I get that, but I just don't see how actually removing the helmet will reduce concussions. There are a huge amount of serious concussions in both rugby codes ..... And NFL players would all have to very quickly learn how to tackle properly etc.

Can't say I see it happening.

If so, then America is nearer collapse than we ever thought. The obsession with sport and putting people at risk is a hallmark of Empire death. It helps ignore the fraud and foul play which is looting the entire system.
