Helmet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) Helmets are common in the military, construction, mining and some sports, including American football, baseball, ice hockey and rock climbing. Helmets are among the most ancient forms of combat protection, and are known to have been worn by ancient Greeks, Romans, throughout the Middle Ages, and up to the end of the 1600s by many combatants.

Football Helmet -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) Helmets are among the most ancient forms of protection, and are known to have been worn by ancient Greeks and throughout the Middle Ages; at this time they were primarily military equipment, protecting the head from cutting blows with swords and flying arrows. This confusion is relieved by understanding that the perpendicular impact speed of the helmet is usually not the same as the road speed of the motor cycle and that the severity of the impact is determined not only by the speed of the head but also by the nature of the surface it hits. Helmet was acclaimed as a thinking person's heavy metal band, however, they have been criticized by some Metalheads for creating or paving the way for Nu Metal. www.becomingapediatrician.com /health/57/football-helmet.html   (1824 words)

After you have put the helmet on the player's head, it may sometimes appear to fit during the visual inspection, but subsequent test will show the need for adjustments to be made. www.footballfoundation.com /news.php?id=366   (1635 words)

Evolution of the Western Carolina Football Helmet :: The first version of a Western Carolina football helmet is believed to be solid gold, with the traditional gray (or metal-colored) face mask. During the one-year Dale Strahm tenure, the football helmets resembled those of LSU, with a yellow-gold dome with purple-white-purple striping down the center. Briggs wanted to return "The Cats" to the helmet in some fashion, and did so with the new modern look helmet which also incorporates a variation of the "Cat Eyes" logo that was prevalent on the WCU campus during the mid-1990s. catamountsports.collegesports.com /genrel/011305aao.html   (615 words)

SI.com - Writers - The 10 Spot: Dec. 10, 2004 - Friday December 10, 2004 1:12PM But even Notre Dame haters must concede, in their heart of hearts, that the Irish running onto the field in their navy blue (or green!) jerseys, gold pants and those gold helmets glistening in the sun is one of the classic sights in all of college football. Ohio State -- The unique element to this otherwise plain gray helmet with a modest center stripe of scarlet, fl and white is the introduction of the "buckeye leaves" in 1968. The helmet has been essentially unchanged for nearly three decades while the school has gone through two tigers, Mike IV and Mike V.

Past Time Sports: History of the Football Helmet An Annapolis shoemaker created the first helmet for Admiral Joseph Mason Reeves, who had been advised by a Navy doctor that he would be risking death or “instant insanity” if he took another kick to the head. His design was a special headgear which was held to his head by three heavy leather straps fashioned by a harness maker, thus giving the first football helmets the nomenclature “head-harness”. The idea was that the simple colors, in the first days of the forward pass, allowed receivers to finally be distinguishable to the quarterback when they were heavily covered and far down the field. www.pasttimesports.biz /history.html   (405 words)
