What is with the current fad of major league baseball players displaying full beards and their sycophant fans exhibiting the same? In today’s political climate, the only individuals I see sporting that facial hair are the Islamic extremists such as ISIS who are killing people throughout the world. Is this their attempt to identify with that religion and somehow send a message that they are badasses?
I’m sorry but I just don’t get it………..I have no problem with men and properly trimmed beards but these players are going to the extreme. With that being said, there should be a dress code in the MLB that requires all players to not only dress appropriately but restrict the hair length and facial hair.
It is a masculine response by OUR young men to the rest of the world... I have no problem with it.

I don’t like the beards.
The only reason I brought it up is because I see more and more white and black males in my area who are wearing them. And this is in an area of Michigan that is rife with muslims.........
So that's my concern.
That's exactly what I'm seeing.......thank you
:grin: My favorite pitchers have almost always had mustaches. (after I posted, I thought about all the really good players over the years who’ve had beards. More than just a few. Not ZZ Top type beards, but beards none the less.)
