    Fun fact: the phenomenon you are experiencing is known as semantic satiation. When your brain is exposed a word repeatedly, it can eventually begin to perceive said word (in this case, beard) as nonsense.

    Edit: My contribution is Beard to the Future.

    Update: The Rockets marketing staff has decided to look elsewhere for a slogan due to all the ridiculous and repeated entries posted on cf.net

    If you came up with this, it's pretty good.

    Semi-grunching (since the thread is long) so sorry if any of these have already been suggested:

    The beard will be heard!

    Beware the beard!

    and my personal favorite...

    Beard Ballin' (can be sung by the crowd with the chorus of Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'" i.e. "And we're beeaaard... beeaaard baaaalliiin'")

    Beard is the word could be used similarly by linking it to that "Bird is the word" song... "Beard-beard-beard... beard is the word"

    Thanks, but I don't think the Rockets front office will see any value in ZZ Top humor. ;)

    The above quote gets my vote.

    My 2 cents:

    Beard the Beard.
