drdougfresh Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 They look ridiculous and they'd cut down on visibility so they're also dangerous. That's a good combo, Bad Ass Masks.I can just see Oregon and HGI working with this company to make some wicked helmets.Here are some more facemasks that B.A.Masks has made. Sorry for the size of some of them.There is no way in hell any of these designs will see the field. Might as well add some barbed wire or broken glass to them as well for a more intimidating effect.Also judging by a couple of these photos these products are nothing more than stock masks from schutt and riddell where someone has added some tacky custom welding and recoated.Darnell Dockett has a new mask...

Chawls Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 ...and it's WHITE?! Did the entire team switch to white facemasks? Quote If you hadn't noticed, Chawls loves his wrestling, whether it be real life or sim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichO Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Basically these masks are the football equivalent of having "no fear" and Calvin pissing decals in the rear window of a truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajmccall Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Its the next step of personalizing everything. I don't really see what you guys are so up in arms about (besides the pointy one) I understand its the nature of these boards, but it really is just a facemask.

Is it overkill, sure. Can I see why the kids would think its "B.A"? sure. Kids have awful taste for the most part. But I guess face masks cleats and gloves are the triad of crap i classify as "do your worst" and I won't care. Cause its not a team thing. You wanna wear ass ugly cleats? Knock yourself out, kid. However, Ol' One Bar Joe Theismann's head may explode when he sees these. If he's not too busy schilling boner pills for old men.

BlueSky Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 IIRC NFL players are only allowed to wear visors (at least dark/mirrored, not sure about clear) if they have a medical need. Of course I'm sure a prescription can be "arranged" for anyone who wants to wear one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coheed Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Yeah, that's gray. HUH? What is gray? Definitely white!Looks gray to me.Definitely gray. Just comparing it to the helmet makes it obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoknight Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Ridiculous? Yes. But at least most are team colored. That 'Zona one is dumb because of the colorization. Also, the pointy one is just begging an injury. What's next? Helmet Tusks for Arkansas? Bristles for USC and Michigan State? 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF. TITLES | 5th in HEISMAN | 7th in DRAFTS | 8th in ALL-AMER | 7th in WINS | 4th in BOWLS | 1st in SELLOUTS | 1st GAMEDAY SIGN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee it will reduce the league incidence of concussions....because it'll dramatically increase the league incidence of impalements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAWeaver Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I think the purpose of these facemasks are (think Osi Uminyora(?) said this) to prevent the opposing player from grabbing their face masks. @loganaweaver - Twitter / @loganaweaver - Instagram / Nike Vapor Untouchable Football Template / Logan's Logos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
