You know the old saying that “it never hurts to ask”?  Well, it’s a saying for a reason: It’s true. And as a result 11 year Dante Cano of New Jersey is asking the NFL to use pink penalty flags (instead of yellow) to celebrate breast cancer awareness, the league is going to use them for the Jets vs. Dolphins game this weekend! (see the letter he wrote above) The NFL supports breast cancer awareness in nOctober, by allowing players to wear pink shoes, gloves & wear pink hats on the sideline,… Bonus: Dante gets to go to the game Sunday and present the flags to the officials before the game…”Dante had a great idea, and I am looking forward to meeting with him on Sunday to put it into action,” Goodell said in a statement released by the league. “Sometimes the simplest ideas can be the best. I applaud Dante for sending in his recommendation.”  Way to go Dante!   Connect with me on Face Book!
