Dude!...What?!?

Just quickly, I want to make it clear I have no problems with Clay Buchholz as a person. I'm even completely over the fact that his last name has two, count 'em...two, consecutive "H's." But I just saw something I never thought I'd see and Buchholz's name was attached to it. Tell me you ever thought you'd see this:
Yes, this does lend itself to every horrible, stereotypical, hyper-masculine joke you can conceive of, but honestly....
And again, I understand that there is a fundamental and practical legitimacy to this, but if Buchholz's value is that he's been doing everything he can to help "the Boys," then what is this all about? And does it mean that in order to continue helping out he needs to get a manicure before games?
Ughhh. Not that I want Buchh picking up habits from Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson, but if you're going to have personal beauticians follow you on road trips, let it be someone that's going to be giving you "cornrows" rather than someone who specializes in filing, tissue enamels, and "hang nails."
But, in support of the Boys, I must admit I did do some research into this and found some potential help for Buchholz. Please enjoy, to the extent we can celebrate something like this.
