I'm no fan of Ogump, but this is much ado about nothing. Teddy Roosevelt was a man's man, and he forced football to make changes in the name of player safety.
I want to know what Ernest Hemingway had to say about football before I form my opinion.

probably not
more players would die on the football field from skull fractures - and it seems likely that athletes in sports like rugby and hockey will increasingly be recognized as having CTE as well

Which one was required to wear a helmet?

Rugby players don't use helmets. They have fewer issues with head trauma.

That's probably wrong - concussions have just not been appreciated as a problem in rugby because the culture of the sport discourages it.
