From realgm.com
The NBA informed the Heat on Friday that Dwyane Wade can no longer wear his stylish bandages on the court.

Wade can wear the bandage beneath his left eye if necessary, but he isn't allowed to place any special logos or text on them.

"We have a rule that players are not permitted to display any identification [promotional or otherwise] during games on their body, hair, etc.," league representative Tim Frank wrote in an e-mail to the Miami Herald.

Wade wasn't surprised by the league's reaction.

"I don't really have anything to say. I expected it," he said through a team spokesman.
WTF!

No band-aid?

Wade puts up 46 points, 10 assists, 8 rebounds in 1st game without it

I asked about this during the All-Star Break & you guys told me it was covering a cut. I figured that band-aid would stay long after that cut healed...and then turn into a new fashion statement.

The band-aid was stupid, a marketing ploy and needed to go. Much like the pointless shooting sleeve, all for looks and it wouldn't be long before 3-quarters of the league was wearing one.
