Debo Samuels was just shown onthe NFL Network's 'Inside Training Camp Live' wearing what looked like a sports bra. I Googled it, and see it's something that bled over from soccer.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Without fail, every single week the same sequence of events plays out on the New England Revolution’s social media channels.

A photo of a player on the training ground is posted to Instagram, or Twitter, or Facebook, and when the comments begin to roll in, there’s one remark you’re guaranteed to find. Every. Single. Time.

“Hahaha! Why are they wearing sports bras?!?!”

The answer, of course, is that the players aren’t wearing sports bras. They might

look like sports bras, but in fact they’re athletic vests designed to hold GPS trackers. Those vests need to be skintight so the pod that actually acquires the data – which is slipped into the back of the vest – can monitor players’ performance.

Hence, the sports bra look.


Don't say it's not a sports bra. It's a sports bra that tracks movement and stuff. Can't they wear it under their shirt? Couldn't it have been sewn into their shirts?

My phone has an app that does that. I don't look stupid with it in my pocket when I'm exercising. I get similar results.

Who cares if it looks like a sports bra?


I have a solid rule of not giving a shite about what an athlete wears to practice

These have been around for a few years, including in college football. I know Alabama has utilized them.

These track way more accurately and more detailed information than your Apple Watch

These guys are million dollar assets for the team, so of course they’ll want the best data possible on them.

Most people have a better than a 10 year olds sensibilities when it comes this so it’s not really an issue for anyone

so you have an app on your phone where it tells you when you reach max sprint speed, how many steps it took to get up to speed, how many steps is took to run a certain distance, when in practice you ran your fastest?

the answer is no you fricking dont.

no you fricking dont. you have zero clue wtf you are talking about.

and who cares that you feel like it looks like a sports bra? how gay are you, worrying about what other guys are wearing at a closed football training camp practice?

LSU is literally wearing these with the new strength coach.....

It's all about data and the concept behind it is awesome.
