Any amount of money that is donated and received that may lead to a cure is fine by me. Breast cancer is a leading killer of women in the U.S. and any cures for it may lead to breakthrough in other forms of cancer. If all I have to do is put up with a little pink or even a lot of pink in order to have been able to prevent my Mom from getting breast cancer many years ago, I would sign up for that all day. Pink isn't all that bad anyway, trust me.



Hope that helps,
FDC

Cris: My wife lost her mother to BC and I have two women that work for me that have it. It's terrible. My point is, less fucking money spent on pink shit, and more money for research. Wearing pink wristbands doesn't help anyone. JMO.

Totally understand your point, but think about this, without the overstated pink wristbands we wouldn't be having this conversation. Without all the pink and different events and such, the funding for research of breast cancer may be on a level parallel to Lou Gehrig's Disease or something like that. You and I have been around long enough to get sick of all the pink stuff but there is a new generation of young people and visitors tuning in every week and season so I understand it. Just sayin

Exactly, awareness matters.

I Think the pink is great.

Think about this... Remember when there were these things everywhere, people wore them to work, and all the celebrities wore them?

Multi-millions were raised for research and HIV/AIDS related projects starting back in the early 90s. Remember all the celebrities dropping like flies? How much do u hear about it now?? Do u know why you don't hear about it? BC the mortality rates have dropped over 75%. In 2009 there were less than 10,000 AIDS related deaths in the USA (over 40,000 women died of breast cancer the same year). There have actually been confirmed cases of people having +HIV tests and later having -HIV tests after trestment.

How great would it be if we could get the breast cancer mortality down like this? If pink wristbands and accessories on the football field help, I'm for it! :0074
