The mustache world's red carpet weekend

Polls at the American Mustache Institute are still open to determine who has the Greatest Sports Mustache of All-Time. It's part of the St. Louis-based organization's 'Stache Bash event in the Gateway City August 4th. Retired Cardinal Al Hrabosky, Rollie Fingers, and the late Dale Earnhardt are among the finalists.

Are you concerned that former firstbaseman Keith Hernandez isn't a finalist? Rest easy. A write-in campaign for "Mex" is afoot. But isn't his advertising endorsement of "Just For Men" the competitive equivalent of injecting steroids?
