I found this article on Yahoo, and it makes me sooo mad!
Washington referees may face ban for charity pink whistles - Prep Rally - High School - Yahoo! Sports
The HS Football Refs donned pink whistles For a week's gamea to promote Breast Cancer Awareness. They also planned to donate their game pay checks from that week to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Well, the Chair of the Washington Officals Association says he will disipline them for USING THE PINK WHISTLES because it supposedly violates the rules!!! They could be suspended TWO playoff games and forfiture of pay for those games as well.
As my mother is a 7 year suvivor and I have lost two people I care about to Breast Cancer this article makes sooo mad. I am passionately commited to raising awarness. It makes me madder when I think about the youngest age I've heard of Breast Cancer being diagnosed is 10(note:breast cancer that young is extremely rare)!!! 1 in 4 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. I think what these Refs, were trying to do is great, but all it takes is one person to be totally inflexible.
I'm asking everyone that knows a Breast Cancer Fighter, Suvivor, lost someone to Breast Cancer , if you care about the women in you life or you care about raising awareness; Email this guy and let him know what you think of his stupidity!

Okay guys....GO GET EM!!!
