Your 2007 Reds Pitching Staff: Return of the Hippies

Seriously - did I miss a fad when long hair suddenly became en vogue?

Homer Bailey

Gary Majewski

Paul Wilson

Eric Milton

Bronson Arroyo

Not that I really truly care how they players crop their dew - I just find it amusing and odd on some level. It's like the bizarro world Marge Schott era Reds.

I promise this will be the last time I talk all season about players grooming. Well - hopefully the last time. Unless others have a drastic need to be made fun of. Then the deal is off.

And the sign said..
Long-haired freaky people need not apply
So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat I said imagine that, huh, me working for you
Can I get a hooha?

hair
Gimme a head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming,Streaming,flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longerHere baby, there mama
Everywhere daddy daddy
Hair, hair, hair, hair,
hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it

I like the long hair
It takes the attention away from those ugly-ass hats.

Hats are hideous...
but I kind of like the new BP jerseys.

Long hair
Is it meant to distract the batter as it flies around during delivery?

Chuckle.
I did have a chuckle when I saw Wilson with his locks. He always had short hair before, right? He was always injured so I can't remember. Hey, good luck to PW this year.

If Paul Wilson gets a roster spot...
And Homer Bailey is in Louisville, I may have to start a boycot of the Cincinnati Reds!
Oh, well you know what, I found the card, actually, they're from your mom, so tell your gay mom I said thanks!

1st Picks.
If Wilson and Hamilton could somehow make it, we would have 3 first draft picks on the team.

First overall picks
Anyone know what Brien Taylor is up to?
Can I get a hooha?

Don't forget Matty
You do mean 1st overall right?

Ben McDonald & Matt Anderson are no doubt available. Matt Bush could probably be had for a song.

Let's get on that pronto.

Big Hair summer
I figured out the GABP concert, finally.  

Tesla/Queensryche/Motley Crue

I'm pretty sure those four would attend. (And I think those bands are each still touring.)

And I listen, to the voice inside my head...nothing, I'll do this one myself. "State of Love and Trust"

My hair is by no means "short"
and all of those guys, save probably Milton, have hair longer than mine.

Sidenote: We've got photos of Milton, Wilson, and Arroyo throwing pitches. What's Maj doing? Not throwing pitches. Imagine that.
