spandex on men is plain wrong, just so wrong wrong wrong, my wife woudl leave me if I wore them and I have a decent athletic body and rightly so for her too.
This wearing a helmet, well I; not sure if it is in my state as 99% of men do not wear helmets nor do the kids in my neighborhood but those men which do begs me to ask , how did they ever get through childhood with out all their padding, helmets etc?.
Next we’ll have mothers raising their boys and watch them play Barbie and tell others that it;s OK to do.
No wonder real men are disapearing.

I, for 73, also am in good shape.
OF COURSE, one must concede ROUND is a shape.
I played football BEFORE the mandatory ‘face mask’ and when they got around to it, it was just a plain single bar AND it seemed to interfere with my vision (sure that was just my mind saying ‘how stupid it was’)
Also in baseball the ‘batting helmet’ was 2 pieces of plastic held together with a couple strips of elastic type material...
In going along to get along I will say that I was saved from at least a good shiner when batting with the helmet in place, I was squared around to bunt and turned my head on an inside pitch, the force of the ball hitting the ‘helmet’ sent it flying — although I recall ‘we’ did sort of wear it as high as possible so it could be easily thrown off after hitting the ball.... Naturally the ‘helmet’ impeded ones ability to run.
I think it was mandatory in Little League but not in HS or Babe Ruth League.
I have 3 standing rules.
If you EVER see me with a back pack or book bag ON, shoot me on the spot. (I have considered ‘changing’ my mind on a fanny pack as that is (or could be) an excellent place to carry concealed).
If you EVER see me put luggage on top of my SUV or use one of those ‘bumper extenders’, shoot me on the spot.
If you EVER see me in Spandex, AFTER you stop laughing, shoot me on the spot and as a favor to all, SHOOT the SOB that either sold it to me or gave it to me.
THANKS...
