Since there are award ceremonies or everything, I think there should be Hall of Fames for everything. Hence the FHHOF.... These are guys who were defined by their facial hair or look ridiculous without it, like Tom Selleck without the 'stache... Baseball has been pretty old school in terms of allowing facial hair. So for those who fought the system, here are my first ballot guys

1. Rollie Fingers, no question
2. Bruce Sutter, he was all beard baby
3. Ozzie Smith - Willie McGee was clearly jealous
4. Keith Hernandez. The fact that he does those HORRIBLE Just for Men commercials gets him in. Plus I think he is Tom Selleck 'esk where he would look dumb without it
5. Howard Johnson - Somebody should run splits against his career average with and without the beard
6. Gorman Thomas and Robin Yount, clearly wanted each other based upon their matching Fu-man-chus
7. Don Mattingly for his refusal to cut his hair which pissed off Steinbrenner

The Rejects:
1. Ryan Klesko's Elvis sideburns.... yikes
2. Johnny Damon caveman look
3. Geoff Jenkins' chin goatee with no mustache looks awful
4. Jeff Bagwell the "looks like roadkill on my face" look :thumbdown

Anyone else have favorites?

Love the list so far. Oscar Gamble might be my favorite of all time.

How about Matt Clement? I once saw the Wrigley faithful (including women and children) with pieces of carpet stuck to their chins.

Personally, I love Gary Sheffield's whispy, jazz- musician pencil 'stache.

What about Randy Johnson's soul patch? I think that thing was at least 12" x 12".

Thurman Munson, Goose Gossage, Dick Allen and Bill Lee when he pitched for the Expos.

Eric Gagne just doesn't look dominating without it :| (he could stand to loose the pool goggles though)
