A visor is a large piece of plastic and you look through it at all different angles that change second to second. How, exactly do you make it "prescription?" I doubt a giant lens like glasses would work. What am I missing?

Just think how big the glass of water would have to be to get that visor down.

Has a hydrocodone dispenser attached to it. Kind of like a PEZ dispenser.

The only way to have a black visor is if it has a perscription

Not sure how an inanimate object would have a prescription.

I decided not to bother with contacts or glasses. Instead I installed a

This was my first thought. Why not get contacts? Seems it would be way cheaper.

Not uncommon. Isaac Asiata at the U wore one and he was a guard.

Still doesn't answer how Burt's vision would improve by simply using a visor as

That was on weeks they practiced at night.

Basically day on the field with those lights.

It doesn't correct vision. It protects the eyes and I believe prescription

There's no such thing

Hmmm. You jumped on to judge everybody on the thread, and express your hatred for them, based upon visor comments

jdub

Didn't say I hated you. What you described is what bugs me about folks here too

SPgoofyft

8/10/17 9:56am

kind of ironic, isn't it Mr. Pot, that you get after others for taking offense...

jdub

I didn't take offense

SPgoofyft

8/10/17 10:05am

Umm, your post says otherwise. "This whole thread right here is what I hate about the people on CB".

No it doesn't

Did you read my post or just the subject line? I'll bet you didn't even read the

Yeah, I read your whole post. In this whole thread, your post was the most judgmental and over-the-top

You are very easily offended. It's gonna be ok, I promise.
