Oberkfell had a good one, but was a beard for a good long time as well. Frank Viola's mustache was, however, terrific. If the rotation went 5 deep, he would be on the team.<br /><br />@BC Good call. Those '80s Tigers were very well 'stached. Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker would be far better appreciated today if they had indulged in the mustache.<br /><br />@ Josh If only Buckner's knees had mustaches, he might have been able to bend down and field that ball. If McNamera had a mustache, he would have remembered to make the switch. If Dave Stapleton had a mustache, it would have reminded Mac to put the youngster in in the first place.<br /><br />@ BC TCM had forgotten how amazing Beck's mustache was. Goose's is more famous, but Beck's is superior.
