FEAR THE BEARD

The perfect metaphor for the 2013 Red Sox is staring us right in the face.

You’ll just have to trust that there’s actually a face under there, because nothing symbolizes this group of veteran overachievers better than the thickets where their cheeks, chins and necks used to be.

If 2003 gave us “Cowboy Up” and 2004 the “Idiots,” then 2013 has taught the rest of baseball to “Fear the Beard.”
Like the hair on their faces, the Red Sox have grown stronger, closer, and more remarkable by the day. That they’ve rallied around their beards perfectly suits their identity as a team full of veteran grinders who play — and win — without a hint of vanity.

“It fits us because we’re representing a blue collar approach,” catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia said. “We’re a bunch of guys who go to work and do the best we can. We’re not clean shaven and we want to get our hands dirty.”
