Also, as a PSA to help out any lady companions to men who beard, let me say this. If you are going to have a beard of significant depth do the following at least twice a week, and more often if you have the time:

-Shampoo it. Beards can trap a lot of food and other detritus. It can get a little gross if you don't clean it regularly.
-Condition it. Not essential, but it's best if the beard is on the softer side. Conditioner helps with that.
-Oil it. Get some quality beard oil and thoroughly oil it. It will make it much easier to groom and it will look sleek instead of crazy and out of control.

I like you, but you're way, way off on this one. Beards are probably one of the most traditional looks a man can have after a button down shirt. Saggy pants are a modern fad that will not be repeated any time soon.

Neatly trimmed, short beards have never gone out of style. But Civil War beards are definitely a fad. One that people will look back and laugh at in 15 years.

Is that the quibble? Ok then, yes, granted, but crazy civil war beards aren't what I'm talking about. My Tormund example earlier isn't quite that level of crazy, imo.

As a father I'll never let my daughter look back at photos of hunky bearded men from 2012 onwards, for fear of her becoming instantly impregnated.

You must be part of the 1% if your local hobos have neatly trimmed, short beards. I assume they're also wearing off the rack tuxedos instead of custom tailored Italian ones.

Ok, you lost me.

And haven't you heard? All of CP is part of the 1% if you go by their reported income.

Lol @ ppl criticizing beards. Men have had beards since the beginning of time and we are headed back towards that as our culture becomes more and more understanding. Having a groomed beard doesnt mean you're homeless. I'm starting to see beards more and more in the office and it's a great sight. I would quit my job before I shaved my beard.

Im assuming they're gonna be pretty close to team 1 and 2 below. Each team has 13F and 7D so barring an injury there will be a Healthy scratch for both.
