It's not a bad idea. It's a way to identify who is giving their best effort. Im sure the loafers will get tired of wearing pink eventually. If Lou would of had that, most of the team would of been wearing pink.

This is such oversensitive garbage. I get more and more depressed every day that people have become such whiny, brattish crybabies. People CHOOSE to get offended by everything they see.

For future notice, the color pink is forever more off limits.

Did you read the article? I like the pink jerseys, but we have to ditch them for no good reason.

Alls not lost tho, we can switch to burnt orange. (until someone else gets offended)

I'm surprised you're not excited about the idea of switching to burnt orange. That's far more amusing than giving a player a pink jersey.

That is pretty ridiculous but then again alot of people are just waiting to be offended so they can jump on their soap box and whine. Burnt orange would be better I am sure but since pink belongs them...what organization owns the color burnt orange!? They better check before they wind up in their doghouse! They should have just realized that in no way, shape, or form was the coaches trying to take anything breast cancer survivors or their organization.

You're right, burn orange is even funnier. But that doesn't make me any less mad about the reason why pink is not being used.

Yeah, there's no doubt there are just a lot of stupid and overly sensitive people in the world. I find life is far more enjoyable if you just mercilessly mock those people instead of getting mad at them though, hehe.

Yeah, I think it's ridiculous. I don't blame Nutt for nixing it, but whatta bunch of bitches. That's what it was right there. Just a ..... getting pissed off. I loved the pink jersey deal. It was hilarious and no self-respecting man would ever voluntarily wear pink. And for damn sure no self-respecting defensive football player would want to wear a pink jersey at practice. But oh well.........

burnt orange for texas or purple/gold for lsu would be a nice pick, purple is a pretty wussy color

Yeah, nowdays it seems like everything offends someone. I think we should start a group and say that whiney people that complain about everything offending them offends us. I wonder how they would feel about that. Once again a good idea wasnt used because someone said it offended them. For God's sake its a pink shirt.

Great post cocky, my thoughts exactly. If you wanna start the group, I'll be the first member :).

Apparently we won't be using anymore colored jerseys for loafers at all. Of any color. Bah.

Oh well, it was a good idea while it lasted. Maybe they'll rethink it in the future....or maybe we at USC can get Spurrier to copy the idea and give the guys Clemson replicas, hehe.

I know Spurrier would have the cahones to do it, no matter who it offended. Doesn't he usually try to run fun practices tho? Doesn't really fit. :D

I read in the paper today where local cancer charities are recieving alot of angry phone calls from Razorback fans. I agree with the angry phone calls but I think it would be ashame if people stopped donating to these charities over this. Although it would teach them to stay out of things that don't concern them. Why would a cancer patient be offended if some guy he or she will never see is wearing a pink jersey on a practice field? :confused:
