Mets Beard?

What do you guys say? Are we giving up shaving for this or not? I didn't consider it until after I'd had a good shave last night but I'm up for it if y'all are.

Re: Mets Beard?

I would do it, however there are two overriding considerations:
(1) I want to pass through US customs hassle-free
(2) Every jabroni in this city is wearing one.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Mike Piazza's wife!

I already have a beard. I guess I could pass on trimming mine, but I don't think I'll do that. Instead, I'm just going to walk around singing Meet the Mets at the top of my lungs all day.

Shaving... too much grey in my beard these days for my taste.

I don't know. Beards have not been good luck to the Mets this year.

I have a genetic disposition against facial hair, so I don't think I can contribute much.

Re: Mets Beard?

I think I'll beard up. I don't grow 'em thick or fast enough to look like the jabronis.

I haven't shaved in 9 days anyway, but not sure I want to go another month.

Re: Mets Beard?

Thanks to genetic limitation, I can only really go Metstache. Which, frankly, is more Metly, I think.

Re: Mets Beard?

I began mine on October 1.

I have grown a weak beard between 10/1 and 4/1 the past few years, but this is the first time I will be calling it a "Playoff Beard".

Re: Mets Beard?

I shaved last night, so, technically, I can just stop shaving today and call it a playoff beard. I get a good 3-4 weeks in before Fwife vetoes the beard.

In that thread, I suggested full-body waxing for everyone since the beards failed. I'm not sure if I want to follow up on that.

Yeah that thread is so depressing considering the vibe was we'd be trying some different mojo every year.

You forgot #3:
Playoff beards are stupid.

(Sorry guys, but it's the truth)

Re: Mets Beard?

Back when the WWF was cool (because my friends and I watched it)
one of my buds used to call paid losers jabronis. I never gave it a second
thought and figured he made up a word. Son of a bitch, it's a real word
and means just that in addition to other slang things.

I can't watch the playoffs if my wife won't let me in the house. So no beard.

I tried a finals beard in college. It didn't help my face or my grades.

Re: Mets Beard?

Maybe I'll go the oppo-field route, and cut something, since I need a haircut anyway. Maybe go with something like a Mets 'hawk.

Re: Mets Beard?

She's a facebook friend of mine. I don't think she does.

It's funny, I couldn't remember her name for years and years, then suddenly I realized my next door neighbor's mom's name is the same and it popped into my head.

Re: Mets Beard?

I had to think about her last name (or at least the one she used with
us) until it came to me. You have good security on your fb page, I can
only see our mutual friends. On most of my other fb friend's pages I
can see all their friends.

I have the same beard I had in 2006. Well, a bit more grey.

Re: Mets Beard?

No beard for me. I had one many years ago (my co-workers urged me to cover up as much of my face as possible). But MMYF says she doesn't like me to wear one. So I won't wear one.

Re: Mets Beard?

I have blond hair, but my beard tends to be darker (except for the ever increasing gray) so I will not be growing a beard.

Mets Beard Update: Been shaving regularly but for that little depression below the lip. Coming in thin, grey and ugly as ever.
