There's just something about the almost-beard . . . it's kinda like the guy got stuck somewhere in between "Hey, Mom, I hit puberty!" and "Sorry, the DTs make it too dangerous to hold a razor." That goes for Blitzer, too.

Cut me some slack, I'm in my dotage.

1. Am with you on this

Thought the fad would go away, but the unkempt look seems here to stay.

Even though it is the trademark look of the main entertainer tonight, to me it smacks of disrespect.

7. Am too! Am too!

I dunno, it just takes me back to my bartending days. Guys would pass out on the bar, we'd drag them out to their cars so we could close, they'd be back the next day as soon as they came to. Not only did they look hideous, they were downright stinky. One conjures the other, I guess.

4. I blame it on Don Johnson.

And, I too, wish this fad would fade.

5. I agree. And add the "bedhead" look, too.

Disrespectful.

6. Blitzer Is Just Jealous Of Rick Perry's Glasses, Along With His Intellect. n/t

This guy's beard just gave up a 3 run homerun. It looked like it was bothering his pitching delivery
