Actually, this isn't a simple oversight -- that's really the jersey Alstott wore for his first two NFL games with the Bucs. Chew on that if you don't remember the days when the Buccaneers organization was an absolute jerkwater operation.
The thing that strikes me as strange about this whole episode is... Mike Alstott? I mean, really? Mike Alstott? That's whose jersey the Bucs are retiring? Why not retire Steve Spurrier's jersey too, while they're at it.
It was, like, "Mike Alstott Day" or something -- they're not retiring his jersey. That's incredibly uncommon in the NFL, since you have 99 numbers to distribute among 53 players.
