Pink towels are not a problem, or violation. During October most towels that may apprear white likely have some tint of pink, at least in the perspective of the wise observer.

So if 2 players are wearing pink towels and 3 players are wearing blue towels, you ignore the difference? If so, what other rules do you set aside?

I'm glad Texas doesn't make us be the towel police.

IA, I am guessing you accidentally left off the ;);) off your post cause you can't be serious.

It's not a question of being "Towel Police". NFHS rules are designed for Interscholastic (teenage) participants, and rather than try and outguess and stay ahead of the imagination of the American teenager, as to what might squeeze in under what may be "acceptable", NFHS Rule makers elected to "Keep it Simple", which also applies to other "uniform adornments".

Those in charge of fashion etiquite regarding uniforms are actually team coaches and administrators, who should be well aware of rules and limitations so as to simply, and totally, avoid unnecessary breachesand confrontations.

I don't really care what the question is. Texas doesn't make us do it, in fact, they don't make us follow any NFHS rules.

Agreed. Got tired of being the only one chasing it.

Tom, I'm pretty sure IAUMP is pointing out that ajmc chastises HLinNC in one post and then suggests to ignore a violation of the pink towel October tradition in another.

I thought to do the same thing but then realized I couldn't care any less what he thinks about the subject.
