Knee and Thigh pads back in 2013

I know its old news, but i thought id bring it up. Starting in 2013 all players will have to wear knee pads and thigh pads again.

I know most NFL players hate them, but im kind of happy. Its part of the classic NFL look i grew up with. Not sure how much good theyll do in preventing anything, but it looks better imo.

It's cos of all the lower hits players are taking nowadays because of goodell's stupid Tom Brady protection rules...
