So what's up with all the pink stuff?

It just doesn't look right to me ... I know $$$ is $$$ ... but Pink? For a great team pink should be banned ... greatness is never pink.

Lets you identify the bandwagon fans more easily, it's like a Scarlet Letter of sorts.

As long as Giselle doesn't get ahold of one of those travesties I don't really care.

He'd look better in it than some of the "ladies" I've seen at Gillette.

Reaching out to Sudbury, Wellesley Hills, Hingham, Weston, Martha's Vineyard, and Manchester for the Biff and Buffy crowd.

Even the Olympics have gone pink...

Whatever it takes to get women more involved in football. Most of the football parties I go to are something like 50% women now if not more. The more it becomes OK for women to like football the less men will have to deal with getting *****ed at for watching it.

Okay, I wear tons of pink Pats stuff and I am far from a band wagon fan. I also wear a lot of regular Pats stuff. Fact is, the pink stuff is made for women. It fits better than the mens stuff. I guess I understand the whole pink hat thing, but please don't paint with such a broad brush. I probably have more Pats clothing than a lot of men, I just happen to love pink. I love being a girl, doesn't make me less of a fan.

I'm sitting here in my signed Bruschi jersey and flying Elvis earrings ready to head off to Patriots day at work. But I own some of the pink stuff - mostly gifts.
Bottom line, I think it's a way for the NFL to sell more stuff. When I first became a fan there wasn't gear for women. Hell, when you went to the NFL site in the early days online there was a section for women - and it had recipes
I don't think any more women are bandwagoners than men. And while I'm not a huge fan of pink for Pats gear, I'm with Tommysgirl about the fact that the stuff fits better.

Sometimes the pink does stink. If it smells like cologne, leave it alone...

I am curious about the pink socks.

Whats wrong with pink? Eli wears it.
