The Cardinals Facial Hair

[Careless]

Ok, Cards fans, what's going on down there?

[E.J.]

It's awful. I don't understand it. Carp's looks like he glued a rat pelt onto his lip.

[Cynosure]

Wonder what angry Cards fan would have to say about it...

[Vanilla Ice]

They all look awful

They're dirty as hell but I think it's hilarious.

 

The River Cats did it at the end of last year through the whole playoffs (won the whole thing) and Cal State Fullerton did it for the College World Series this year (lost both games).

 

Hopefully the Cardinals go the way of Fullerton.

:-)) :-)) :-)) OK, here's the deal: One of the relievers grew his and had a good outing, so the other relievers being young, superstitious guys did it too....then Carp reluctantly went along to be a good teamate.

 

Then Shumacker grew one. The pornstache cannot be stopped...you can only hope to contain it! :-&

the shumacker one is hideous

[treebird]

they're all horrible.

 

i, for one, am shocked that a white trash facial hair growing competition has taken root in st louis, of all places.

[Maclowery]

Wellemeyer had a really ugly mustache today. Pineiro looks greasy with his. Thompson hasn't reached puberty yet.

 

LaRue briefly shaved his badass stache, but luckily has grown it back.

Thompson's inability to grow one was funny enough that it brought a positive to otherwise awful trend.

[Roast]

Yeah, those things are godawful. Though, LaRue's is probably the best thing ever.

The American Mustache Institute has taken notice:

growing ironic moustaches was funny when you were like 18.

 

also, there is a 0% chance that ryan franklin isn't an absolute gigantic douche with a beard like that. 0%.

[reggiemiller rules]

Kinney's looks like he should be a general during the civil war.

No it wasn't.

[Faceman]

Randy Wells has a goatee, not as a joke. White trash.

[mjohnson71]

I understand playoff beards. But mid-season mustaches are stupid.

No it wasn't.

 

what about failed attempts at 22? those are okay, right?

god i hope so

[str8carter]

Well, the Cards are playing a little better ball since the trend started. Maybe the Cubs should use this ASB to start on ZZ Top beards! :grin:

[wolf stansson]

Colby Rasmus is easily the saddest.

[ManEatingTarp]

We're talking about a sport that kept the Goatee trend alive (and to this day) for well over a decade.

 

Bad facial hair and baseball go together like peanut butter and jelly.

He's from Belleville.
