I'm surprised this hasn't been posted (BYH, you're slipping) -- and there are no photos of it that I know of, but Mr. Jay Horwitz, Mets PR major domo, joined his players in SF the other day and got his head shaved. The thought of that boggles my mind but I'd be interested on some other views.

Casty, you know you are wrong. Jay is ugly with hair. Without hair...... damn.

There's no way this thread could have been mistaken about anything else.

This topic was briefly touched on, but it is certainly funny enough to discuss more.

Horwitz shaving his head is just downright goofy!
 
I can't think of a single white man who looks hot with a shaved head. Balding, thinning, it's natural, no problem (everyone is not as lucky as Boom). But the whole shaved thing...ugh. The skin tone never matches the face, the stubble has this weird mold look.

Looks good on black guys, though.

Andre Agassi looks about 100x better with a shaved head than he did with that girly hairdo of the 80s and 90s. I don't think a lot of guys should go with the complete "chrome dome," but the really, really short cut is always better for balding guys.

I was going to mention this, but once I start I'll never stop:
--Long hair on men, ugh. I could never trust a man who hides the back of his neck.
--Shaved white heads, ugh x2.
--Fake hair on men, ugh x 5.
--Dye jobs on men (including highlights, unless you are on TV and it's a career issue), don't even ask.

Good-looking men with prematurely silver hair....sigh. Makes my heart race.

So you're saying there's a chance.

And Casty, I did indeed chip in my two cents on Jay's chrome dome. I'll repost. It does contain several vulgarities, though.

BC-BBN--Mets-Buzz Cuts,0311
Clipper time and team bonding: Mets get haircuts
By JANIE McCAULEY
AP Sports Writer
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)— There was a big buzz going on
in the Mets’ clubhouse Tuesday.<QA>
As in Carlos Beltran cutting hair for some good ol’
fashioned team bonding.<QA>
“I don’t think it was any one guy’s idea,” third baseman
David Wright said, showing off his new extra-short ‘do.
“Just as a team, we thought about it, got clippers and
started doing it. We’re trying to get everyone to do
it.”<QA>
And almost everybody did, save for shortstop Jose Reyes,
relievers Aaron Heilman and Aaron Sele, and pitching coach
Rick Peterson. Manager Willie Randolph closely monitored
the entire operation, his hair already trimmed close to the
head.<QA>

<snip>

Tom Glavine got a special reprieve simply because he was
pitching, though the left-hander said he was in no way
against doing something silly in order to bring players
closer.<QA>
“It’s not part of my pregame ritual,” he said.<QA>
Even team spokesman Jay Horwitz took part.<QA>
A freshly shorn Shawn Green, the Mets’ right fielder,
walked out for batting practice sporting a stunned look —
his dark curly locks completely gone.

For the love of ****. Don't you need to have hair to get it cut?

What a pathetic piece of ****. The players don't like you. They don't respect you. They laugh at you to your face. Imagine being 62 and trying to cozy up to people who wouldn't **** on you if you were on fire.

For crying out ****ing loud.

In unrelated news, the 2003 Boston Red Sox called. they want their schtick back.
 
Someone should give Jay an official SJ tshirt that says, 'I GOT A ****ING HAIRCUT!'

Then what's the Ugh score on ole Hulk Hogan (featured above) who goes completely chrome-domed bald on top with neck-hidingly-long dyed fake-looking hair in the back? Could be another milestone for the Hulkster--sporting the first "do" to hit on all 4 ugh factors.
 
I think the Mets are one of the last organizations on earth that require a faxed request. I asked the kid if they take email.

"Naw, Jay's kind of old school."

That's what I know of the dude. That, and that he has a shaved head.

And 21, I'm prematurely grey. In fact, I fail to manscape, my **** looks like Einstein.

He's a complete piece of **** too. I have little doubt he has no idea at all how to turn on a computer. Or a woman, for that matter.

And by old school, that kid means Jay wishes he could still tell his assistants to bang out the notes on a typewriter.

Einstein died in 1955. I would guess his **** resembles what might have been a cigar left too long in the ashtray, after someone turned the ceiling fan on too high.

I am sorry for your loss.
