Related Topics: Takk...

So here’s something that happened yesterday—midnight is technically Saturday—that you’ll want to read about. It’s a tale of loss, bewilderment, defeat, and also hair. It is a Takk McKinley story.

It begins with Takk discovering that he left one of his dreadlocks on the field against the Lions, probably in the process of taking down Matthew Stafford for his first NFL sack. At least, for the purposes of this narrative, we’re going to assume so. How did he realize this, you ask?

Because someone was selling said dreadlock on eBay. Of course.
