What is the wrist band and finger used for in football?

Some people use wrist bands for extra stability when "punching" a guy, or blocking him with your arms in a shoving movtion. Usually, taping your wrists works better though. I dont know what you meant by finger, but guys would tape their fingers when they would jam them or hurt them in some other way. The most practical use for the wrist band was usually to wipe sweat, and to put one around the chin strap to make it more comfortable and prevent it from slipping off with sweat.

It is my understanding that the NFL has been requiring players to wear helmets for many years now.  They are standard equipment.\n\nPS. Patriots rule.

Black band is usually to grieve and pray tribute to a player or personality\nIt is also sometimes worn to show protest. For example, a few teams visiting Zimbabew wore black armbands to protest against the dicator Mugabe

Those armbands are part of Muay Thai tradition. They are called the Pra Jiad and fighters wear them for self confidence and good luck in their matches. They don't necessarily have to be made out of rope but also from some other materials that hold special meaning for fighters.

Im not sure, they do it in baseball too...I've played both, had many ass slaps. \n\nFor football, maybe because its one of the areas with the least padding on it, and its easy to get your attention.

Alot of the running backs use them to get a little extra grip on the ball.  Other players use them to make their biceps look bigger

Well lets see, its a foot long and its a ball. Football\n\nLets see, to start the game you use your foot (not hands) to kickoff. To get a field goal- you use your foot (not hands) to kick it threw also with extra points.\n\nPunts also are kicked.

In some countries it is worn on the right hand.  However, in the US and most Western countries it is worn on the third finger of the left hand.

Pro football players wear them when they play outdoor games in the snow/cold.  Unless you are doing something similar, it's not ok.

Well, in the NFL, I think you can make contact within five yards of the line of scrimmage. So I guess you can push him to get an advantage on your route. I'm not sure if you can actually push him down though.  And the rules might be completely different for 2-touch football compared to tackle, just like floor hockey and ice hockey have different rules.

If by "give me five", you are talking about the open handed light slap of palm on palm, it was started back in the 1970's by black sports stars.  They started doing it when they made a touchdown whatever.\n\nThey didn't dance around in the end zone back then.
