Sitting here watching the Bengals/Browns game. Two orange teams. With players/coaches wearing pink bills and wristbands. I keep thinking my TV's going bad.

Good cause, but I think they're over-doing it.
Everything is pink...pink hats, pink goal line post covers, Vernons wearing pink gloves, pink arm bands, pink shoes, pink undershirts.

I hate the pink on the uniforms, it just looks so wrong on every team's uniform except for the Raiders, but it's a great cause. So ... OK.

not a week, it's all month.
would be a great if it were about prevention. sadly, it's only in-your-face marketing to sell mammograms. veiled product placement under the guise of a cause.
flame on...

Well, I have no idea what it is like in your country. But if you think prevention is the most important thing, do a little research. With early detection and chemo and/or radiotherapy, this is a defeatable cancer. But early detection is vital.
And if those guys are prepared to wear pink shoes and so forth, why moan?
