Which New York numbers really deserve to be retired?

Debates! We love debates! In honor of Derek Jeter’s No. 2 being retired next week, here is a look at the retired numbers for our baseball, football and basketball teams, and one man’s look at who belongs, who doesn’t and who’s missing.

Feedback! We love feedback! Let’s hear your take also.

No-brainers: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 15, 16, 23, 32, 37, 42, 44, 51
