I can't help it and believe me, neither can they. Oh, and technically there are two Stars on their helmets, not a lone star.

its kind of hard not to clown on you right now. You are from Texas, you would think of all people you may understand the ONE star on each side of the helmet. the ONE start is the LONE star, I guess the football ball field since it has a star in the middle of field and stars in the endzone that is wrong too?

A really tough question : why do the colts have horseshoes on their helmets?
And what is with the wings on the eagles helmets, that is stupid.
