For your argument, you need to provide a study that correlates the wearing of these shields to heat stroke and cite that. Stupid frick.
You have it arse-backwards, as usual. Where is the study that proves putting player's heads in a plastic bubble is a safe practice?
Google 'LSU helmet shields'. This ramshackle experiment is drawing negative reviews across the country.

In any litigation that would come of this, the plaintiff would have the burden to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the face shield represents an unreasonably dangerous condition that is not outweighed by the utility of the shield in preventing the players from contracting coronavirus.
Good luck.

No, I really don’t.

That’s actually a fair point. But is the precedented standard that the burden of safety must always be studied and proven before any uniform changes are allowed? My guess is no.
My guess is also that this is being monitored and if enough players throughout the country complain, then they’ll lose the shields. Didn’t we have some super tech implemented last year that measures all kinds of stuff? Surely oxygen levels is one of the metrics they monitor, no? But more importantly, can’t we all just be honest and agree that nobody knows what the frick to do? That this is an unprecedented situation, but everybody is doing their absolute best to figure shite out on the fly? Without the threat of lawsuits? If they do nothing, one side wants to sue because they’re not doing enough? Try out a face shield for a few days, got another side wanting to sue because they’re doing the wrong thing? frick man, we’re all in this together, perhaps a little latitude and benefit of the doubt is warranted?
