Cherry backs no-beard stance
TAMPA, FLA. — The head of NBC Sports has a notable supporter in his bid to ban playoff beards: Don Cherry.
The Coach’s Corner host said Wednesday night it makes sense, even though he knows it won’t happen.
“I see the guys holding the Cup up, and then I see them in the summer with his beard off, he makes a lot of sense,” Cherry said Wednesday night. “Don’t laugh at the guy. It makes sense, but they’ll never get rid of the beard.”
