Breast cancer awareness?
Is this like when MLB used pink bats for a week?

If it was left up to me they wouldnt be allowed to wear that crap over their shoes. I think that it would take away from the grip of their cleats. Unless the needed something for support for their ankles, Im against something like that, then and only then would I allow them to do something and at the most it would be tape.

If it doesn't come out of the budget then I don't think I have a problem with it, but I don't really understand it. I hate it when kids wear socks over their shoes to give the spat effect, looks so cheap.

all comes back to the "circle of good" ...
if you LOOK good, you FEEL good -
if you FEEL good, you PLAY good -
if you PLAY good, you WIN good -
if you WIN good, you LOOK good -

I know what you're saying Huey, but its never worked like that for me. A kid will come to me with some new gadget or color to wear - he must already be a starter - and ask if they can wear it for the game. I usually tell them "yes" but, if they don't perform well above their average level (stats, intensity, execution, etc.) then the item comes off and we NEVER speak of it or anything else out of our normal uniform ever again! I've had ONE guy over the years actually play better so he got to keep his red socks.

We wore pink bands around our thighs in our last game of the season, around the end of October. If I am not mistaken, it was breast Cancer Awareness Week/Month. We did it to honor the wife of the opposing teams HC who was, and still is in a battle with breast Cancer.
I agree with Wildcat - I think the team in this picture might be doing something similar along the same lines that we did. Some type of Breast Cancer/Cancer awareness or tribute.
Power I Guy - How old is the picture?? If it is from October, then I think we have a good explanation. If not, I'm lost and I have no clue.

I think this is a team by team thing. I know our team would crucify someone wearing that. But i've played for teams that love it. I don't really care..but if 1 kid does it ..they all must. If they don't all agree to do it...nobody does it. I don't like 1 or 2 players showing up for a game trying to stand out. Their play should, not their shoes.

It all boils down to Willie Joe Namath and his white shoes...everyone said this and that, when he won the Super Bowl against the Baltimore Colts everyone shut up
The Hammer Fred Williams wore them with KC, but as Coach Dub put it, he was not dope...
Just a bit of useless triva.
I say this, you bring game I don´t care if you wear a dress...you can´t make the mix then your the fool!
