Fu Manchu David

Why not? Kinda greasy and sleezy. I like it.

Murphstache!

"I look older with a mustache!"

The friends o’ the Stache and ardent Mets supporters at OhMurph.com — a site we profiled here last week devoted to renaming the fans in the left field stands Murphaholics — sent us a challenge we couldn’t refuse: draw up some images of Daniel Murphy with a mustache. Photoshop expert and ’stache extraordinaire Misopogon got right on the task, and came up with some very studly images of what one New York Mets left fielder would look like with some upper-lip hair. The “promo shot” style stachepic at right is worthy of scoreboard display at Shea, while two additional Murphy stachepics — after the jump — show the Murph in action!

2 and Whoa

Here's hoping Citi Field has a Lipitor vendor.

Well, that was exciting.  Mike Pelfrey looked shaky, then settled down.  The bats looked lively and the heart of the order showed potency that lasted longer than four hours (they should consult their physician) and the bullpen was just good enough to hang on for the 9-7 win over the Cincinnati Reds.

The Carloses went 4 for 9 with four runs scored, six RBI and one HR by the bald one.  As for our non-mustached third baseman, he went 1 for 4 with three runs scored and a walk.  His one hit came in the 7th inning when he appeared to be sporting some late evening stubble, once again supporting our theory that David performs better when he has some facial hair to keep him warm during this chilly Spring games.

It wasn’t the prettiest win but this isn’t a beauty contest.  Which is a plus, because Ramon Castro has no business putting on an evening gown.

Ollie Perez looks to lead the Amazins to a sweep tonight against musician Bronson Arroyo.

Evolution of a Wrightstache

Just add water and watch it grow.

Dear friend o’ the stache Seth Fisher addressed a very important issue in an email to The Wright Stache HQ. One that helps us clear a major hurdle in our quest to get David Wright to grow a mustache.

It’s probably best if I just let Seth explain it himself:

Lord knows every man looks good in a fully grown stache, but perhaps David Wright is afraid of the transition period? Surely, a nascent young stache does not tickle the fancy of the female gender quite like a fully matured lip cover.

Some men, of course, can take the transition better than others.

Using special, high-tech software, however, our laboratories were able to demonstrate that Wright would look good not only with his completed stache, but all the way up.

Take a gander at the image above and observe David in all stages of mustache growth. From infancy to maturity, David looks like a man who owns his look. Confident. Strong. And, dare I say it, sexy as all get out.

So, if you (or David) were concerned about the early aesthetics of a stache on our mighty protaganist, fear not. Now, get on it David!

Studly!

Thanks to Seth F. for sending in his very own artist rendition of David with a Stache! Check it out…

Sort of looks like Norm MacDonald doing a Burt Reynolds impression.

Sexy Stache = Sexy David

See, David? You’d look so studly with a stache. You’d be the greasiest thing to grace the grass in Flushing since Piazza’s barbershop stache hit the field running in ‘98. C’mon David… do it.
