they are not trying to make them more revealing on purpose...just suppose to be more flexible, easier and lighter to move in according to my football buddy! but when they get wet...wow but if you notice more football players are wearing towels or there tops hanging over their pants to cover up the bulge but then some players dont care! better feast while you can because their will be a time when they will be required to wear protective garments/support to protect the goods! imagine being in the lockerroom, i thought i died and went to heaven!
