Message: [QUOTE="SU2NASA, post: 778087, member: 800"] Breast cancer accounts for ~268,000 of over 1,900,000 cancer deaths in the United States per year. I appreciate the NFL, MLB, and college football is working to raise awareness and charitable donations for an awful disease with no cure that I hope to God none of the women in my life ever get, but what about the many other forms of cancer that kill hundreds of thousands of Americans each year? I agree, doesn't it seem like much of this is about commercializing the game to attract women? I know MLB refused light blue bats this year for prostate cancer awareness, and abandoned that campaign a few years ago. I think they've found this to be more lucrative. I hope this doesn't come across as insensitive since breast cancer is a terrible disease that must be fought, but hasn't this reached a saturation point with four weeks of NFL and college focusing on pink everything?
