Giants Midnight Replay

This Week In Giants Facial Hair. (#3)

What sets men apart from boys…. besides being able to buy beer? Men can grow facial hair, ok…. men can bring gnarly amounts of hair to the surface of their faces. Let us sit and celebrate, mock, and marvel over the facial hair of your San Francisco Giants. 

Latest & Greatest

What’s going on in this picture? What Ishi is bringing to the table might just be a more molded and extended version of what he had before.

 But to me it is looking more like a facial hair style that has been unofficially banned from the Giants clubhouse……. More specifically THIS ONE:

Yes… I said it… “The Velez” has been officially baned from the clubhouse. Also…. Yes I AM trying to mention Velez in EVERY blog I do. 

Also it looks like Cody Ross is keeping the World Series beard. I see no evidence of him having one before last year.

Best Facial Hair of The Year …. (so far)

I just picked up a copy of this on Saturday…. This mustache makes me weep with joy. Sadly the scum-stash is gone…… hopefully not forever. 

Worst Facial Hair This Year…. (so far)

Hands down Jeremy Affeldt has had and currently has the worst facial hair ever. It straight up reminds me of a vagina.

Please Jeremy…. listen to reason… it looks terrible. Your a decent looking guy, but your ruining it with that landing strip. Stop…. please. 

Look at him during his Reds days… so much better.

There has been a lot of hair sticking out all over the field lately. Sometimes when I’m looking at a player I can see the hair sticking out behind from behind their neck. My hair used to be like that. (no I don’t have pics). I’ve noticed Pippen rocking an inordinate amount of hair lately. Just a huge mane back-flowing out the neck, pretty epic. But if he doesn’t watch out it he could be visited by the mullet fairy one night. 

Newcomer Culberson has been rocking the same hair wad. It’s as if they have an exhaust pipe out the back of their heads and a cloud of brown smoke got petrified on the way out.  

But when you can see a BEARD coming out the sides of a neck from BEHIND. THAT is EPIC. 

Congrats Brian…. your beard has passed the “fully epic” stage.

Random Scruff

Rowand, rocking his boxy scruff, a stupid smirk, his gamer stains. Too bad you can’t see it, cause his head is waaaaay up his ass. 

The only thing about Whiteside’s scruff is that it might be the only part of his hair that is not FULLY grey. It’s a small island of youth still clinging to his chin. 

Pablo….. This looks bad. either go for a beard, a mustache, or nothing. 

Scruff to the future?

40 Giants in 37 days

Onward ho as we try and give a rundown of how each Giant player will do this year and along with weather or not they seem like fun people to hang out with or if they are typical jock lunk-heads. Next up:

Travis Ishikawa

How will he do this year?

You can’t talk about Ishikawa without talking about his defense. But what is everyone really saying when they say “man that guy can pick it”…? If Ishi batted .300 with 20 hrs, would everyone be talking about his “saweet defense”…? Nope. I was an Ishi supporter when it came to getting playing time. We should have let him (not Dan ortimeier) develop at 1st two years ago. Oh well looks like he is bench bound this year, unless Huff really stinks up the joint.

Do I like the guy?

I’m kinda “Meh” about him. He’s reminds me of that brother in law that you try to get along with but really have nothing in common with. You end up talking about something you have no interest in like college basketball or cars, but you would never call him up to hang out, and your relieved when they move to Utah.

Would I hang out with him?

Not unless there is a thanksgiving dinner to eat.

Will he be an essential part of the 2010 Giants?

I can see him getting some important ABs late in games when Uribe has already been used. Also let’s not forget that “saweet defense” that he can contribute late when we are up by 2 or 3.
