CodeMonkey Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I applaud the effort. I wonder why the SB though and not during the season, if not the entire season. Media exposure I guess. I sure they hope they come up with some solution. It is a shame to see these guys become drooling idiots at 50 from all the concussions. It is worse when you consider all the HS and college players that get the brain injuries and don't even get the NFL money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) CNN had a pretty good special on highschool players and head injuries. Showed a helmet with 9 sensors that reports back magnitude and direction on just about anything that touches the helmet Edited January 31, 2012 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I couldn't help but wonder right away what was so special with it, that it actually buckles? But it's good to see that some people actually care. Hopefully it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Well, he is a Patriot so it's not surprising he'd be wearing a revolutionary chin strap. He's gonna look pretty stupid in that three-cornered hat, though. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
