I must digress...to football


I told you I watch everything. I don't mind football but I was mildly distracted by their bright pink accessories yesterday. We see this all the time. Professional teams rock arm bands, special edition hats and even colorful bats to support certain causes.

My one gripe-why does the pink stuff usurp all other cancer awareness? Sure, pink looks great, it pops, it grabs your attention, but is it the leading killer of women, no.

Don't get me wrong, I fully support charity, cancer awareness and fundraisers and I love the color pink. I just don't understand why pink wins. September was ovarian and prostate cancer awareness month, where were the teal cleats, bats, hats, jackets and logos?

It was almost like I had infrared vision that detected all shades on pink. I couldn't stop looking at all the accessories, towels, cleats, paint on the field, fans, jackets, water bottles and the list goes on. Viewers can even go on and bid on signed pink paraphernalia

Every now and then you would see a player not sporting the pink kicks (Not sure why). And call me Joan Rivers but how horrible did the pink look with San Fran's uniforms. Bleh. Clash much?

That is my rant of the day. Feel free to comment if you have an answer as to why everything is always pink?
