playoff beard

The NHL playoffs have started. The Caps are playing well. To get into the playoff spirit, I was hoping to grow a playoff beard along with the players. In fact, doing so would have helped a charity. But someone - I will give you a hint, her name rhymes with Elaine - told me in no uncertain terms that a beard isn't acceptable. There was also some rumbling about a family picture (hopefully the Caps are still winning in early May). I think this is ridiculous.
