NYFAN, you can have TD celebrations, just not excessive, and not team celebrations (in the endzone). Plus, no using props.

I dont think its that big of a deal. Really they're only doing it to prevent things like Troy Palamalou getting his hair pulled and junk like that.

At my school we get detentions if our hair goes below the collar. Perhaps they just want NFL players to look presentable or whatever you would like to call it. Not that big of a deal. Its just hair.

That should not be happening. They look cool with the long hair. So what, if they want to have it, let them. If they want to get tackled by their hair, let them. Does it effect the NFL? No.

That is dumb. Do you go to a private school?

So much for Polomalu (however you spell it)!

There's hair restrictions at my school (private school) as well. This should be a non-issue, as it is the players decision if they want to wear their hair long. If they do wear it long, they know its going to get pulled, so if they can't deal with that, cut it.

The NFL isn't the Army. If they want to get their hair ripped out let em. Why should there be a rule like this?! Oh and I agree with NYFan they are taking a lot of fun out of the league. They are starting to throw that flag on just about everything funny they do in the endzone.

I'm looking for flames on the field and lions vs. players to the death for the losing team. Anything short of those two recommendations and I'll have to pass. "I'm bored."

Troy Polamalu's hair is entertaining. Don't do away with it! haha, good blog.

Apparently, the hair in question has to be short enough not to cover your name on the back or, tucked inside your helmet. But I agree..., this is gotta be one of the stupidest rules if it goes through. Players should have the right to have their hair as long as they want, have their own TD celebrations with or without props (I loved TO's cell phone and Sharpie celebrations in the past). If you can't be excited over scoring a TD then, what can you be exicted about in this league... a root canal on the sidelines?

They're eating lots of coconuts and fish in Tonga and Samoa. Oh, and Spam too.
