Love that thing. I bet you'll start seeing players on other teams copy these guys.

can't wait

To see Herzlich healthy in preseason. He showed some flashes in limited playing time at MLB for us and I think he could be our MLB of the future. That facemask is ill too

mask

Why the little hook thing hanging down between the eyes? Think that would be distracting. Other than that I love it.

He looks a little leaner

than last year

don't like the facemask

Giants : 5/31/2012 11:46 am : link

but I'm hoping Herzlich has a great career with the Giants

copying these guys?

RicFlair : 5/31/2012 11:48 am : link

there are probably players on every team with facemasks like that.

The loop

Makes it harder for a hand, foot, or ball to poke in there, but it's not as obtrusive at a center bar.

I watch a lot of football and I've never see that face mask other than on canty and tuck.

Halfback, there was one other Giant who wore it...

My favorite part of this thread is poster Csonka (no offense meant)

FranknWeezer : 5/31/2012 12:34 pm : link

asking about the u-bar above the facemask and saying it seems distracting...

Nice ...

Beer Man : 5/31/2012 12:37 pm : link

My kids call it the Darth Vader facemask.

Rickey Jackson was the original

the facemask

Giants : 5/31/2012 12:42 pm : link

is nothing new. its been around

and then there's this monster

Greg from LI : 5/31/2012 12:46 pm : link

that is sweet.

3rdandSmith : 5/31/2012 1:06 pm : link

he must've gotten his eyes gouged or something in order to want a facemask that protective.

Remember when this was the hip and trendy facemask

truebluelarry : 5/31/2012 1:32 pm : link

of the moment?

I remember when no one wore face masks

slefrak : 5/31/2012 2:55 pm : link

that was an amazing era and then the kickers with the single bar

I think we used to call that "hook"

PeterS : 5/31/2012 3:47 pm : link

a bull's ring.
