albacized Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 When a football player has long hair, so long that it extends well outside his helmet, can you grab it to tackle the guy? No one does it...so I assume it's illegal. But I've never heard of any rule against it and never saw it tested on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip0ls Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 it counts as part of his uniform, and it'd be completely legit to tackle him by the hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charloots Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 it counts as part of his uniform, and it'd be completely legit to tackle him by the hair. you can't horse collar a guy but you can yank him down by his hair? I can't wait to see it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassNuts Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'm assuming you're referring to the crap that a lot of the running backs are wearing...wouldn't that be considered a horsecollar according to the new rules ? If they wore hair like that when I played college ball, you bet your butt I would have grabbed it..by the handful...then give it back to him CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditch Jigger Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Just once, I'd love to see someone grab Al Harris' hair and yank him down. It'd be worth the 15 yards to me if I played against him "…if catching fish is your only objective, you are either new to the game or too narrowly focused on measurable results.” - D.

I.C. Sines Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 saw Marvin Jones tackle Ricky Williams by the hair several years . once he got the angle and chance he went straight for hair . needless to say it was great .

There's a lot of Polynesian dudes in the league running around all bushy haired. I know I wouldn't want that crap in my face if I was near him.
