We were told no pink by the NCHSAA.

I bet if the pink stuff had a big script looking H on it the tune would change!

We didn't ask. We've been wearing pink whistles and a pink wristband since the beginning of October.

We didn't ask either. We were told in July.

Sounds like NC has bigger control freaks than our state office, which is hard to imagine.

One of the crew members had his wife make pink bean bags for our crew. We have had more comments from coaches and parents than you can imagine. Just a side note my daughters volleyball team is all wearing yellow live strong bands around their shoes during matches. The assistant coaches' husband has testicular cancer. The girls are showing their support as well as cooking meals for the family to help them out as well. I agree the pink is a symbol but it should be backed up by time or money to help the cause as well.

Some really sound advice I've found applies to many things beyond football, "It is often better to beg forgiveness than seek advice."

I've been wearing a pink whistle, lanyard and shoelaces for the month.

Our association has gotten every official a pink flag to use as well.

We've used them every game.

I am proud to wear pink, as there are quite a few wives in our association that are breast cancer survivors.

Evidently not.

High school refs may be penalized for pink whistles
