"La Mano de Dios"

#1 Post by ulysses5019 » Sun Nov 23, 2008 1:24 pm

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.

Yeah, what's up with the feet?

Have you had the whole weekend off?

Wow! The lack of feet, the lack of arms plus the two players look like they might possibly be Eng and Chang.

I actually thought it was kind of neat. Is it an illustration, or a photo of a real hand?

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

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.
