Sparano: Guys will have to earn the right to wear a logo on their helmet.

I believe they did this in Dallas as well.

Great character we have. He said "I like the way they looked out for each other out there".

 

I REALLY like this type of stuff.

Millionaires or not, these guys have to earn their stripes.
I think a lot of these players take being in the NFL for granted and coast once that huge contract is signed.

This is "old school" and a great approach to take IMO.

 

Yes, Parcells did it there. Another small psychological smack to the heads of the players.

 

Yeah, I like these types of things. Some may think its not that big of a deal but it still shows you that you have earn it.

I agree.

 

he should make them wear jets logos when they suck.

 

i think a lot of teams do this with their rookies... its nothing new

 

Ahh, just rookies?

I thought they were doing this with everyone, vets and all.
That would be a refreshing challenge to a roster

 

This only works for practices, NFL has rlues that Logos must be worn during games.

 

I love the idea of having to earn your logo though. What happens come week 1 of the preseason though. Im sure they have to have them on the helmets for the game.

 

Yes you have to have logos on all helmets for games.

The message is loud and clear during practice weeks though.

 

So this was how you got to 16000 posts..

 

i guess the Browns never heard of that rule. They dont even have a logo.

 

not called for.

 

LOL, u think the browns are a real NFL team.

hey, it is what it is......

 

the browns arent real? oh yeah, i guess you have to win a super bowl to be real. Sorry Clumpy.

Go Dolphins!

 

If Sparano really wants to get players to put out their max, he should say they'd need to earn their cups during full contact scrimmages.

 

A lot of players don't wear padding and cups etc. TMI maybe, but it's true.

 

Well, I'd certainly want some protection if we're practice goal line formations or full-tackle practices.

 

during Lax in HS we used to get stick checked in the nuts by our HC everyday to make sure we were wearing cups... sometimes people werent

 

heh, take a look at the ENTIRE "Alens 16000 post" thread from last week, youll have an additional 16,000 posts from saying not called for form every post there.. Dont take things so seriously..

 

That DEFINITELY is TMI

 

if you got out of the line because you werent wearing one and didnt wanna get hit, he'd make you run laps.

 

There is just something I like about Sparano. He just seems like a leader and a communicator. I never really had that feeling with Cam. Not that I hated Cam; he just had different qualities.
