Giants Training Camp: What Should Eli Manning Do About His Hair?
Enough with the serious football stuff, at least for a little while. Eli Manning has a problem, and we need to help him out.
In the wake of Monday's ugly bloodletting, Eli has apparently had to partially shave his head and now the poor man hasn't the slightest idea what to do about his hair.
Post your ideas -- and photographic examples if you are so inclined -- in the comments.
Maybe I will forward your best suggestions over to the Giants. Gotta help the franchise QB any way we can, you know.
By the way, it will be back to serious stuff when I head over to Giants Training Camp at the University at Albany later today.

Reverse Mohawk
We didn't even have a chance for the "perfect season", but we did have the perfect ending.
?
And he was starting to rock the Ole Miss frat boy hairdo again this season, too. If it had just been a little bit lower, the flop of hair would’ve hidden the whole thing.
As long as he doesn’t end up with a Tim Tebow, aka Friar Tuck look, I don’t care. :)
Flat top
A 50’s style flat top would be great. Bring back the Johnny U. look!!
Johnny Unitas
Now there’s a haircut you can set your watch to!

I second the Tim Tebow dew. If he does it right, it can look like a crown of thorns on top of his head with that little 3 in. stitched up gash right below.
He’ll look like the Messiah.
You guys are killing me
Can’t believe no one has taken the Photoshop challenge yet. Get something good and I’ll send it to SI.com’s ‘Extra Mustard.’
Trust me
I’d be all over this if I could sneak Photoshop onto my work laptop…

Be like me..just start losing it...
My hair only grows as far as my ears these days..it never reaches the top..it is a bitch when they work longer on your ears than they do on your head when you go for a haircut..

The cul-de-sac...
I think its a great idea. Just shave off the top, leave the sides like a balding man… (aka Jeff Garcia) The “cul de sac” is a great look.
Go Big Blue!
This is such a bad ass photo

I say just leave it all covered in blood. No one would ever doubt his toughness again

Man, Eli. Seriously...Wow
That is one hell of a picture. I’m still amazed he’d even think to stand up and then jog over to the trainers with that much blood pouring out. Lay down, take it easy. LOL. Freaking heart of a warrior. Humble quiet kid, but HUGE balls.

Not exactly as iconic
As the Y.A. Tittle photo, but I’ll never knock his toughness. He’s already played with a roughed up shoulder during our Super Bowl year and he played through plantar fasciitis.
That is a great photo
After what that guy went thru last season..I doubt anyone could question how tough he is..He just non-chalantly waved for a trainer..that man is tough as nails
"When I was a boy and had no sense I got my pecker stuck in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair and tickled my balls, and made me shit in my overalls"
Honestly Ed
I think the problem is that photoediting prowess doesn’t coincide with football fan-dom.
I know it's only 1 pre season game
but Sorgi and Bomar really are making a case to make the team….
I think 3 QBs could be in the cards this year…..(but of course you all know that already)
I say just give him teh number 2 guard on the clippers
"they try to do what he do, and been where he's been, but they get folded in two.....he's the dude"
An MMA style close shave
Just a little stubble. Maybe get a little ink up there next to the scar as a memento. “J-E-T-S S-U-C-K” perhaps.
The problem is unless he gets popped in the mouth as well, he’ll always have that goofy “Aw schucks” smile, which will completely offset any attempt to look bad ass.

We still don't want Phillip Rivers
So I hope Eli doesn’t go for the ‘American History X’ buzz cut that Rivers was sporting during during the rookie/QB portion of training camp.
Leave it the way that it is and call it the:
“battle scar”

Buy 1 hat...
become a drama queen and retire every year before making 1 final come back.. this way you avoid any more collisions with BJ in preseason but are ready for the regular season… In 10 years you will be as hated as this guy and your hat can look like this hahaha

lol this is from Mike Garafolo of the star ledger
guess eli read my post and it has begun

2. The Mohawk
3. The Mullet
4. The Friar Tebow
5. The Peyton
6. The Big Blue Viewer (bald.)
I vote Mullet!
I left my swagger in my other pants.
Here you go! a few minutes on photoshop - just uploaded it...ELI MULLET

Which hairdo looks best with a Citizen Eco-Drive watch?

I was gonna through something serious out there
But I just saw a guy on TV w/ the Chinese monk look (or whatever), completely bald, but w/ a long braided pony tail. So, have at it, Eli.
You guys are too funny!!!..lol

I prefer George's style combined with mine...
Dreadlocks dangling from the ears and nose with a shaved head…talk about scary..
