When did the NFL start allowing players to play without helmets?
Reactions to his comment can be seen by typing his name into a twitter search. To use Pitt. slang, what a jag-off

>> The problem for Mendenhall – and others who do it – is that you cannot get any deep thoughts across on the brief window permitted by Twitter. So no matter how bright Mendenhall is, he obviously did not understand this. He should have learned it last month with his comments comparing NFL players with slavery. Now he’s in a big jackpot. The PR fallout will be tremendous, it already has. Talk show hosts are sending him thank you gifts today. He will be booed at Heinz Field, any endorsement possibilities will dry up, he might even have some trouble with teammates. While the Pirates were visiting the Navy Seals – responsible for bin Laden’s death – in San Diego, Mendenhall spews inane stuff about whether the towers came down because the planes hit them. If I’m advising Rashard Mendenhall, I have him immediately apology and how he did not get his views across well. And then do away with his Twitter account. Blog, if you must, at least if you have deep thoughts, you can express them better in that forum.
