Moustache enhancing drugs ... classic and how does Rollie Fingers not top this list?

Wow. Adam Morrison is an interesting looking fellow.

It should have been Rollie Fingers. The greased-up handle bar mustache? Classic.

Morgan Gardner Bulkeley... DENIED! It's a sham.

I don't know how anyone could possibly decide. They're all fucking fantastic. But guys like Rollie Fingers and Al "The Mad Hungarian" (fer crissakes) Hrabosky have unfair advantages. I mean, look at those names. They scream mustache. It's unfair I tells, ya. And, of course, Keith Hernandez has the runaway ace in the hole by asking Jerry to help him move. But really, the point is mustaches are fantastic. It's easily the most masculine thing a man can wear. Gives them strength. Strength we non-mustache wearers don't understand but can sense by simply looking at the mustache. Non-mustache wearers are a little scared of the mustache wearer, though. Because you know in the back of your mind that the this guy could be dangerous. Mustache guys look like the just don't give a shit what they look like coming out of fight.... Except John Watters. I occassionally picture cops having a moment before rushing into a dangerous situation - and of course they all have those cop-staches - and quietly (or loudly) saying "Mustache Power... Activate!" And then boom - through the door and just going to town. Hrabosky, for sure, could activate his mustache power.

And if he did, it would have cut your throat from ear to ear just for mentioning it in public. Hrabosky did have the power, though. He got a full 3 MPH on his fastball, just from the 'stache.

Greg Maddux doesn't have a mustache yeah, but he used to have one. he just looked too damn dangerous with it though. his potential victims would scurry away before he had a chance to pounce. so he had to turn the power down a notch and lose the 'stache.

That picture of Maddux was from his youth, obviously. It is well known that he was a member of the Yakuza during his rookie year and it is in this organization that he developed his thirst for blood and honed his killing technique. Many in the Japanese freedom underground have died to bring this information to light.

THX, Did you know that the Japanese phrase "you're welcome" roughly sounds like "Don't touch my mustache"?
