Hey Paul,
I usually am on board with most of your points. However, on this one I’ll disagree. To me it starts that slippery slope of the nanny state, or in this case, the nanny league.
If it was up to me, I’d wear one, and especially love the idea of cut resistant socks. I’ve been cut twice when I played as teen and college. Where I draw the line, is authorities who tell us what to do. Make sense, and I’ll be on board. Just don’t tell me I must. Mandates like this make me feel like I need someone to tell me what to do. I’d like to think I’m sharp enough to do the right thing. If not, I must live with the consequences. Too much big brother for my comfort.
Thanks! |
