It must be the hair? Ok...one thing for sure is that it is weird what the press wrote about my man and his hair? I mean come on what does hair have to do with my mans pitching or what does it have to do with baseball? That is strange how they say.................
-IT MUST BE THE HAIR-
Jason Vargas has only been in the big leagues for six weeks, but already the rookie left-hander has a signature feature. HIS HAIR. Long, black, stringy hair. Hair that spills out from the back and sides of his Marlins cap in true Eckersleyan fashion. Hair that nearly reaches his shoulders when left unchecked and falls into his eyes after almost every pitch. It's great hair really. Probably the best in franchise history and far closer to Video music Awards hair than traditional baseball hair. At the very least it's reality-show hair. Watch him this afternoon at Wrigly Field, where he makes his sixth career start as a Marlin and goes for a second consecutive complete game, and tell me a sharp marketing mind couldn't build an entire endorsement campaigne around that hair. The regulars on the Marlins' Internet message boards have taken to calling Vargas "The Crow" in honor of the late Brandon Lee's hair from that 1994 movie. Me? I think he looks more like a cross between a young Johnny Depp and Mike Damone, the blustery ticket scalper from Fast Times At Ridgemont High. Mention those flowing locks to Vargas, though, and the Marlins rookie sensation seems slightly embarrased. "It needs to be cut," he says. "It's getting hot." See, that's the other thing about Vargas' hair. Even for night games, he sweats like the rest of us in this South Florida humidity, so sweat drips dramatically off his curls as he stares in for the sign. DRIP. DRIP. DRIP. Must be like water torture for his waiting hitters. Not to mention his educator parents. That's the part that drives Joe and Margie Vargas crazy back home in Apple Valley, Cali., about 90 minutes northeast of Los Angeles. "I don't think we'd mind the long hair," says in a phone interview about his only son. "His hair is thick and naturally curly, but when it gets wet, it hangs down and it looks like he's got greasy, groopy- what do they call them?" Jeri curls? "Yeah, Jeri curls," he continues. "Personally, I think he should cut it. Continues........
