well to be fair, your brain does kinda have it's own helmet... ya dont wear helmets in rugby ya know? you're not really supposed to tackle with your head... people aren't goats :S
you use your shoulder
but you're aiming for their hips so it makes sense rly.. what's an american football tackle? :S

that's called a high tackle in rugby, and it's not legal. you'd get a penalty every time..

They have been trying to get rid of that kind of tackle in football for a few years now.
They have made it a penalty and a disqualification
The problem is not all refs see it the same way.
Another problem is many times the guy with the ball lowers his head and the person who was going to make a legal tackle gets called for a penalty because now since the first guy lowered his head to use your saying they are now acting like goats but the guy tackling gets penalized
It’s just wrong

Hmmmmmm………..
Simon and Garfunkel
Sound of Silence
"The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence
Rush
Spirit of Radio
For the words of the profits were written on the studio wall
Concert hall
And echoes with the sound of salesmen.
