wtf is reese wearing

Knights used to try to chop off each others heads with less protection than Reese Witherspoon used to shag a fly ground balls yesterday in Culver City.  People who test bulletproof vests don’t wear anything over their face, yet for some reason Reese needed all this to save her from the giant ball rolling toward her in the grass.  Ironically she can’t seem to see the damn ball, meaning this mask actually forces you to get hit in the face because you can't see anything, and will probably fall down in the balls path. This “safety equipment” only invites more danger.  It would be like you put on pads to go into a tiger cage, but you couldn't find any real pads so you instead you made some pants out of meat.
