Ought to be fair game.

Since Hawaii proved beyond any doubt that the Sampson theory is bogus bull crap, and given that pony tails and dreads hanging out of the helmet have no practical player protection traits, all yanking, holding, and tackling by use of it should not only be allowed, but encouraged. xrulesx

It isn't allowed? I understand how you could get away with having it as a defensive player. Holding is holding. But as a RB or WR? I'd think it's fair game to bring you down.

Think you are right. But as for holding, if you hold onto an item that is not part of the uniform, like a breach towel, hand muff, or hair, is that considered holding? If so, it ought to be legalized.

Well as former o-lineman, we should both immediately agree that it's only holding if they throw the flag. xlolx xlolx xlolx

But seriously, if you grab anything above, or outside the shoulders, you only have yourself to blame. Hair is coming out the back is hard to yank without 1-getting toasted off the ball and 2- looking obvious.

I still think it would have been hilarious to have seen Hawaii's number nine get yanked down by that long pony tail he had hanging out.

Seems like I saw some big animal tackle Troy Palumollamumumumumumumu
by the dreads last season, and he drew a flag. Can't remember what the flag was for, but the announcers said it was not for the hair tackle, maybe just for spiking him after the play? xcoffeex :D xlolx xthumbsupx

Hair pulling? That's about as classless as spitting.

Don't go letting things hang outside your uniform or risk having them taken off. Includes your li'l smoky there DK. Spitting has nothing to do with class, it is just an invite to get your ass kicked.

The same could be said for hair pulling.
