Wait, 50% goes to the retailer? I never would have thought that. That's one hell of a markup.

Realize too that most of the sales come from the NFL website, so the NFL is the retailer.

And I believe same goes for all those Breast Cancer walk/runs/etc. Totally ticks me off with all the "pink" stuff, it's as if breast cancer is a fashion statement / trendy.

And fine, the NFL wives / cheerleaders want to support breast cancer awareness. Good. But my guess is more men watch the NFL. So why not promote prostate cancer awareness, screening, prevention???

Ok, off my soapbox.

I don't think I want to know what color prostate cancer awareness would be.
