eli Manning is Wearing No Pink (Sunday Night Football Vanity)
Sunday Night Football | 10/11/2015 | Me

Posted on 10/11/2015 6:59:24 PM PDT by ponygirl

I've become so used to seeing NFL teams looking like they vomited Pepto Bismol all over the field that I was somewhat surprised to see so little Breast Cancer pinkness on Sunday Night Football. Then I realized that, aside from the stickers on helmet and badges on his jersey, NY Giants QB is wearing NO additional pink merchandise. I thought the players were required to wear something (in previous years it was ONE item minimum) and this year it seems like the requirement has been three or more items. Can someone explain how Manning gets away without wearing pink wristbands, towel, socks, shoes, elbow wraps, mouth guard, face mask clips, etc. etc. etc.??

I mean, I know Eli thinks he's pretty special, but what gives...?

And what is up with your Seahawks? Are you guys saving up all the Beast Mode to unload on my Cardinals?

The only commercial that makes me watch all of it every time
is where the guy gives his dog a 14+ year birthday party and fills out the dog’s bucket list.

But then, I remembered when my daughter played sports and recalled these.

So sorry for your loss. It must be hard to see it be used for publicity in such a shallow way.

I refuse to buy any merchandise with a pink ribbon because the Susan G. Komen foundation donates part of what they receive to Planned Parenthood. There were many stories and the Susan G. Komen Foundation finally admitted they gave to PP. Even if they’ve stopped it’s so reprehensible that they will never receive a penny from me.

Funding infanticide does not equal cancer research.

Two things:

Guys should not wear pink.

Everyone is now aware of breast cancer, time to get people aware about other cancers.

I am so sorry about the loss of your wife, and only 28. Geez, it is insidious when cancer strikes such a young person. For me, the “cure” was way more terrifying than the disease. I am 68, and it’s been six years without a problem. God bless you, too.

Maybe he isn’t a fan of breasts?

Susan B. Komen stopped giving to Planned Parenthood a couple years ago, when PP was under an investigation. This was no bias against PP, but just a general policy of Komen. PP came down so hard on Komen, presumably by getting Komen fans to withdraw their support, that Komen reversed its policy.

policy = decision, in this case.

Maybe he finally got smart?

This whole Komen racket needs to dive into the trash can.

It diverts money to far left orgs that could be put to much better use.

It’ll do no good for anybody’s breast cancer, that is for sure.

They seem to have retired that, but oh did it make me weep. Made me think of our beloved 14 year old chow we lost in 2013 in November. Still haven’t gotten over it completely.

“Someone please explain!”

Who cares??!! This chickification of the NFL is ridiculous and watching all that pink on the field is distracting and typical retarded little girl nonsense.

Are you aware that the FDA has banned all active forms of Iodine from sale?

It is obviously done to prevent curing disease.

Yeah, it’s a shame they can’t live longer.
I just saw that commercial again yesterday.

The ban is not by the FDA, but by DEA. There is a limit on how much iodine can be sold in a single transaction. Supposedly this ban is because iodine has been used in some MET Lab operations.

The ban allows small amounts of Lugol's iodine or SSKI (Saturated Solution of Potassium Iodide).

There is no limiting the power of these illegitimate, outside the Constitution agencies. Time for many of them to be demised.

Think EPA, FDA, DEA, OSHA, IRA, Dept of Ed, Dept of Ag, Dept of Energy...etc
