Matt Hasselbeck really wants to win this Saturday. No, he really wants to beat the Redskins on Saturday. To help his cause, he’s called upon the services of neglecting a razor and letting a hideous amazing mustache grow.

We haven’t seen this kind of mustache in some time. It likens me back to the days when Sid Bream was winning gold gloves and seemed to be possessed by his mustache. In the NFL, I think of the wonder that was Jeff Hostetler when he was slingin’ the pigskin wit the Raiders and Giants. It’s debatable as to whether or not Hasselbeck is a better quarterback than his counterpart Hostetler, but what isn’t disputable is the ridiculousness of their nose brooms.

The irony in this comes from the fact that Hasselbeck is bald. Perhaps he’s using this as a distraction for Redskins defenders? Clearly it’s not just there to keep his upper lip warm for the winter months. All I know is come Saturday, I’m going to be paying more attention to Hasselbeck’s sleezbag mustache than I will the actual game. Nice, Matt. Nice.
