Many players today wore #42 in honor of Jackie Robinson. Don't know if this has been reported yet.

I'm curious if any black players didn't wear the number.

The first thread has some answers you seek.

I don't see race; people tell me I'm white and I believe them, because I belong to an all-white country club.

I almost missed this entirely thanks to poker and golf. Did any white players wear JR's number?

I had no idea. I wish ESPN had reminded me about this sometime this week.
