What’s the deal with Andrew Miller’s hair?

Appearance aside, reliever looks strong for Sox

FORT MYERS, Fla. — It was a question that had to be asked of Red Sox relief pitcher Andrew Miller. What’s with all the hair?

The lefthander looks like a cleaner — and taller — version of the character Tom Hanks played in the film “Castaway.” Miller has shoulder-length hair and a bushy beard that hasn’t seen scissors in many months.

what?  all Red Sox players have to look like they had lice ?

Are you trying to say that everyone with shoulder length hair have lice? Would that included

women as well as men? I will admit that women don't look good with tobacco juice in their

beards. But if that is what they prefer who am I to complain?

Note to Andrew Miller.......If your wife doesn't like it cut it. The rest of us really don't matter.
