Fleas May Have To Seek New Shelter

Look, I can go either way on the issue the Chiefs are raising about players' hair flowing out from the backs of their helmets. On one hand, it could be a safety issue like it was when Larry Johnson pulled Troy Polamalu down after an interception. Of course, that did happen a year and a half ago, but I guess better late than never. On the other hand, if players want to risk giving their opponents something else to hang onto in the name of vanity, more power to them.

All I'm saying is that there could be some people who might get a little edgy when a large group that identifies themselves as Indians start talking about forcing haircuts on them.

From a Buccaneer standpoint, the only players I can think of that this would only affect are Patrick Chukwurah and Davin Joseph, and pulling either of those guys down would be a holding penalty. And if you're dumb enough to try and pull Joseph down by his hair, you deserve the beat-down you're about to get.
