Phil Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 #BOOM, baby! It?s the third annual BlueshirtsBrotherhood.com Playoff Beard contest! The hell is a Playoff Beard contest, you ask? The answer, my simple friend, is simple as well! It?s a contest hold here annually at the start of the NHL playoffs where volunteering forum members participate in a contest to grow their beards out for the duration of the NHL playoffs. As the playoff rounds continue to pass, quarter finals, semi finals, finals and Stanley Cup final they?ll be uploading photographic evidence of their progress to share with us along the way. At the end of the playoffs the day after the Cup is hoisted, all the participants will upload their last photo, and each of those photos will then be included in a final poll that you, the users of BlueshirtsBrotherhood.com will vote on to determine the winner of the 2012-13 BlueshirtsBrotherhood.com Playoff Beard contest! http://www.dissensionmedia.com/nyrbb/BSBH_GDT_Spacer.gif http://www.dissensionmedia.com/nyrbb/contest/PlayoffBeard/2011-12/BSBH_PlayoffBeardContest_2011-12_TheRules.gif The rules for the contest are simple: 1. No mustaches, goatees, etc. You are allowed to ?groom? your beard within reason, but this is a contest for beards, not mustaches or goatees or any other odd-ball facial hair styles you can think of. Understandably not everyone can grow the best full beard, but do your best to. Intentional mustaches, goatees, etc. aren't acceptable. 2. No major cutting. The body of your beard must be as full as you can allow it to be. We understand that people have jobs and can't look like bushman (if they don't choose to), but a beard's "epicness" often relies on it's body, which means if you spent a lot of time cutting it's length and volume, you butcher the idea from the start. 3. Photos are required. It?s not that we don?t trust you, but well, we don?t. This is all based off an honesty system as it is, so the least we ask is that you document the process for us so we can actually see it while it?s happening. Prior to each round you will be required to upload a photo online to post in this thread to update us all on the progress of your beard. At the end of the Stanley Cup finals your final photo will be uploaded and shared, and that photo will be used to compete you against the other contestants in the contest to determine the winner. FIRST PHOTO IS DUE BY GAME DAY OF THE FIRST ROUND! That?s it, folks! Happy growing! http://www.dissensionmedia.com/nyrbb/BSBH_GDT_Spacer.gif Are you in? If so, let me know by posting in this thread! http://www.dissensionmedia.com/nyrbb/contest/PlayoffBeard/2010-11/footer.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Hell... it will only be a week. Might as well sign up... But seriously... can we look into having a Crosboy division? Maybe a Parros division (mustache only)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a Parros division (mustache only)? If we had enough members opting for both, yes. I'd want a minimum of four contestants per division, I'd imagine, and the users could pick which one they want to be part of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Congratulations Rhommy! LOL. I was going to say that Rhommy shouldn't be allowed to participate. Like fantasy hockey in the 80's when you couldn't draft Gretzky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Rhommy can just be crowned preemptively for the "Super Heavyweight Championship", then we can let everyone else go after the other, attainable division titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphinity 2.0 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I might start profiling Rhom with that beard and hair combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindG1000 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I have a dead timer on my beard this year though. I'm attending a pair of weddings during Memorial day and will need to descruff. Either way, I'm in, and you're all fucked if we go short this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Just to give you all an idea - this was from game 1 v Ottawa to game 6 v NJ Bullshit. That was after the 2nd intermission of game 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew a Penalty Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I'd totally win the Crosby division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Bullshit. That was after the 2nd intermission of game 1. Rhommy's the only guy I know who gets road rash on his palms putting on aftershave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Rhommy's the only guy I know who gets road rash on his palms putting on aftershave. We should kidnap him and wax his legs, just for a goof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerms Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Id be in for a mustache category, not allowed to grow a beard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 We should kidnap him and wax his legs, just for a goof. Or we could shave his back. I just bought a lawnmower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we need better division names, though. some brainstorming options. Tortorella: Goatee/mustache facial hair division Hagelin: Cant grow/see facial hair also, need an idea if we all get lumped in together. Non-Wolfpack or something like that.

Phil Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Again, I'd want a minimum of four contestants per division, so I'd advise against creating more than two or three. Crosby Division and Zetterberg Division works for me. There's no point in having a playoff beard competition if you're not going to even grow one (Hagelin division). By that rate every chick could get involved, since they have tiny baby hairs on their faces that no one can see. Completely defeats the purpose.

Well, you'd obviously attempt, but not showing/weak would still be Hagelin (formerly known as Crosby division). Just want it Rangers related.

Just want it Rangers related. Then go with the Brian Boyle division (for mustaches and odd combinations) and the Lundqvist/Nash/Richards/whoever for full beards.

LindG1000 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I need a judgment call. Is the photo due TONIGHT or by game 1 of Rangers/Caps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 By game 1, technically, but I don't think we have enough contestants to do this this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
