Sounds like they already found some and are getting them certified. Thanks anyways! Enjoy your helmet. On a series note, I hope they forget all this helmet stuff and he just tries on a normal new one. I don't want to revisit this in a couple years time again.

Nothing you posted has anything to do with the DBL standard. He followed and did exactly what Brady did last season, but with all if the backlash? Went through the proper channels, said many of the same things. However Tom was given an exemption. It was let go by the media within the week. Why, because he's Tom GD Brady!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is using the new helmet. The point is no one is given an exception as the NFL and the NFLPA view this as a safety issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or stay away from the team in part because of it? Tom Brady handled things like a sane professional. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AB was getting laser surgery in another country for his feet, not hiding out because of this helmet stuff. The only time he would have stayed away from the team for this topic was when he set up an official meeting with NFL officials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd give him the helmet if Nathan Peterman plays 51% of the Raiders snaps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Aww jeez Jonny you love that Peterman guy" would pretty much do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where he asked for his helmet to be Grandfathered in. Was allowed to use it. Edited August 15, 2019 by Nabbs4u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
