If Grange wore pink shoes, would we still call him, "Red?"

You probably would if you had to play against him.

When my first child was born, we picked out a diaper bag. We picked it for features and solid construction, and as it happened it also was decorated with quite a bit of pink. My wife asked me if I would be comfortable carrying what mostly looked like a big pocketbook that had that much pink on it. My answer?

Yes, totally. There's nothing at all unmanly about carrying a diaper bag of any color especially if you're 50% responsible for needing it.

The big fun was later on when shopping for more baby stuff. I'd set up the formula so I had a bottle of powder and one of water and a flattened paper cup to use as a funnel. (Glass baby food jars are great for this btw)
When the usually female sales people asked if I needed any help and I could just say nope, I've got this. And make a bottle on the spot. At least one said the setup was brilliant. I was also lucky my daughter didn't have to have the stuff warmed.

Rockne, Nagurski, Thorpe, and anyone else who was a professional athlete would wear whatever uniforms their teams told them to wear. It is a job, not a walkathon: the employees don't get to choose whether they wear their assigned uniforms:

Now if they were pieces of flair...
