Fernando Torres Cuts His Hair

For those of you that don't know us, we enjoy watching football. We also enjoy watching beautiful people play football. Fernando Torres is one of those people. 

We have a love/hate relationship with him (Mocha is especially torn.) He is beautiful. When he played at Liverpool (YNWA), he could do no wrong. The golden boy. El Niño. 

Then... he moved to Chelsea (vomit.) Since Chelsea is the antithesis of all that is right and good in football, we couldn't bear to watch him anymore. But we still love him. He makes our heart ache in this beautiful delicious way that we could probably channel to write some amazingly bad poetry.

Kickette has dubbed Torres "the Samson of the EPL", and they're right. When his hair is long and blond and flowing, life is good. Goals are scored. When he cuts his hair, things aren't quite so peachy. If he dyes it brown, that's asking for trouble.

So yesterday we discover that HE'S BUZZED IT ALL OFF. 

May the gods have mercy on our souls.

Can't pinpoint exactly who he reminds us of now, but it's definitely not his usual, wondrous blond self:
