Saturday at the UofL women's game a part of Breast Cancer Awareness/Play4Kay days.

.
Saturday Cardinal Couple

-Syracuse game to raise awareness to fight breast cancer.

- "We're glad to be here...say, how about a loan?"


This may be the most important entry we've ever posted here at Cardinal Couple. There is a killer out there. It's name is Breast Cancer. We'd like to see it arrested.

You can help us in this fight by supporting the women's basketball team with attendance to the many "Play4Kay" games that will donate toward the $ 1 million dollars that
we hope will be raised for breast cancer awareness and funding.

We're going to put it at you pretty simply and direct. If you are reading this, you had a mother. In most cases here, your mother raised and nurtured you. In most cases, you either love and honor that mother that is still alive, or miss her departure from this earth.

My Mom loved the Pink
Panther movies with
Peter Sellers.
I'd give anything to be able to talk to my mom again. If you have a mother still living, or know a mother...please help this worthy cause. A mother's love is unconditional. Breast Cancer is the last thing you'd ever want for your mother...or anyone else's mom.

Please do what you can to help eradicate this horrible killer.

Wear pink tomorrow at the UofL women's game, please...if you go. And, if you are fortunate enough to still have a mother living...tell her how much you love her. 

It's the most beautiful thing out there...

We hope you will make a difference. WE hope to see you tomorrow doing so...by attending. God bless motherhood.

Always.

*************************************************************************

During Play4Kay week, women's basketball teams and supporters across the nation will dedicate at least one game to raise breast cancer awareness and funding. Teams, fans and arenas will be decked out in pink, survivors will be honored at games, referees will blow pink whistles (mostly against Syracuse...we hope) and donations will be collected.

Previousy known as the WBCA Pink Zone, the Play4Kay mission remains the same: a nation of coaches raising breast cancer awareness for research on the court, across campuses, in communities and beyon. The Kay Yow Cancer Fund, in partnership with the WBCA and the V Foundation, is the official charity of the initiative.

You can go to http://www.play4kay.org/ , http://www.kayyow.com/ and http://www.jimmyv.org/ for much more information and to find out how you can help.

Game time today is two. WHAS TV has the digital broadcast. We'll after a full recap a few hours after the Cards beat Syracuse.

Remember to wear your pink if you go.

Finally, in the category of "Really? SMH..."

West Virginia has received their release from the BIG EAST and can now participate in BIG 12 sports. The price tag? $20 million. The problem? WVU only has $11 mil.

So, the other schools in the BIG 12 are putting up $1 million each to pay the tab. It's a loan...of course. The Mountaineers will be expected to pay the money back. This should have been a Seinfeld episode...

George: "Jerry, I'm doing it. I'm making the big move. It's going to cost me...but I can live in your building now!"

Jerry: "That's great, George!

George: "There's just one small problem. I'm coming up a bit short on the down-payment."

Jerry: "How much short?"

George: " 45% of it..."

Kramer: "Well, Jerry will lend it to you! I'll chip in, so will Newman and Elaine. Right, Jerry?"

George: "Really? Thanks, Jerry!"

Jerry: (Rolling his eyes...) "Welcome to the neighborhood.."
