Even though I think the ribbons are a marketing scheme (google) the cause is at least legit.

Exactly. Every product you can think of now comes in pink to support breast cancer, but the proceeds from many of these products don't even fund breast cancer research. Like these avatars, they just "raise awareness."

I hate to be the cynical one, but I don't think breast cancer needs any more help with raising awareness. You see it everywhere, and not just in October.

Share the spotlight, breast cancer! You're not the only disease out there, even if you are the most marketable.

There was a debate about this in one of my classes. Breast cancer separates itself in other diseases becasue it just happens to people for no apparent reason other than genes (like testicular cancer). Sure heart disease kills more but this disease is often a result of a habit or behavior like lung, sometimes liver, mouth and skin etc. While I do agree the situation has been taken advantage of, it's really not hurting me any or costing me anything to change my avatar to support something that harms something I love so much...women that is. :)

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
