Big Ben at his presser.

Sometimes you really can judge a book by it’s cover.

Epically bad hair says one of two things about someone.  The first is that the person’s ego is so out of control, they don’t care what other people think about their appearance.  Ever.  Rules never apply to them.  The second is that they’re so disconnected with reality that they can’t even see how awful they look.  Nor do they have someone in their inner circle that could tell them they look like a tool.

Both scenarios don’t make for good decision makers.

Roethlisberger won’t face any charges for this second accusal of sexual assault, but he has been suspended for four to six games by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.  Why?  For basically acting like his hair looks.  Like a piece of sh*t.

Is the bad hair = bad guy an infallible rule?  Of course not.  But see the examples below and try and tell me that the way a guy chooses to wear his hair, can’t sometimes raise a red flag.

Rod Blagojevich – Former IL Governor  (Removed from office, half a dozen federal charges)

The mop. What's it hiding Rod?

Sorry Illinois residents… I wouldn’t buy a used car from a guy that looks like this.  And he was your Governor?

Dov Charney – American Apparel CEO (legendary creep/accused sexual harasser)

The tees might be nice, but he's not.

Founded huge T-shirt / apparel company based in LA.  Looks as skeezy as possible.
.

John Edwards – Almost Vice President (cheater, love child maker, Nat. Enquirer Prey)

About as bad as a guy gets, who put on the opposite face in public life.  Good riddance..

Jared Allen – NFL Pro-Bowler (3 DUIs, Violated Substance Abuse Policy, Dirty.)

Actual J. Allen Quote: "The Mullet isn't just a hair do. It's definitely a lifestyle."

Despite Talents Allen was shipped off to I-AA Idaho State (Hello to all our readers in Pocatello) because of his inability to stay out of trouble.  Continued to find trouble in the NFL with DUIs a plenty in Kansas City.  Plus, from his personal website, jaredallen69inc.com:  “When the six-foot-six, 260-pounder is not hunting quarterbacks from the defensive line, or adhering to a rigorous training regiment in the off-season, the 26-year-old can be found with a hearty smile atop a puffed lip full of Red Man chew, hunting rifle in hand, combing the world for his next adventurous conquest.” Sounds like someone is overcompensating a bit…

Peter Orszag – OMB Director.  (Impregnator.  Leaver.  Shackin’ up with ABC Hottie-er)

Smirk all you want Peter, but what died on your head?

This guy has serious power.  He was the director of the Congressional Budget Office, and for now he’s the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.  All those smarts and he still can’t figure out how not to knock up his girlfriend.  Three months into her pregnancy he leaves her for eventual Fiancee and ABC Financial Corespondent Bianna Golodryga.  AKA, Maria Menounos Lite.  Mr. Orzag could have the worst hair in Washington DC.  And that… is saying a lot.

Agree?  Disagree?  Can you really judge someone on their hair to that extent?  Leave your comments below.
