Reflecting

With the moustache growing championship long since past, and the NOML having banned Jeff Bowler for his shocking infractions of direct tournament rules, the past few months have a been a time for intense reflection for the fallen warrior.

The immense pressures of both the business and social world forced Jeff into a decision from which he has yet to recover. On that fateful day, when his razor removed all hopes of a moustache championship, it also crushed the dreams of many aspiring young moustache growers who looked up to Jeff Bowler as an icon and mentor.

Well J.B. has made a dramatic pitch to the NOML committee (yes he is a co-founder) and asked for reinstatement. What does this mean? Well nothing was clearly stated by Jeff, but remarks from his agent lead us to believe he is considering a challenge to Nate Bowler for a future event. "Jeff has fought long and hard to recover from what happened last fall. He is making progress and we believe he can compete again. Jeff has a great support system and I think this has allowed him to make enormous strides in a very short amount of time. We do not wish to make any formal committments or propose any competitions at this time, only that the NOML immediately reinstate Mr. Bowler. I have no other comments on this issue and we ask that you please respect his and his family's privacy."

Stay tuned for the revival of the NOML.
