In response to our All-Time FC Dallas Best Hair Team – and with apologizes to Men in Blazers – I felt it was time to do an All-Time Balds Team for FCD.
This one kind of speaks for itself but it was harder than you might think as there’s a difference between really short hair and a smooth dome.
Forwards
Dante Washington – The Burn striker went smooth in 1997 and never looked back.
Embed from Getty ImagesJeff Cunningham – Jeff had hair and often just kept it really short. But there were periods he went clean-shaven.
Toni Nhleko – Like several others on this list, Toni had hair he just often chose to shave his head smooth.
Ali Curtis – He only played for the Burn for half a season but was in a smooth scalp the entire time.
Embed from Getty ImagesZdenek Ondrasek – For Kobra it’s usually just short, but from time to time he skins it so we’ll put him in.
Dominic Oduro – Rapidly receding, Oduro seems to have started shaving it completely sometime in 2007.
Andres Escobar – Another striker that varied from just short to full shave.
Midfielders
Brian Haynes – the T&T International keeps it tight!
Embed from Getty ImagesJackson – While he wasn’t a natural bald, he had it cut pretty smooth when he first arrived in Dallas.
Embed from Getty ImagesDefenders
Richard Farrer – merely receding in 1996, by the end of his playing days he was full chrome dome.
Embed from Getty ImagesSteve Morrow – Morrow was going bald way back in his Arsenal days and had the shaved look while at QPR before coming to MLS.
Embed from Getty ImagesEric Dade – the original smooth cut Burn defender.
Embed from Getty ImagesJair Benitez – Arrived in Dallas with the fully shaved head and never had any other look.
Goalkeepers
Matt Jordan – Had some hair when he was drafted but by the time he left FCD in 2002 it was rapidly vanishing. He was full bald well before he retired from playing.
