And why is it hard for someone to contact someone with their hair in such a way that we would have to use the same logic to call a foul with the ball as we would with hair. That is why I said it was a stretch.

Hair touching OOB is enough for a violation. If contact with hair caused an advantage, call it.

OK, and one has little to do with the other.

Again, find me an interpretation instead of what we like to do on this site, use our own personal feelings to make a ruling.

I have yet to see such an interpretation and considering how often the ball could be used in such a way, I would think this topic is addressed. Hair for a violation like being out of bounds is mentioned and has been mentioned in previous casebooks and NF interpretations.

So don't call it.

I will.

The difference in how we approach it may affect exactly one call throughout both of our careers combined.

Isn't that what we do already?

And I doubt I will see it as described. So it will not be much of an issue in the first place.
