I honestly didn't notice and don't care if it comes back. Sorry if it sounds blunt but the whole Susan G Komen scam really grinds my gears.

WWE seems to have slowed down on the Susan B Comen stuff this year. Still giving it attention, just not punching you in the face with it like they used to.

Don't wonder, just be glad it's gone.

The rope color never bothered me. I barely notice the color of the ropes till someone here throws a fit about it. But I am glad we aren't getting weekly 20 minutes segments with some survivors in the ring. It's nice and all, but not something I want to be reminded of while trying to enjoy wrestling. Wrestling is my time to forget about the outside world and all the issues in it. I think that's why the little things don't bother me as much as they do others.

Because John Cena is in China.
We can’t rise above cancer if the cure is in another continent.

SGK raises like hundreds of millions every year and only 1% of it goes to Cancer research/awareness. Yet the head of the charity gets a salary of $500,000 a year. that place man. I hope I never see a pink rope or their garbage logo again. At least find a charity that is there to help people and not be a money grabbing scheme.

I've noticed the NFL has also scaled back it's usage of pink.

All cancer is bad. Why does there need to be a month dedicated to Breast Cancer that’s constantly shoved down our throats? I’m glad it wasn’t forced this year. I honestly have barely seen it anywhere this year, so much that I completely forgot it was this month.

the day ya'll be affected by breast cancer (and i sincerely hope you never actually are) will be the day you understand.
however i agree with the charity scams they are everywhere.
perhaps there was no benefit for WWE this year, who knows..

I honestly have barely seen it anywhere this year, so much that I completely forgot it was this month. outside of lung cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer in the female population. it is akin to prostate cancer for men - and we have a whole month in November for that.

You should look into these things a little before getting outraged based on something you once heard someone say on a forum. www.snopes.com/fact-check/komen-ceo-salary/There are no charities of any significant size that are magically run without administration costs and, subsequently, salaries. Administering hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue requires a lot of people to oversee and process, like any other business. And like any other business, a charity has to offer competitive salaries.

He and I agree on almost nothing but we're completely in the same page on this one. That organization is a scam. Plus their LGBT discrimination and cutting funds to Planned Parenthood put a bad taste in my mouth.

It's maybe a little over your head, but the guy I quoted said "SGK raises like hundreds of millions every year and only 1% of it goes to Cancer research/awareness" - the Snopes link was pointing out that that is certainly not the case.
