    Good old Troy Pullmyhairdo. He better be more concerned with his knees. He covers up a lot of bad CB play back there. (When he's in the game)

    He has a head of hair that is for sure. I don't think he would have to worry about a concussion with that cushion up there.

    When his first H&S commercial came on, I was in the other room, and was listening to the TV. I thought at first it was Weird Al, then I went in and watched the commercial. I was struck at how much Polamalu and Weird Al look and sound alike.

    I'm sure Troy is. It's not Troy that has the policy, it's Head and Shoulders. Troy does the commercials to benefit his charities.

    I know that. Just stating the obvious, I guess. I'm sure the team doesn't care how long his hair is.

    Not a bad thing IMHO, this provides some fun to "The No Fun League"

    I'm sure Troy is aware of his knees and other body parts to have a healthy 2010 season

    “It’s like J.Lo’s insured butt!” he jokes, comparing the famous urban legend surrounding the singer’s derriere to learning about his own very real insurance policy.

    Eat your heart out, Samson: Troy's hair worth $1M
    Wednesday, September 01, 2010
    By Maria Sciullo, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

    Bob Riha Jr.
    Troy Polamalu in the shampoo ad: The hair is a wig, but the smile is real.


    His hair has its own website, so is it any wonder Troy Polamalu's long, flowing tresses are now insured by Lloyd's of London?
    The Head & Shoulders shampoo spokesman/Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro safety will be protected from on-the-field follicle disaster to the tune of $1 million this season. Parent company Procter & Gamble announced Monday it was sporting the bill.
    "The policy itself, unlike most insurance policies, is not necessarily as boring as you might think," said Jonathan Thomas, accident and health underwriter for the Watkins Syndicate at Lloyd's........................

    .................................Because in Steelers Nation, where there is no such thing as too much information, here are a few of the policy's minute details.
    • The defensive star would have to lose at least 60 percent of his hair to be compensated. Granted, he has a lot of hair to begin with -- reports indicate Mr. Polamalu hasn't had a haircut in more than seven years -- but that still would be a pretty major makeover.
    • Mr. Polamalu's hair is insured against on-field events only.
    • Hair loss or damage cannot be from natural causes. Hair torn out or being set on fire? Yes, of course one wonders how that might occur on the field. If his hair falls out because of alopecia or male pattern baldness, "no," Mr. Thomas said.
    That grab-the-hair tackle by Kansas City's Larry Johnson after an interception in 2006? Yes, that would be covered.


    The whole hair affair is part of Head & Shoulders' ad campaign that kicked off earlier this week. The first of three television spots that will run during national sports, entertainment and comedy programming, was broadcast Monday, and www.troyshair.com is a veritable "Polamalooza" of games, interactive features and contests geared toward a young, male market.

    In one of the goofiest features, "You can upload your picture and surround yourself with Troy's hair," he said.

    "Besides having that iconic hair, Troy is a wonderful and genuine person," said April Anslinger, North American Head & Shoulders brand manager,
    Troy is being a great sport about all this nonsense. It must mean a ton of money for his causes.

    Troy raising money for charity and spoofing himself. Good.

    Ochostinko constant self promotions for attention and purposely breaking NFL rules. Apples and oranges.
