NY Mets shave their head
« on: May 10, 2007, 10:47:47 PM »
According to the NY Post (http://blogs.nypost.com/sports/mets/archives/2007/05/buzz_cuts.html), 21 of the 25 players on the team have shaved their head.

Quote
Twenty-one out of the 25 Mets now have buzzed heads or shaved heads, with Carlos Beltran serving as the main barber in the clubhouse during pregame as most of the players on the club buzzed their heads. Other people affiliated with the team -- hitting coach Rick Down, trainer Ray Ramirez, assistant trainer Mike Herbst, even PR man Jay Honcho -- also shaved their locks.

To the other four  :x!

Quote
The only Mets who hadn't buzzed their heads by pregame were Tom Glavine (who is pitching tonight but who said he'll buzz it eventually), Jose Reyes, Aaron Heilman and Aaron Sele. Reyes and Heilman might do it in pregame, while Sele apparently has some family photos that need to be taken.

If they go on a huge winning streak now, they'll keep 'em buzzed I bet.

Which WOULD be appropriate since anyone who is sly is ALREADY on a winning streak O0

Please don't tell me that we have to start rooting for a New York team.  g@@4 By the way, a cool shaved baseball player is Kevin Mench with the Brewers.  I couldn't find a pic of him without a hat... sorry.
How is that Hopey / Changey thing working for you?

I agree with Andre. When I say my face is shaved it doesn't mean I have a three day growth of stubble.

I never said they're Sly, just that they shaved their heads (albeit with clippers).  If they were the Dodgers, it might be a different story.

No problem bro!  I just realized that my post sounded kinda harsh.  Was supposed to be in more of a joking manner.  :px

I am all for people shaving their heads, but I can't get behind this, simply because it's the Mets.
