10 Greatest Haircuts in Sports

badhair1

Sports gives us so much. Competition. Camaraderie. Gambling. Drama. Triumph. Tragedy. Inspiration. Desperation.

But more than any of that sports gives us haircuts. Bad haircuts. In all sports.

In no particular order, some of the worst haircuts in sports history.

Pete Rose: Monchichi style

pete-rose22

Rose should not only be in the Hall of Fame for his baseball achievements, but he should have his own wing to commemorate all of his haircuts. The man is in his 60’s and hasn’t had one decent haircut in all of that time.

He has dabbled in the Prince Valiant, the mullet, the crew cut and the bowl; each one worse than the one before it.

Kirk Hinrich: Ax cut

Hinrich

You play in the NBA, maybe you could use something a little more precise than a lawnmower to trim your hair. If nothing else, run that thing down to Sears before your next trim and have them sharpen the blades.

Keith Van Horn: Opie Taylor

You have to admit, it was nice of Van Horn to let his mom comb his hair before the photo shoot. This is the ‘anti-Hinrich’ cut. Looks like he used a laser to carve those bangs. If you look closely, you can see the chalk-line the barber snapped across his forehead to keep everything straight.

Dirk Nowitski: Hair gone wild

nok

He’s from Germany and likes David Hasselhoff; he doesn’t know any better.

Steve Garvey: Bulletproof lettuce

I wonder if he stiffed the barber after he put on that 14th layer of Minwax? That picture may be 3 decades old, but Garvey still works the same cut. Brave.

John Daly: Just a little off the sides...

Points for cutting it yourself, I guess. Daly might be the only one who could give Rose a run for him money for ‘worst hair ever’. Long, dirty, short, greasy. He has all the shots.

Vinny Del Negro: The 1978

Who says the center part is dead? Not Vinny Del Negro. He found what worked for him and ran with it... for 30 years. Easy ladies, he’s taken.

Eric Karros: The Frankie Avalon

Try your hardest not to be distracted by Kenny Albert’s grill and focus on Karros’s hair. He looks like a 1950’s crooner more than a baseball player turned announcer. If Karros ever goes out in high winds, he will tip over... Wind advisory for all trucks, small boats and EK’s mane.

Don Sutton: The Mike Brady

DonSutton2

Try and not be impressed with a Hall of Famer who says, ‘Screw it, just gimmie a perm.’

That wasn’t a ‘1970’s thing’ cut either.

HOFsutton

Jevan Snead: The SEC

In his defense, this is apparently the only cut that conforms with SEC bylaws. How else would you explain its proliferation among both players and fans?

Other suggestions not only accepted, but highly encouraged.

  1. I am in physical pain after reading this. So funny it hurt.

    Lately my favorite is Mark Grace's "First Day of School." No product necessary just a couple licks on Mom's palm and a strong pat down and your ready for the bus stop.

  14. Hey. Very good layout you have here. I'm on the lookout for a different design for my own blog - where did you pick up this design? is it free of charge or paid for? Thank you.

  15. First of all - I hope it does cause MLB some major angst. Their role in all of this is significant. Selig should be forced to step down. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE knew what was going on. And rather than confront it Selig and his merry band of synchophants decided to ignore it. Ignore it as Bonds heads swelled to gargantuan proportions. Clemons is a major league tool and frankly deserves what he's about to get...... :-)
