I was reminded that I've mentioned my growing a Bruins Playoff Beard, but that it hasn't really been seen. So I've decided to correct that.
The goatee part is *usually* on my chin, so that's nothing new. It's the fuzz on the cheeks and under the chin that are new. Yeah, there's plenty of grey in the facial hair. My family, in particular my generation, has a history of premature graying. I'm just not full of myself enough to color it. Though I have colored it in the past, when I've colored my hair. In my younger and more wild days. I have not always had Bruins Playoff Beards for a few reasons. 1st, when I was old enough to discover sports I was living in Philadelphia. So my 1st hockey team were the Flyers. 2nd, my father always had a beard. So he never taught me about the tradition of growing a beard until your team was eliminated from the playoffs. Granted, I don't even know that it *was* a tradition back then either. Finally, this is the Bruins we're talking about. This once feared and legendary organization has not been a hot topic in Boston for some time. A win tonight will go a long way to keeping the people of Boston talking about them for some time. Go Bruins! And, of course, Go Red Sox!
