Humorous spoof on Live Strong

This is meant to be funny just wondering how others feel about it.

The Onion always has crap like this, that's why I love it.
Me, I like the black "live wrong" band.

Ironically funny but sad. The Livestrong bracelets are not advertising for Armstrong's lifestyle or sporting practices but rather are a fund raising device for the Lance Armstrong Foundation and as such have a noble purpose (helping to better cancer survivor's lives). These mock Armstrong personally (funny part) but pathetically capitalize on his fight against the ravages of cancer.
They are also sad in that the bracelets are no longer trendy by about 2 years. They are a little late to that party.

I see less of the livestrong bands on teens/preteens(replaced with a rainbow of different colors) and think it is ok to sport up a livestong band to show support for cancer victims/survivors if it has that meaning to you. I personally lost a family member to cancer and my mother and grandmother had cancer so I fully support any money raised to help.
