NFL Draft Blast from the Past

While searching through a feature on the biggest NFL draft busts, Sportshair founding member One T discovered Brian Bosworth. His hair was legendary at the time, as it was a full on display of "attitude" rarely seen then.

Wily Mo Peña- ticker tape blasts and ticker tape hair

He has added GOLD highlights to his hair. Much like the frosted tips once sported by Bret Boone, it makes him look like the Queer eye guys got to him a little too much. No one has descended from Sportshair MVP to ghetto as fast as he did when he unveiled this new color:
