really, not at all?

does it work when you click the link?

Definitely a good argument.

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.

by Slyde on Nov 8, 2009 10:12 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

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.

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.

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.

Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.

I guess you can't get them all in

but to not have Frank Robinson in it is just wrong,

Yep

Once again you are right on the mark…I’d like to see Pete there too…he’s no bigger Dick than Bench.
