The Super Bowl Hair Show Troy Polamalu vs Clay Matthews

It seems hair is the main subject early in this Super Bowl as Troy Polamalu and Clay Matthews have plenty of it. Polamalu hair is sponsored, and reportedly insured for $1 million, by Head & Shoulders. Matthews for his part has signed a one-year deal with Unilever’s Suave brand. The deal includes media appearances before and after the Super Bowl and a production day should the company want to film a commercial with him. All of this from their hair, but luckily for both players they have much more going for themselves.

Both attended USC and both are All-Pros on defense for their respective teams and each one can have a big impact on this years Super Bowl. Many people may talk about their hair, but the truth is both are excellent football players. In fact they may be two of the best defensive players in the NFL. Each one brings a special talent to the table and that includes a great set of hair. No matter who wins the Super Bowl the one thing that is for sure we have never had hair talk before.

Troy Polamalu Thinks NFL Becoming Like Touch Football



With the recent rules that the NFL has implemented it seems fines are on the rise for stupid things and Troy Polamalu of the Pittsburgh Steelers are not at all happy with it. The NFL in his mind has become nothing more than a glorified touch football league and in certain instances I tend to agree with him. Guys that played many years ago would never be able to play in this new NFL that players play in right now.

It seems you have to watch how you hit a player or a fine could come. This is something that Troy Polamalu is not a fan of. When you force players to be scared to hit someone hard because he will get fine than that is a problem. I say let them play as getting hit is part of the game. Yes, fine people who go over the edge, but do not fine everyone because some of these fines are not justified.
