Brian Wilson, Steve Nash and the Worst Hairstyles in Sports History
It is well beyond time for the San Francisco Giants' Brian Wilson to shave his beard and cut his hair. It's simply not funny anymore. In fact, it never really was.
The dye job is atrocious. The sculpting is bizarre. And the flair and attitude that accompany the style is flat-out annoying.
As bad as Wilson's hair and beard combo is, it's nowhere near the worst. Here is the start of a list of the worst (or best?) hairstyles in sports history.
I say it's a start because I like to allow you readers to contribute on pieces like this. After you look at all the slides for yourself, tell me who else belongs by leaving a comment below.

Chris Andersen

The "Birdman" has had a number of ridiculous looks during his career. This season's look was mind-blowing.
Jaromir Jagr

Phenomenal.
David Beckham
3 of 34
Beckham's had a few bad looks, but this is inexcusable.

Dennis Rodman

In case you couldn't tell, Dennis Rodman is the one with the sunglasses.
Mike Commodore

I think this is just awesome. You have to love the way he just owns that deep auburn hue.
Alexi Lalas
6 of 34
Lalas's hair and beard is some kind of brilliant combination of soccer and hockey style.
Steve Nash
7 of 34
I think Steve Nash's habit of licking his fingers and using that saliva to paste his hair to his head is causing some trauma for his scalp.
The balding look is not helping what was already a wild 'do.
Wayne Gretzky

Oh, the hockey mullet. Timeless.
Brian Bosworth
9 of 34
With style like that, putting on the helmet had to really tear him up.
Anderson Varejao
10 of 34
I get it Anderson, I do. With your hair the way it is, your flops are much more dramatic and get you get more ridiculous calls. But it's time to cut it off.
Kurt Rambis
11 of 34
NBA basketball player? Truly a different era.
I would like to start a petition for Gordon Hayward to bring back this look.
Sasha Vujacic
12 of 34
This one's the same story as Varejao.
Joakim Noah
13 of 34
I don't know if Noah has some kind of emotional connection to his locks or what. Somebody may have to "mullet hunt" him so he doesn't have a say in the matter.
Adam Morrison
14 of 34
I still don't think this guy got a fair shake in the NBA. Go ahead, let me have it.
Jack Sikma
15 of 34
Sometimes it was straight. Sometimes it was Timberlake-curly. Most times it defied logic.
Andrei Kirilenko
16 of 34
AK-47 has had some outrageous looks, but this season he reached new depths.
Mike Miller
17 of 34
Mike Miller's current mohawk is tough. But it's an upgrade over this and that old ponytail he used to rock.
Brian Wilson
18 of 34
Just cut it already. It's not funny.
Michal Handzus
19 of 34
Hockey 'dos are the best.
Mel Kiper
20 of 34
In terms of hairstyles, there's a fine line between awful and genius.
Ronaldo
21 of 34
The Brazilian striker did himself no favors with this.
Tim Lincecum
22 of 34
I'm pretty sure I've seen this exact hairstyle on half a dozen female television stars from the late '90s.
Andre Agassi
23 of 34
He said it was a wig in his book. That being the case, it's time to pull that thing out of the closet.
Scot Pollard
24 of 34
Sheer desperation.
Randy Johnson
25 of 34
As if Randy Johnson's height as a pitcher wasn't intimidating enough.
Give Me More!

Obviously, there are a ton more terrible (brilliant) hairstyles to display. Some major ones have been left off intentionally.
Leave all your suggestions in the comments section and I'll add them as soon as possible.
