In one of the most stunning decisions in U.S. soccer history, Kyle Beckerman has cut off his dreadlocks.
Having grown out his hair since 2005, the United States and MLS midfielder showed up at his exit physical at Real Salt Lake on Wednesday sporting a new look.
The dreads were gone (all but one, curiously) and Beckerman said he had made the change the day after RSL's final game of the season last month.

"My wife and I started snipping some on Monday after the game, and just kept going," Beckerman said.
