No Fun League at it again

NFL owners will consider the length of hair flowing from helmets

Dumb. So their name is covered... its not hurting anything. Sure, in the grand scheme of things, its not a huge deal to have a few guys get hair cuts. But why bother. You are probably only talking about a handful of guys anyway.

They should just allow pulling hair tackles and let things take care of themselves.

they aren't saying you need to cut your hair..you just have to tuck it into your helmet...i stand firmly behind the belief that they are just bored and need something to do

I believe they are allowed to do that, but I could be wrong.

Oh OK. Then they have to color it the same color as the jersey so it blends in.
Ugh,long day.

They can, it happened two years ago to Polamalu and they asked after the game if he was mad and he shrugged and said it was part of the game.

The hair is considered part of the uniform and may be used to tackle someone.

Its funny how you can pull someone down by the hair but not by the collar of their jersey, basically the same action and could result in the same injury that started the Roy Williams in the first place.

Exactly what I was thinking... it really doesn't make sense how one can be legal but the other isn't. You shouldn't be reaching up there to make a tackle anyway.
