So, about David Diehl's mustache?

It wasn't David Diehl's work as a Fox analyst for the Giants-Jaguars game last weekend that got most of the social media attention.
It was the mustache the former Giant wore as part of "Movember," a movement to raise awareness of men's health issues, including prostate and testicular cancer.
Diehl said he has lost an uncle and a coach to male-specific cancers.
"Did it look ridiculous? Absolutely," he said. "But I was doing it for a good cause and a good reason."
Now that it's December, the 'stache is gone. But the cause goes on.
