    Larry Johnson's hair tackle on Troy Palamalu was classic. I loved it. :thumbsup:

    Troy can't complain. They were saying after on NBC post game it's illegal but I'm pretty sure when Ricky Williams always had long hair I heard there was nothing against pulling hair if it's sticking out

    Nothing will come from this because when Ricky Williams got tackled by the hair, the NFL said that his hair is apart of his uniform. Maybe this will teach all the long haired hipppies to get a hair cut. [​IMG]

    Yeah I think Bob Costas said it was cheating. He's a pinhead. Johnson did get flagged for taunting because he held on to the hair too long and talked some shit.

    I'm personally glad it happened. Too bad he didn't rip some of it out. Don't get me wrong, Troy is an excellent athlete, but why look like a chick? Have you guys seen the commercials with him in them? His hair goes half way down his back. Damnit, guys should have short hair and girls should have longer hair. Maybe he will get the hint after that happens 3-4 times per game for the rest of the season.

    At least they aren't hair extensions like I heard on TV. Maybe Larry was just curious.

    Troy was cool about it. He just ran to the bench. He wasn't complaining or pissed.

    Nothing personal but might want to take that silly quote out of ur sig...They haven't played overly great but the "Super Bowl" Champs(I got it in quotes because of all the horrible calls in the SB)
    are not doing good at all!Ben is OVERRATED...I like the kid but he is overrated..The pressure they've put on him is too much..He is a solid qb(Better than my own Alex Smith,IMO) but he is not on the same ground as Tom Brady and definately not on same level as Peyton Manning..

    Deion Sanders actually got in a pretty good quip regarding the tackle on Gameday.



    Deion Sanders - I saw a guy get tackled like that in college and he was never the same.

    Rich Eisen - Who was it?

    Deion Sanders - Matt Hasselbeck.



    I have to admit that I got a pretty good chuckle out of that one.

    Not to encourage getting off-topic, but what does the Steelers play have to do with a prediction about the Bengals?

    I missed this post earlier. Why all the hatred for long hair? I guess your not a big fan of rock music. Personally, having gone through high school in the early 80's, I don't see the big deal. You couldn't find an era where guys had, not only long hair, but bigger hair. You could tell David Lee Roth that he looked like a girl, but I'm sure he probably got so much action that he had to turn most of it down. I'm just sorry that I never really had great long hair back in the day when I could have it and not worry about how bosses might feel about it. I didn't really want big hair. Ace Frehley hair (and guitar skills) would have been awesome.

    I hope you suffa!!!
