Over at the Slice blog Paul Turner writes: It must hurt like hell when football players with exceptionally long hair feel their locks get caught against another player and be inadvertently tugged, yanked or even deliberately pulled.

What if it got snagged on someone's helmet?

I also shake my head at the all the football players with long flowing locks. Seems hot. And potentially painful.

Question for the men of Hucks Online: Have you ever had long hair? How long?
