Hair-brained idea

I've always wondered why any football player would want their hanging out of their helmet since it could so easily be used against them. Rutgers Jourdan Brooks found out last night against Louisville what it's like to be dragged down by his dreadlocks. This appears to be a very painful way to get tackled.

Making this situation even odder is the fact that Louisville's Travis Norton, the man who made the tackle, also has dreads. Isn't there some sort of dreadlock protocol that was violated?

this seals it. No way I'm getting dreads.

I stopped trying a few years ago. Just didn't look right.
