Puh-leazzze - if that helmet was "game used" it was used by a 12-year-old 49ers fan in his/her back yard. That's one of those semi-usable/semi-toy replica helmets made by Rawlings that were found at any Sears or JCPenney store back in the early-mid 1970s.

Seriously, the only "game use" on that helmet was from some 9 year old in his back yard...........

Sorry...didn't read completely Post 3 prior to my post

How could anyone think this was a real NFL game helmet?

Actually I think I overstated the age with "12-year-old"; "9-year-old" is probably closer.;)

Maybe it came with a letter.

I realize that you were just kidding about "some people need to be shot", but don't you think you got a little too upset over it?
May be time to re-think the importance of this hobby.

Nah, I think some people need to rethink the importance of a joke.

Sorry, I don't joke about killing people.
Glad you thought it was funny though. :) Enjoy your laugh.

The next time you hear a sports announcer say that a team is "getting killed" on the field, please don't call the cops.

It's only a fairly common figure of speech. :rolleyes:

Very, very differnet meaning entirely. Not even close to the same thing as saying someone NEEDS TO BE KILLED.
I am sue I am not the only one who can tell the difference.
And again, I know he was just kidding. Still in bad taste though.

Yes and I am in withdawl already. I found myself checking the Arizona fall league scores today. Harper went 1 for 2 with a bunt single, 2 walks, and a strike out.

I appreciate the leniency. :D

I'm not really a helmet expert so I did the wrong thing and assumed it was game used.

And as to being too upset over it, I've learned just over the past few weeks how great this hobby really is. If it really were a game used helmet, I'd be really upset because you don't just throw away a piece for no reason. I've recently had to sell my stuff off and I know its very cliche, but, you don't know what you got til its gone!
