Don't Throw in the Towel

Not much to talk about uniform-wise from yesterday's game against the Ravens; one good-looking, traditional team versus a black-for-black's-sake mess. But there was one small detail that intrigues me.

During this regrettable Pinktober event, players have been wearing pink cleats, pink sweatbands, pink gloves, and... pink towels.

It was these towels that caused the NFL to retire their pink penalty flags, since they were causing confusion every time one landed on the field.

So if most players were like Jarrett Boykin above, check out our #12:

Good to see that somebody has some sense.
