    The question is easy. Are you growing a playoff beard or not? Am I the only crazy, superstitious one here?

    It's not that easy. For example you could be superstitious but not crazy, or vice versa, or both, or neither. I suggest asking only one question.

    The poll question is just whether or not people were still doing them. The crazy/superstitious question was more a hypothetical musing. I know that I am both crazy and superstitious.

    Is it possible to grow a playoff beard if bearded is your normal setting?

    And I'll add I'm not willing to shave completely to start over.

    In that case, I think you have to just let it go without grooming until the championship is secured.

    I have seen people drive themselves crazy with superstitions but that is part of the charm of living in Las Vegas.

    Moot point for you. You can't grow a beard. You're too young,

    If you didn't grow a playoff beard (or keep an existing beard untrimmed) and we don't win The Cup, IT'S YOUR FAULT. Ladies are not fully exempt from this rule, as they may instead choose to not shave their legs which also serves as retaliation for their prickly companions.

    Some men look very good with a facial beard. Some men look better clean shaven. Do you look good with a beard? Are you allowed to have facial hair at work? What does your significant other think? Do you care what you look like? Do you need to attract a mate? I find those questions are more important than silly superstitions. No offense to the very young thread starter.

    Puttputt, you are seasoned individual whom would understand these dated references.

    Young Paul Newman looked better with a beard. Young Robert Redford looked better without a beard.

    Then I have some great movie suggestions for you. I would start with The Sting. Right up your alley. You can thank me later.

    The Sting is a great movie.

    IDK, yes, not a big fan, no, and no.

    It simply comes down to the silly superstitions. I definitely couldn't grow a beard in 2008, but I gutted it out and shaved the moment I got back to the hotel after the match. We definitely wouldn't have won the cup without that abomination on my face.
