I would like to go on record as being fully aware of the existence of Breast Cancer. The pink stuff is played out.

This is FreeRepublic.com. We are all grown ups, correct? It should not be construed in any manner that I somehow support cancer happening. It simply means that the pink apparel has performed its intended purpose. Let's move on.

On Friday I watched a Varsity game (also in Oregon).

The HS had dedicated an entire squad of cheerleaders to dressing down with pink ribbons an some unique pink-trimmed uniforms.

The pink stuff is played out.

I couldn't agree more. I'm tired of being badgered at the checkout for 'rounding-up' my purchase to the next dollar to donate.

Also: Sorry, ladies. I'm male and I don't appreciate all the uneven attention to gender-specific disease research (yes, I know men get breast cancer, too...but you can't make the same claim to fame about the prostate).

This 'pink' thing seems all too convenient for special interests.

I've got an idea...how about converting 'pink' to ALL cancer research? How 'bout that?

As an aside, anyone throw down $$ on when the Ducks debut with Rainbow helmets?

“The pink stuff is played out.”

A town north of me has pink garbage containers with ribbons printed on the side.
