Pondering the comments of Cathy:
 
Is the color controversy at all instigated by the appearance of the Nike
"swoosh" on the
Black Bear uniforms for this new season ?  Lindsay noticed this before me,
but I was sort
of proud we got into the "big leagues" of sports marketing, perhaps in the
wake of our
national championship last year.
 
Is it that CCM has colors Nike doesn't ?
 
pardon me for dumb question, but - is Columbia Blue the dark or light blue ?
