    Vanity trumps safety. Every dang time.

    Personally I think it looks really cool..and that they should get over it. I didn't realize that baseball players actually think their uniforms and such look good.

    When the current helmets seem to work just fine I would like to see a helmet that keeps them from doing steroids.

    "some MLB players scoffed at the new design citing concerns that the extra padding was too bulky and too geeky-looking"

    Because making $$$$$$$$$$$$$ is more important ending up as a vegetable drooling into you pillow! :P

    Ironically David Wright said he'd have no problem wearing it just a couple days prior to his beaning.

    all your comments about fashion and steriods have nothing to do with this helmet or the way it looks. the old helmets work fine when pitchers have control and can throw 100 mph where they want to. b\But lets see if anyone out there online would step up to the plate against someone who was throwing 100mph and not wear this helmet, then we can talk! no matter how ugly it is, id want to be safe. we dont drive cars without brakes do we?
