I just meant that's a side of being famous I don't want.
I myself am a man with long hair. Which means I wear it in a pony tail at times. I have never met any of my favorite athletes, but I did meet the singer of one of my favorite bands, nonpoint, and I specifically told him " I don't have anything for you to sign. Just wanted to shake your hand. Great show". He and the entire band were cool as hell to all of us there. I've never been one to go gaga over someone's celebrity status. They're still people.
My point in this, is that just because someone has a pony tail or a beard doesn't mean they are automatically a douchebag. If someone acts like an idiot or a jerk, than that's what they are. It has nothing to do with hair. I've never done anything but treat people around me with respect, as long as respect was due them. But through the course of my life I've had plenty of people treat me like garbage, and most of them were short haired. I never assumed their hair length had anything to do with their piss poor attitude.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
