Weird. I was advised by one of our UICs not to use one, that dangling throat protectors are "too baseball".

That wouldn't be wade, would it?

I'd discount the advice of anyone who told me to not wear some protective equipment due to some kind of softball-baseball image issue.

I wear a dangling throat protector and I have no doubt it has saved me a few times. I'm not in his area but the only thing I've ever heard about a throat protector is to black out the white lettering. I'm always suprised at UICs who say stupid stuff like "it's too baseball"... although I personally have never heard that.

I have heard that said to me when I decide to wear my West Vest but its just a comment, I dont take it seriously. If they are bringing it, I put on the WV.
