What a coincidence. I'm a Cardinal fan too, as of a couple days ago. Same day I shaved out of anger.

Signed,

A Tiger fan.

As a woman I must admit I am thankful that I don't have as much facial hair as you guys do. :-D However, I gotta admit my face would be a whole lot warmer in the winter if I could grow a coat.

Signed,

A Cardinal AND Red Sox fan if you can believe that. What are the odds?

The best beards are grown by hockey players during Stanley Cup playoff time, probably because they have so much time to do so during the playoffs. I grow mine every year then, too, as long as the Red Wings are in the playoffs. Oh, by the way, sorry Patrick that we spoiled your coaching debut.

I hate having a beard in the winter!! I can't stand the feeling of wet/frozen mustache on the face. :cry:

I'm a year-round beard farmer. The winter-time beardaclava benefits are well known, but most people don't realize that a good beard also keeps the sun and heat off your face in the summer too. It helps big time working as a wildland firefighter when you're trying to dig line right next to hot flames.

Remember kids.....Take care of your beard, and your beard will take care of you.

When I bite into a York Peppermint Pattie, I get the sensation of eating candy atop Mount Shavano.
I'm horrible with names...
But will never forget a mountain's face!
