    I believe it's Brett "the Diesel" Keisel from the Pittsburgh Steelers that I remember that grows his beard out every year as long as his team doesn't lose 2 games in a row. I've been thinking about adopting that idea and growing a beard out as long as the Dolphins don't lose two games in a row. So I have one question. Who's with me?

    I've already got about a one month beard going on now, but if anyone is willing to join me and wants me to even the playing field I will shave and start over.

    Mod's, I wasn't sure if this kind of a thread belonged here or in the Lounge, so please move it if it's in the wrong place. I just thought it would be a fun thing to do as fans of this great team. The way we've been playing, we might be looking like those Duck Dynasty guys.

    I'm out. Can't grow any real facial hair. If I don't shave for two weeks, I look like a college freshman who's trying to look older and cool and failing miserably :sigh:

    Sure, I already have some going. Thread is worthless without beard pictures though.

    Does it count if I skip manscaping?

    I've already had one for 45 years... so that would exclude me!

    RevRick, you can be in as long as you agree to shave if we lose two games in a row.

    i agree Alex. i will post a pic of mine sometime today. unless the majority of participants want a clean shave to start with i will assume that everyone will be cool with existing beards entering the challenge.

    Why can't I upload a picture? I've tried it on chrome and internet explorer. I can choose the file from my computer then I click on the upload file button, it acts like its uploading at the bottom left of my screen but then the little screen goes away and there is no picture in this text box.

    So if we lose two in a row do we shave and start over?

    This sounds a lot better than when I refused to shave until the Dolphins won a game back in 2007. Count me in. I can just chalk it up to "No shave November."

    I don't think that would be wise.. No one I know, save my wife, would recognize me... including most of my congregation. How about I just stop trimming unless we lose two in a row.

    PS. I hope to look like Santa Claus by the end of December!

    Haha yes. Nice beard. I used to have a super thick one about a year ago until I shaved for a girl I liked. Sad day.

    There's no need to get strict with this friendly challenge. Me personally, i am going to trim mine as long as don't effect the length of it. whatever gets anyone to participate in some form or fashion is fine by me. I wanna see some before and after pics as well as occaisonal beard progress pics.

    I'd love to do this as I can grow a mean beard, but after a month, it gets too itchy. I let one grow for six weeks or so and just could not stand it.

    For the "manscaping" poster: I am in on the scrotum beard challenge, but I would rather take your word for it than see pics. haha

    I like the Beard Tanne is starting to grow. He needs to get it fuller. Yes, pics upload doesn't seem to be working. I use this site to upload from my computer then it will just copy the link it gives you and paste it here and it will post as a .jpg image.

    Thanks, I will try that out today. After beating the Bills this thread deserves a beard progress report. I still haven't seen anyone's beards yet.

    Sorry they all came out sideways, I have no idea how to fix that. The pics are all upright when I saved them on my desktop.

    Ahhhh.... to grow a beard that isn't mostly grey. I'd look like Santa Claus if I tried that nowadays.

    A long time ago in either High School or Middle School, I remember picking a book from the school library to do a report on, it was called "Hi my name is Davie, I'm an alcoholic". haha. You should read it. I'm an alcoholic on the weekends, specially on game day.

    Joseph, I went by Joey when I was younger, but I prefer Joseph. I made the switch when I realized that Joey means baby kangaroo and Joseph means God will provide.

    We are guaranteed to go at least 1-1 during these next 2 tough games because the the beard is working. There's no reason we can't go 2-0 though, all I know is the beard will prevent 0-2.

    Ryan Tannehill's beard is actually coming in very nicely. I've had a beard since October 2013, I just keep it neat.
