I've been so waiting for this to happen...


Eddie Lacy spent the offseason getting his body into football shape. Extra poundage might not be the last thing to go.

The Packers running back acknowledged Friday that he's considering a major haircut after a 49ers linebacker pulled him down by the dreadlocks in a 21-10 win over San Francisco.

The hair-pulling tackle came midway through the first quarter after Lacy barreled downfield for a 21-yard gain.

"I'm debating after that," Lacy told the Green Bay Press Gazette. "I don't know how many more of those I'd like to experience. We're in camp. So I've got to wait until I get out of camp, and then I'll assess it."

Said Lacy of his yanked dreads: "It definitely hurts."

Same thing happened to Troy Polamalu in a game against the Chiefs. It was a brutal tackle by Larry Johnson on an interception return. Not sure why any RB would wear dreads.

Dreadlocks on running backs (or even defensive backs) are exercises in stupidity.

I suspect that the NFL will soon say that dreads are a religious expression and make grabbing them illegal.

They ought to be able to develop a helmet with a little extra space on top for players with a lot of hair or really large crania.
