I am watching Hawaii BYU Game. I am going for Hawaii if anyone cares, but sure BYU will win. Anyway, they been placing a big emphasis on concussions in American football. The helmets are kind of crazy looking. I go is that eye black. A substance that blocks out sun and lights that glare. Nope, that is the new helmets It is like a face clamp. I am not sure how to describe it. I guess more like a face support. It looks like some kind of support that goes to the mid cheeks of the players. I just saw the Hawaii Quarterback have it. Not sure if everyone has it. I go, I guess that could help players brains from rattling around, which is the true definition of a concussion. When your brains rattle around your skull, you now have a concussion. It happens way more than anyone will say.

And from the nature of the crazy game, concussions will most likely continue to be a problem no matter what the helmets turn into. The brains will still be rattling in the skulls of these guys. The head doesn't necessarily have to hit into anything or anyone. But with all the jarring and bodies flying everywhere, brains will continue to rattle.

Yeah, what my brother was explaining to. It was to low anyway and probably to stabilize next to stop spinal injuries. My brother said also you just cannot stop that because You brain already has a helmet and unless we cut people open and put padding inside when you get rocked it the head, the brain is just going to move around.

@crossbones27 I agree. The brain will continue to move. It's interesting that you mention cutting people opened and padding them inside. Though I have not heard of this option before - LOL - I am kidding of course, I somehow would not be surprised if some athletes try it.
