Posts Tagged ‘Epic Facial Hair’

As I was forced to watch the Atlanta feed of the Phillies/Braves Grapefruit League game this evening, the nerve-wracking broadcasting duo of Mike Morgan and Brian Jordan were going on and on about how magnificent Jayson Werth’s Beard is. And while they were busy complimenting Beard — WHAM-O! — practically on cue, Mr. Werth deposited a 1-1 pitch from Kenshin Kawakami over the highly touted head of Jayson Heyward for a 2-run jack.

The greatest interviewer in the business, Dave Brown of Yahoo!’s Big League Stew, spent a little QT with everyone’s favorite bearded rightfielder the other day in Clearwater. The entire interview is classic, but the part that fascinated me was when Dave had the GALL to ask Jayson if he could touch his beard:
Did Dave Brown get to touch the Beard? Find out, only on The Stew.

No matter what happens for the rest of Spring Training, I think it’s safe to say that nothing will have the impact of the Epic Jayson Werth Beard that we saw today. It started off with as a fairly innocent tweet from Todd Zolecki about Jayson’s new facial hair growth, then everyone demanded photographic evidence of said growth, then Zolecki obliged, then the internet blew up. The funny thing is, I’ll bet you Jayson Werth himself thinks we’re a bunch of fairy boys for making such a spectacle of his Beard, and will most likely shave it off tonight out of spite.
Whether he keeps it or not, I really just wanted to take this opportunity to highlight Charlie Manuel’s quote on Jayson Werth’s Beard. The man has such a poetic way of stating the obvious:
“He looks like a guy that didn’t do a whole lot this winter, kinda isolated himself somewhere… and he didn’t have a razor and a barber around.”

If you don’t mind, I’m just gonna keep updating this post throughout the day with each spectacular picture of Jayson Werth’s new beard. Cool? I’ll start if off with the original Todd Zolecki pic, this is the one that’s gonna win all the major photography awards at the end of the year:

A couple days ago David Murphy from High Cheese reported via twitter that Eric Bruntlett and his wife were celebrating the birth of their child. Well with the superconnectivity we have here at The Fightins we were able to obtain the first picture of the baby. Said baby picture can be found ATJ…
