K D Posted Tuesday at 03:42 PM Posted Tuesday at 03:42 PM When I played there was no such thing as concussions. If you got your "bell rung" you would get back up and get back in the game unless you were a wimp and then you went and cried for your mommy 1 Quote

Mr. WEO Posted Tuesday at 04:43 PM Posted Tuesday at 04:43 PM 1 hour ago, T master said: Okay 'll check it out but if it doesn't do anything 1 why is the NFL making it available & why are players using it ? And i don't know if you remember Kelso was famous for his helmet which he wore for the last 5 years of his career and i just read that he had 2 bad concussions which the doctor told him to quit playing football before changing to his padded helmet . Then Kelso him self in the interview i read said "Take a padded helmet and slam it on your knee a couple times then take just a normal helmet and hit your knee a couple times with it you will be in a lot of pain" . So i'll take his word on the subject and all of the players this year like Hamlin, Rapp, and many others in the NFL that it helps over a fans perspective . And the article was on Buffalo Rumblings which is an opinion article but is named - On NFL Concussions and Mark Kelso's Giant Helmet, if you would care to read his thoughts . the obvious answer is that the NGL can now say they are “doing something” about concussions. Also the players overwhelmingly reject this device. That should tell you all you need to know about this silly helmet schmatta Quote

I could tell your inquiring mind wanted to know all of this so your welcome !! Quote
