The disctinction between sports and other forms of entertainment, is that sporting events are win or lose, victory or defeat, triumph or deficiency. Entertainment, on the other hand, is more about the process than the outcome. However, sports and entertainment, to many, are one in the same - the act of being a spectator to any form of sporting event or movie, concert, book, is entertaining. What makes these pasttimes entertaining is the characters involved. Thus, in professional sports, we often see athletes decorating the event, adding a theatrical flourish, carrying it beyond the usual win or lose scenario. They do this by showcasing some of their personality, be it through winning-play-celebrations, or unique hairstyles.
In the case of unique hairstyles, we have the Warrior's Stephen Curry new hairstyle- the NBA star traded his regular short, neat style for twists. Highly unusual for the family man, this new hairstyle brought the Twitter comedians out. "But why does steph currys hair look like a honey baked ham" writes one user, "This man Steph Curry done went and dreaded his hair lmaoooooo", wrote another.
Jacoby, of the Jalen & Jacoby podcast show on ESPN Radio, made some comments Friday regarding the new hairstyle. "I'm not sure we're ready for one of the best scorers in basketball to have hair like this," Jacoby critiques, while showing a photoshopped image of Curry with long dreads. "I'm not mad at it either way," Jalen defends Curry.
