The Importance of Brains

I don't have any political or social commentary to post today, so maybe a little history is in order. Ponder this significant fact:

The first testicular guard, the "Cup," was used in Hockey in 1874. The first hockey helmet was used in 1974. That means it only took 100 years for men to realize that their brain is also important.

Not surprising. I played baseball/softball for 50 years and always wore a cup, but never a helmet. Even in Little League. Now that I'm 73, I think I'll take up bicycling, and won't wear either.
