NFL to force haircuts?

At their meetings in Palm Beach, Fla., next week, NFL owners will consider a proposal to ban players from having hair flow from their helmets below their names on the back of their jerseys.

That might affect Polamalu’s image, but help him on the field. Two seasons ago, the Pittsburgh safety with the long ponytail had his hair grabbed by Kansas City’s Larry Johnson and was thrown to the turf after an interception against the Chiefs.

The rule banning long hair on the field was proposed by Kansas City. It does not require players to get haircuts, but does “require them to tuck it up inside their helmets,” said Atlanta president Rich McKay, chairman of the league’s competition committee.

Polamalu is the best known of the players, most of them defensive backs, with hair flowing outside their helmets. Others include cornerbacks Al Harris of Green Bay and Mike McKenzie of New Orleans.

Because the rule was proposed by a team, the competition committee did not take a position on it. It will be discussed Monday with a package of other rules.

they should do away with smiles. Fuck smiling.....who do these players think they are?!

Say bye bye to the dread locks in Green Bay.

But seriously, I doubt this idea will get passed by the owners. It's the stupidest shit I've ever heard them vote on. It would offend too many long haired football fans.

if a player wants to have long hair, then so be it.  they know that its legal for the opposing team to grab the hair and tackle em, so its their problem, not the NFLs.

[Don Jacob]

Whats the big deal? Tuck your fuckin hair into your helmet or cut it and get the fuck over it. They are protecting their investment.
