I don't get it.Do those same rules apply to the college ranks as well? Do you agree or disagree with it? Are there any other penalties you feel shouldn't be penalties?

Crazy isn't it ? I don't agree with the rule, but if they do change it they would have to handle it like a face mask penalty, because of the possibility of incidental vs. deliberate. I can't say there are other penalties I disagree with, but I wish they would stop coddling these quarterbacks so much. Soon you won't be able to touch them at all.

Since hair is not part of the uniform, it's fair game. Not sure I agree with the horse collar tackle rule, though.

The players choose to wear their hair long which makes it OK. and it's not part of the uniform. For example, if a player wears a neck collar, it's part of the uniform and can't be used to bring a player down. I agree with it.

any player who wants to wear his little girly locks like that on the field should be prepared to be tackled by it. the NFL made that rule last year. it's no different than grabbing their leg or arm as it is a part of their body.
