Dan Shenin gives us the scoop on what really happens with the silver wig.

Great piece

So, the Silver Wig Appreciation Society Standings (SWASS) now stand at:
Scott Olsen - 2
Luis Atilano - 1
Adam Dunn - 1
Willie Harris - 1
Livan Hernandez - 1*
Craig Stammen - 1
Josh Willingham - 1
Ryan Zimmerman - 1**

* - Awarded wig but did not wear due to giant melon
** - Awarded wig bud did not appear with it on.

So, I don't think this list is complete.  It's all I could go back and find, so help me fill in the gaps.  We'll keep track of these along with the Beachball/Dibble standings.

Zimmerman: Usually it's obvious. I think if it comes down to a split decision, usually Pudge is the ones who decides things. Because he's obviously been in the league for like 84 years, so he gets to decide.

This is my favorite quip

Zimmerman: I have not gotten it. And secretly, deep down inside, it eats me up.

after listening to the Zimmerman radio ads, I'm convinced he's our Peyton Manning.  I can't wait for the Nats to win the WS so Zimm can host SNL.

Great piece

You read this stuff and it makes you feel really good about this team, they've got tremendous chemistry this year, it's just a bunch of guys who seem to love playing together.  Hats off to Mike Rizzo.

LOL

The MLB Tonight guys were dying over the Silver Wig -- they're like, wait, what, was that real? Is there something going on in Washington with the Wig?

I like how Al Leiter was so stunned that he couldn't say anything for awhile. Harold was in hysterics

Zim has never gotten the wig.

Zim has never gotten the wig.

His two-homer, one double night that after he came back, he must have gotten it.  There weren't any pictures of it, though.

Zim said he never got it. I thought they only give it out at home games and that game was on the road.

Always great to hear a true believer in the Power of Sports Superstition.

"Ian Desmond: I was supposed to wear it two days ago and we couldn't locate the Silver Fox. That's why we lost the next day."

Stupid local media seems to be JUST realizing that the team is doing the wig thing.

I saw this last night on MLBN - that was so funny. Yeah, I feel good about being a Nats fan.

[Zoidberg]

I love this team it is like a real baseball team.

I'm guessing Olsen slept with the wig on last night?
