Thank you, Mario! But your dignity is in another castle!Due to all of our traveling, we know we've been pretty inconsistent in our blogging. We're going to get some posts up for the rest of this week, and we should get back to normal next week.
We're going to take a day off from the baseball announcer quotes, and address a different baseball-related issue, as suggested by alert reader/misanthrope Jim Wyrsch. This was an obvious choice for QOTD, given our start as a mustache chronicle...
From the wonderful (St. Louis-based) American Mustache Institute, their official statement on the demise of Jason Giambi's mustache:
"It lived a life most of us would envy. But in the end, Jason Giambi's mustache never really had a chance, and ended up in a bathroom basin, dead after less than a few months of life.
The American Mustache Institute salutes Mr. Giambi and his mustache, for having the bravery to walk proudly down the same lines upon which other great Yankee mustaches have -- including Reggie Jackson, Thurman Munson, Don Mattingly, and Sal Fasano. Our hearts and prayers go out to Mr. Giambi, his family, and the Yankees organization. And while we are all gravely disappointed by the passing of Jason's mustache, no one, or thing, feels a greater loss than his upper lip." (Read the rest of their statement here.
Another icon loses his 'stache.
