Tom Brady helmet

he wore one of the new-fangled helmets on Sunday after stubbornly resisting for years. will he revert to old form as the Patriots revert to their 'usual' uniforms, or is the change for good?

P. Manning was among the first great established QBs to switch, to Revolution in 2003, which he continues to wear.

I don't think the new helmets let him listen into the opposing team's radio traffic as well.

Oh sorry, nevermind, the Pats don't cheat.

I think President Obama will make an announcement on this tonight. I'm sure the country can't wait to hear whether Brady will be wearing the new style or old style helmet.

helmet/facemask choice is a huge component of the aesthetic presence of a quarterback, particularly when viewed through the medium of television. this is very relevant.

I'm sure people who suffered child abuse think that little joke of yours is hilarious.

If it has any relevance, it's that it might make Brady less likely to get a concussion.

The only thing I'd care about him wearing would be a new ring.
