well baseball is boring to begin with, so they're not ruining things as much.

i liked how if you got enough sacks they put you in the pro bowl. but then the rules were no blitzing in the pro bowl.

i'm down with protecting QBs more than they did in the old days but some of the calls these days are brutal. if your fingers slap the QB on the helmet as you try a swim move to get around your blocker you roughed the QB? 15 yards? that's silly.

If they had meds to correct voices, the divorce rate wouldn’t be as high

I have no clue how effective those are compared to regular helmets but if the risk of getting a concussion is significantly reduced then they should become the norm around the league imho.

they just wear them in practice. i don't think it really helps that much.

I see.

as long as players aren't reluctant to wear them just because they look silly, I guess it would take some getting used to for everyone but protecting your brain should be the main priority.

i agree with that part for sure. they have introduced some new helmets over the last few years so they're trying.

off topic: i think we all can agree red facemasks instead of grey would really be better here.

yeah, and I would also opt for a more robot/Mandalorian look, just because.

it just matches. besides, a gold facemask on a gold helmet would be silly.
