If you have a career to go to the next day, or value your bank account, it baffles me that non professionals play without cages. Its purely for machismo reasons and others do not follow suit, purely due to the fear of being chirped and the perception of looking weak. Rather than their well being

I've lost a tooth, and had stiches to my lip/face several times in beer league. I picked up a cage but only wore it once because of all the chirping.
It drives me crazy.
Also, cages don't get scratched up and mess with your visibility.
I'm dumb for not wearing it.
