Over thinking, over analyzing, separates the body from the mind.

I had a dream last night that I went to the barber and got extensions so I had dirty hippie white boy dreads.

I call those guys "Pretador" all the time. If you've seen the Schwarzenegger movie, you'll know what I'm talking about. "You're one ugly mother****er." Of course, some people may call me a racist here because I just referred to them as "those guys," so you can't really win. But they ARE "those guys," who else would they be? Just identifying a particular demographic...you can also refer to great people as "those guys" or "those people."
Disliking a hairstyle does not a racist make. Funny how there should be a question about that, but there is to lots of people. Like it's an issue that needs to be tiptoed around.
True story. I was talking to a black woman at the bar in a casino this past Christmastime...I'm certain she was a prostitute (and not because she was black), but hey, I try not to discriminate. Anyway, I'm talking to her, and somehow the subject of hair came up...perhaps I complimented her on her hair or something. Don't remember...and no, I wasn't gonna be her john or anything like that. I wasn't. So I say "the thing about black people's hair is..." and she says "shhhh," trying to stop me. There were other black people around. Like the subject is off-limits somehow. Somebody might be offended. But it's just hair for crying out loud. I don't think you have to be a scientist or barber to be allowed to talk about it.
Anyway, I went ahead anyway and explained about how black people (especially guys) have limited options in hairstyle choices. They got the natural 'fro going on. They can either go with the 'fro, shave it down, braid it, or go full-out dread. I didn't feel like I was lyin'. Of course, black women can straighten out their hair...I kinda like that. Men pretty much can't do that without looking foolish, in my opinion anyway (unless they go ponytail and can pull that off). That's it. Nobody got offended, and I wasn't lynched.
I don't really care about anybody's hair. I just laughed when that guy got tackled by his hair, so in that sense I'm glad he was a Predator.

I always liked it when some black guys had the big Fros in high school. I could always borrow a pen. Most of them used it for storage.
I'm racist too because I'm hoping for someone to tackle someone by grabbing the beard of those who grow it out like Fitz
Big beards look stupid too...
You know, Shiva, after watching the Dallas game today, I think you're not guilty on the racism charge. The two white receivers, Cooper for Philly and Cole Beasley for the 'Girls, looked every bit as ridiculous with their 1970s rock band mullets as the black guys with dreads do.

Starting a thread complaining about guys having long hair is as old farty as it gets. Race has nothing to do with it as there are lots of white guys out there with long hair as well. Enjoy your turkey and football friends.
Bingo. Saw and thought the same thing. Riley Cooper should put an end to the question.

Uh, did your lips get tired before you reached the bolded part of the OP?
When I was a kid, one of the things that was most cool about football was the uniforms, and how they transformed ordinary human beings into something that looked superheroic and not quite human. With the pads that made your shoulders look five feet wide and the helmets with the cages and the shoes with the spikes, it was more than just a collection of players on the field, it was a group of future-warriors.
Having long hair hanging out of your helmet destroys that illusion and just makes the game more egotistical, like "I may be making millions of dollars but growing these dreads and having them hang down to my ass is just a shout out to my Nubian warrior/Viking berserker/South seas cannibal heritage!"
I hate it.
