| Hoops Rulebook |
Article 47, Paragraph 7:
If a weak link is spotted on the opposing team, or a member of the opposing team has exceedingly long hair, it is entirely lawful to prey upon him. Two large, man-sized pieces of bread should be placed on either the side of the meek player and then the Squishing should commence. Special attention should be focused on the ribs so as to potentially damage the victim's ability to ever fully recover.
(i.e. Ray Fosse 1970 All Star game - although no bread was involved and it was his shoulder that was permanently damaged, they did find this section of the BMTG Hoops Rulebook highlighted in Pete Rose's locker.)
Sidenote: While the state of California has made it unlawful to discriminate against anybody because of religion, race, gender, or sexual preference, they have to date neglected to protect the long hairs.
