Girls in Pink
Please stop wearing the pink Red Sox gear.
Yeah, you. The girl in the white shorts, white and pink cropped Red Sox jersey, and pink Red Sox hat. Please go home. I’ve never had an intelligent conversation about baseball with a girl that has owned pink Red Sox paraphernalia (especially if it had an 18 on it). Yes, you are perfectly coordinated. Congratulations. Now please go change.
Yes I get it. You’re a girl. You grew up in Boston, so you know you must love the Red Sox or be considered a total punk. But being a girl and loving the Red Sox does not equal pink attire. The team colors are red, white, and blue. The green jerseys are cool, if you want to mix it up. But please stop the pink. Paris Hilton doesn’t play first base.
And him, your sweet boyfriend. He got your fifth row seats for the game. How thoughtful. Now you’re spilling your Fenway margarita on him and asking what a balk is. Dude, don’t waste good tickets on a girl who wears PINK RED SOX gear. It’s killing me. Give the tickets to someone who knows what’s going on, and wouldn’t desecrate the team uniform that way. Please.
Stumble it!

I heard someone use the term “pink hat” on the radio this morning. He was talking about his wife, who enjoys the sport but is more of a fan of looking cute than knowing what’s going on. It made me think of this article that I read a while back. I am a fan of pink, and while I agree the full blown pink outfits are a bit much and does scream “I’m here to look cute.” I think just a subtle pink hat can say, “I can like baseball and being a girl too.”
