So, I just got blown up for suggesting that Mike Schmidt has the best white guy fro in baseball history. Listen, I could be a homer and just say that Randy Jones wins the fro competition, hand down, no contest… but that’s lame. I mean… the picture of Schmidt here, that’s a full bodied fro. Randy’s fro is looking a tiny bit thin in comparison. Clearly Randy is the better looking dude of the two, but that’s not what we’re settling here.
On the field, (no I did not go crunch any statistics) after finding this old newspaper clipping… it sure seems like Randy owned Mike.
Didn’t even know about Schmidt mouthing off about Randy Jones. Pretty funny. If you go strictly by silhouette logos… well, the winner is clear. RJ’s Fro.
So, who ya got in the AFRO category from their playing days? RJ or Schmidt?
*update – in comparison… this is me in college… on the right*

I gots BP ’99 Disco Inferno …..best.crackass.fro.ever
there it is.
no do it silhouette style
second this^
Schmiddie’s afro looks like it can protect his noggin from violent collisions – that is the hallmark of a good ‘fro.
Side note: your college disco pic was funny the first time you posted it. The fourth time, not so much.
wait til you see it for the 17th time. it’ll be hysterical.
FWIW I meant to put a smiley face to indicate some facetiousness on the side note.
you’re dead to me.
Love me some RJ, but Schmidt’s wig takes the cake.
Mike Schmidt is Uncle Rico!
