Pink at Lambeau

Yesterday saw the first Packers home game in October, which means our first opportunity to see how the league's pinkwashing scam would be promoted at Lambeau Field.

The answer: not as bad as I feared.

We had the now-standard assortment of pink towels, gloves, wristbands and even cleats:

Pink accessories aside, is there any color combination that looks so good under a bright autumnal sun?

Never mind. Rhetorical question.

While we're at it, here's a closer look at the back of Aaron's helmet.

We have, from left to right, the two-events-in-one pink and gold NFL ribbon, the player identifier, the green "radio equipped helmet" dot and a big honkin' American flag. Too much.

On the field itself, the small black-and-gold NFL logo on the 25-yard line was embellished with a pink ribbon.

I'll be glad when this scheme finally gets stale and the NFL drops it. If they haven't already gone past the point of no return.
