Day 287: Pink, pink, pink

Every time I turn the television on these days to watch a football game, all I see is all kinds of pink. Pink shoes. Pink sweatbands. Pink goalposts. Pink towels. Pink hats. Pink, pink, pink.

I wonder if people who don't like sports know about all the good that sports do. I wonder if they understand the ungodly numbers of people that sports touches. The attention that sports demands. The influence it can have to the positive.

All the eyeballs now seeing all that pink are becoming aware that cancer is a big fricking problem. They're asking each other, "Why are they all wearing pink?" And they're learning. Remembering. And maybe they'll take action. They realize that sports does and can make an impact.
