Yes you are offended
You zoomers are broken. You think everyone is offended all the time.
No one is offended. Its stupid to lose protection to one of the most injured and vulnerable contact points in the sport.

No but it looks goofy and someone will get a dislocated knee fairly soon

No, but its an outward sign of possible retardation to leave the kneecap exposed.
The knee pads that slip into football pants are barely a quarter inch thick and only get in the way when you're trying to hit top speed in full pads. At best they cushion the blow a little bit if you catch a helmet directly to your kneecap, but that's about it.

And that's when you could REALLY HIT SOMEBODY and not the flag football of today

Somebody will take a complete separation at the knee and that will be the end of that.

Its not to reduce serious injury, its to prevent the nagging skin damage the player will get dragging his knee in the dirt or turf.

We already have "turf toe" is "Turf Knee" next?

These kids play flag football on defense compared to the bonecrushers that we grew up watching. The pads and uniforms reflect that.

Sure, why not, it was actually really good

A&M want butt-less pants...especially the centers.
Posted on 11/3/24 at 6:08 pm to Harry Wong
It's the new tranny pants
Posted on 11/3/24 at 6:09 pm to Opry
They look silly

It does look really gay. Running around like a Tour de France cyclist looking for his bike.
