Everybody and their mother seems to have the yellow wristband nowadays. Not only has it become a trendy accessory, but it also is for a good cause.

According to Lance Armstrong, the guy behind the idea, 33 million people are wearing the “LiveStrong” bright yellow wristband, which sell in the US for $1 each, 77 cents of which goes to cancer research.

Now, Nike comes up with its “Stand Up Speak Up” wristband, which is an anti-racism wristband. This comes after the increase of racism in football recently, especially in places like Spain. The Spanish coach, Aragones, was heard calling Thierry Henry (Arsenal and France striker) “that black shit”. This was followed by monkey chants coming from the Spanish crowd everytime a black player touched the ball when England played against Spain. Also, in the Spanish Liga itself, many black players have been abused by fans everytime they touch the ball.

This new wristband is backed by Henry, Ronaldinho, Ferdinand, Puyol, Roberto Carlos, Adriano, Cannavaro, Van Nistelrooy, Rooney, plus many more football superstars.

Obviously, this was sold out as soon as it was in the market. I personally think its a great idea! I would love to have one, because of the cause, and because it actually looks good!

As a side note,

I suggest we start our own wristband for anti-women’s rights and distribute it to BoRamia and his shilla. I suggest a wristband made entirely from human hair, and the hair has to be long and dirty, just like their beards.
