Going too Far?
NFL will use pink penalty flags in Miami Dolphins vs. New York Jets game - NFL News | FOX Sports on MSN
Sometimes I find all the pink stuff the players, coaches, and officials are wearing just a bit distracting......but this is taking it to an entire new level. Ok with it? Don't care? Stop it already!? Maybe I should start a poll.......

Way to far. The pink socks...ok,...pink gloves...maybe but the shoes, towels, wrist bands...its all just a little bit excessive. I think it's a nobel cause but there has got to be a point where everyone says enough is enough.

The money spent on the pink stuff should go straight to cancer research or straight to people's medical bills. We're well aware of breast cancer, in fact, I don't think we can be any more aware. There's no longer a need to raise awareness.

I think it is going too far, but it is what it is. And it really is not going to make much of a difference. I think honestly a week or two should be enough, but all weeks in the NFL IMO is a little much. But this is not going to change. I just hope all the things Pink raise a lot of money.
Peace

I think those who "overindulge" on Saturday night are going to have a big surprise.
I'd be more impressed if all NFL employees (coaches, players, officials, league execs, etc) gave 1% of their salaries to cancer research & prevention.

I am not a fan at all. We have had pink every game in October and even last game in sept. It looks bad with orange I know that.

To me, it's just another fashion fad. I can't get too excited about it either way.

The answer is nothing. A couple of crews even said, you know we are supposed to have a letter from OHSAA for pink. I said, I know. Unless the officials make everyone take it off if unexempt there will be no change, I don't think the officials should have to but like other rules, if they don't enforce, no one will.

The only thing that is enforcable is the towels as by rule they must be white. There is no rule against pink undershirts, pink wristbands, or pink shoes.
NCHSAA is allowing them if the team contacts the state office and the state e-mails them back an exemption. Most of us think that's a bunch of bureaucratic b.s. and would have been better handled by just stating for the month of October, pink towels are approved.
