I know the cause. But I think this is going to far. A nice pink ribbon on a helmet or a shirtsleeve does the same thing , triggers the thought for the cause . Maybe some kid will next suggest pink lights on police cars. Enough is enough .

Oh brother! Honestly, I am getting sick of this crap. I actually tracked the “breast cancer awareness” exposure and found that slightly over half of the days in 2010 there was some kind of pink promotion being pushed.

I have empathy for individuals that suffer breast cancer, or any serious illness. However, I am sick of being pounded over the head ALL THE DANG TIME!

How about pink bases? Being a woman I understand this cancer. But to shove it in the face of guys for a whole month is stupid. Where’s the prostrate cancer awareness month? All these organisations want a month awareness for this and that. We have black history awareness month and Hispanic month and Asian month. We only give two days a year to our servicemen and women, Nov. 11 and May 30th. Well okay, the government made it a weekend. For car sales and stuff. I will come up with a ribbon that I will attach to the pink ribbon as Prostrate Cancer Awareness Month. Need A cool color.

"Yoo-hoo! Oh, Mr. Tight End, and I do mean tight! I seem to have dropped my pink hankie! Perhaps you should pick it up and bring it to me, and we can have a chat over what punishment I should give you for your naughty illegal use of hands. I could give you 15 yards, or a good spanking! Up to you, big boy!"
