Did anyone see what LJ did to Troy after an INT today?
Troy is running down the sideline (at full speed) and LJ reaches out and grabs a handful of his hair. As you can imagine, Troy went down in a hurry. LJ doesn't let go and yanks him back to his feet. It ripped him down (and on his head) and back up in a hurry.
It had to hurt.
For the record -- your hair is part of your uniform so no penalty. I'd say, either tuck it in or get it cut off.
That's funny considering LJ almost had his neck broken last week by a questionable tackle.
"Guess [Ryan Kerrigan] really does have a good motor. And is relentless. And never quits on a play. And just keeps coming. And probably eats Wheaties and drinks Apple Pie smoothies and shaves with Valvoline." -Dan Steinberg DC Sports Bog
You forgot the part where LJ got up still holding onto Polamalu's hair as if it were a hunting trophy.
"He's a playmaker, that's his label. They used to have strong safeties, but now they got another position: They're called playmakers." -Terence Newman on Roy Williams
Yeah, he got an unsportsmanlike penalty, not for the tackle, but for continuing to drag him back to his feet after the play, out of bounds. That was weak.
