I DO think they will do something with the spot...whether to add a PSquader OR as I think all think..for the late Marquise Hill...There isn't really a need to fill the 53rd spot. It's not like they'd suit up for the game.
