Re: Redskins and Breast Cancer Spam
GUYS GUYS GUYS... lets not make a big deal out of a small bit of miscommunication that can turn personal real quick. CRT3, I think you feel like by focusing on one kind of cancer people make light of all of the other kinds of deadly diseases that are out there. Maybe it does get more attention than other kinds of cancer. However instead of saying breast cancer gets too much attention, can we agree that other cancers just don't get enough? Lets not not support efforts put forth by one ajenda because we feel like there are too many other problems out there. I agree with the breast cancer efforts, but I DEFINATELY agree that there should be just as much attention given to non-hotchkins lymphoma (spelling), colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, hotchkins disease, melanoma..... etc.
We're all skins fans here, and for the most part (sorry bigskinbauer ) we're all adults. Lets not get so petty as to argue about who's cancer is the worst.??? I do know your situation CRT3 and I feel for you soo much. You are going through what my worst fear is in life and I cannot fathom that. I don't even know your real name, but I do remember you in my prayers. I don't think SBF meant to make light of the situation, and I objectively understand where your frustrations stem from. SBF, with all the man is going through, I dont see where HIS efforts should even be called into question. Looking into his beautiful children's eyes and just living and making a life out of a situation that would ruin me... There should be enought charitable people in this worls so that the people who's lives are affected directly by this type of situation shouldnt be the people who are having to put forth the effort. They should be the ones being comforted. |

Re: Redskins and Breast Cancer Spam
Did any of you actually read my post, the 2nd one on here. It was not looking for a battle just stating my opinion and respectfully disagreeing. I just wish that all cancers across the board would be reconized as one. Just stating my opinion.
Sammy as far as your question which in all honesty is ridiculous, I will tell you what I have done. 1. Actively sought thru meetings and conferences the rebuilding of Lombardi Comprehesive Cancer Center. November 2nd a big anouncment will be made on this. I have spent 2 year pursuing this as to have a better facilty for all cancer patients. I even brought the director of the center to his very first football game, to show him what the name Lombardi and football means to the community. 2. I have just completed a program to set up an education program via The Wellness Community with one of the Worlds Largest grocery store chains. They will have a town hall style meeting to educate people on how to communicate fears and questions on people with cancer. Its a bit more involved then this statement but you should catch my drift. This will be cohosted by a doctor or a educator and a celebrity. This program has notbeen fully finsihed yet but should be in action around April of 2006. 3. Personally had myself and my kids thank Lance Armstrong and the riders of Team Hope for their efforts on spreading awarness on Clinical trial. We met them 2 Strudays ago at 7:30 AM in their hotel in Rockville. They were all very gracious and were very appreciative of the support as I was of their actions towards my children. Now I could go on and on about this as I am a very active person in this particular issue. So to question my integrety is quite wrong on this. The Redskins should support all types of cancer and not just the pink one. That is my view and untill you can come up with a logical point of view that differs I suggest you talk about somthing else.
