    Twitter rumor - this is the helmet the Ducks are wearing against Washington.

    between pink, gold and purple this might double as the Lingerie Bowl.

    What could be more embarrassing for a team than to lose to a team wearing pink? I like this idea.

    Nah won't be embarrasing. The reputation of the color pink is completely different than it was 10 plus yeas ago. I think it is awesome the Ducks are considering wearing the pink helmets, if it is true. As someone who has had family members fight breast cancer, I can only applaud the Ducks move on this one. Very cool.

    I've actually really started to like the pink in the NFL uniforms. I dunno why, just seems to accent it in a cool fashion.

    Pink as a color has always been associated with Ladies otherwise we'd tie it to testicular cancer rather than breast right? That said, I too applaud the cancer sentiment but in fairness outside of Carlton Banks, Polo and bubble gum, pink is for the women of our lives.

    It's done in the NFL and I think we'll be the first as the trend setters we are to do it with a helmet!

    I wouldn't at the same time want to change our Green and Yellow in for hot pink for longer than a weekend.

    That said and with this rivalry for this weekend, I'M GOOD WITH IT!!!!

    I'm actually looking forward to seeing what we wear for this one. I like how the NFL has incorporated pink for breast cancer awareness and I think it would be great if the Ducks did the same.

    Pink has a soothing effect, and to use it against the puppies will be hilarious

    I kinda had a feeling it was false. Pretty much every rumor about what the team is wearing usually turns out to be false.

    In a completely unrelated topic, I really wish I could find the current helmet style in a motorcycle helmet. Preferably this bad boy right here. That would be sweeeeet.

    I have to admit, I love the Ducks uniforms.

    Do they always keep it a secret what color scheme they are going to wear?
