Give Me A Fucking Break - Arkansas Practice Jersey
 

Why, of all the traditions and routines that involve the color pink, is this one that siginificant that there was an uproar. I'm surprised Peta's not involved for them offending Pink Elephants....

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Arkansas coach Houston Nutt said that players caught loafing will no longer wear pink jerseys during practices in an effort to avoid offending breast cancer survivors.

Nutt received negative reaction from people when they saw the players in the pink jerseys. Breast cancer survivors and their supporters often wear pink ribbons, and the nationwide Race for the Cure, which raises funds for breast cancer research, uses the color pink as well.

"That's the last thing I want to do, is to offend a cancer victim, someone who I know how strong and brave they are," Nutt said. "That was the last thing on our mind, to discredit somebody who has shown a lot of toughness. I've had members of my family who had cancer."

Nutt said the coaches are considering another color, possibly burnt orange, the color of Arkansas rival Texas.

Burnt orange is the color most frequently worn by the Brady Bunch.

Look out Coach because Florence Henderson is going to kick your ass!

Reminds me of when I was intermediate school. If you forgot your gym clothes you had to wear this grungy orange uniform. The girls was purple. Everyone would refer to you as either an orange or a grape respectively.
