How come no names on jerseys?

Like I want to remember that many names & #S or spend that much time looking at a program

Memorizing names and looking at programs is optional at all sporting events. Its not that serious. But I'm still amazed that having a name on back of a jersey means a player is not a team first guy, but many colleges and all pro teams do it??? When guys are inducted to the Hall of Fame or retire, they exhaust a box of tissue thanking coaches and teammates.

I don't think having a name on the back means or doesn't mean your a team player . . . I just see the "no name" as a gesture.  Once you're pro, you deserve the name on the jersey.  But that's just me.
