Definitely a good argument.
Picture's not even showing up, boss
Plus museums are dumb.

Anybody else not seeing the picture?
It loads up fine on each of my computers though I can’t get it on my phone. It is a fairly large image.
Definitely a good argument.
well you are missing out
it’s a picture of former Reds players with hot naked supermodels riding on unicorns being chased by wizards.
Definitely a good argument.
what I like most about the picture is that you can't tell if the wizards are evil
or if they are just looking for autographs. It’s really deep.
Definitely a good argument.
works for me
You have to click the text link, not the picture.
I love caricatures. This is a great idea.
But I don’t think the artist did a particularly good job of capturing likenesses.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I disagree
I could tell who all of the recent players were right away. If anything, I’d say that Chris Sabo does not look enough like a caricature.
Definitely a good argument.
All of the ex-Reds look like red x's to me.

holy cow
You’re right. It looks fine for me in Firefox, but when I switched to IE, I get the red x, too.
Something must be screwy in the coding.

is it just me
or has that picture gotten smaller and smaller throughout the day?
Made from 100% Recycled Awesome,
I guess you can't get them all in
but to not have Frank Robinson in it is just wrong,
Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
