Long hair vs. Horse Collar

[ElTexan]

Because you can control whether you have hair hanging out the back of your helmet.

Again. For the millionth time. This isnt about ‘Blame.’
Supposedly, this is about player safety.

 

[GoldRusher]

The rule SHOULD be, once the helmet is on anything hanging outside will be cut off by the officiating crew.

 

[Slag]

Again, you’re missing the point. If just grabbing a guy by the back of the pads on the collar is such a risk to health that it needs to be penalized 15 and a fresh set of downs, how can they let a situation continue where a guy can get his head snapped back by his hair at the speed to elite athletes?

there is no point to be made. Your making a topic out of bullshit like other threads.

As rules state if you bring down a defender by the upper shoulder pads that is a penalty. If you choose to grow hair that can be used as a tool to which the opposing player can utilize to tackle you, it’s your own damn fault.

this is also how the pros see it. So your whole stupid ass thread is bullshit

Again. It’s not about blame, it’s supposed to be about safety. God, you’re dumb

You choose to put yourself in harms way. That’s on you. Deal with it.

da fuck
What is your goal here?
To argue that a player can’t have long hair, good luck with that.
If you don’t like the rules call your congressman.
Just another stupid ass thread to cite an argument. Which you don’t have one

So, they let players take off their helmets right before a play is snapped? God, you’re dumb.

Coming from you, I take that as a compliment. You’re literally the village idiot here. A literal laughing stock.

Nice on point retort, dunce.

Thanks, dunce. I thought you were leaving weeks ago anyways? Isn’t this pattern getting tired for you? You do this same song and dance every year.

Roy Williams broke a couple guys knees with the horse collar tackle so outlawing it was tied to safety. Go ahead and relate this to targeting somehow, we all know that is where you are headed. Post some data on injuries by being tackled by the hair or shut the fuck up. Or just shut the fuck up. Fn pussy Texan.

 

[Wishbone]

Why doesn't he just put his hair up in a man bun like El Texan does?

 

[Voltaire26]

How is it so dangerous to horse collar someone that it results in 15 yards and a free first down if you do it, but they allow you to grow your hair way past your helmet and it’s legal to be yanked back and tackled by it?

Yeah. That’s not the argument here. Let’s hear from someone with better than a Oklahoma ejukashun.

It is actually an unwritten rule between the players (don't intentionally grab the hair) ... but it happens, the players know the risk and they can alleviate the risk at any time.

The second comment makes you look petty and jealous ... you should have more respect for yourself.
