"La Mano de Dios"
Just thought I'd put up an avatar in honor of the MLS Cup which is being played today in Carson. If aj stands up I can probably see him from here.
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

Your new avatar scares me. Apparently you demand that some play soccer without feet.ulysses5019 wrote:Just thought I'd put up an avatar in honor of the MLS Cup which is being played today in Carson. If aj stands up I can probably see him from here.

Wow! The lack of feet, the lack of arms plus the two players look like they might possibly be Eng and Chang.christie1111 wrote:Yeah, what's up with the feet?silvercamaro wrote:Your new avatar scares me.

I actually thought it was kind of neat. Is it an illustration, or a photo of a real hand?cindy.wellman wrote:Wow!

LOL! Ok, I totally missed the hand part of that. Of course now I see that a hand is involved.

Re: "La Mano de Dios"
It's a real hand. I was familiar with the work of an artist named "Guido Daniele," who is known for the animals that he creates from human hands and paint. These soccer players, however, apear to be the work of "Mario Mariotti." Search Google Images for either artist and you will be astounded. I prefer Guido's stuff, as it tends to be more realistic.hermillion wrote:I actually thought it was kind of neat. Is it an illustration, or a photo of a real hand?
