Explain your avatar

Just thinking to myself, a lot of us have avatars that need a little explaining, so why not start a thread for such a topic.

Here's my explanation....naturally, as a Georgia fan, I saw this pic and fell in love. If you want to check out the full set of UGA co-eds and a larger version of this picture, here's the link:

http://www.popcrunch.com/hottest-st...ity-of-georgia/

My buddy sent me the above before we left last Fall for Tempe, AZ for the Uga/Asu game. FYI - Arizona State was ranked #1 by the "publication" with the hottest coeds.

There's my explanation. What's yours?

Uga

First off....UGA my favorite avatar on here. Any picture I try and use as mine gets rejected because it's too big. Just a die hard NY fan here.

Mine goes way back to a time when we were suffering through a slump and MVC had an idea to put up the logo that we were betting against. A streak something like 20-1 followed over the next week or so, and I have continued the "fade the avatar" ever since.

I almost forgot

Now that I think about it, that may have been Big Monte's idea.

I am from Las Vegas so I have no fandom in any pro sport. Only the Runnin' Rebels get my emotional investment. So each year I adopt a baseball team to root for. Last year I adopted the devil rays last may and they went on an epic run. I take full credit for their success. This year I think I am going to adopt the Royals.

I like what Coco will do for them. I think they will be able to manufacture more runs and play some more small ball a la the LAA. I also really like their closer Soria.


So Let's Go Royals!

Mike-

That's not pain! Once hockey season is done, my Cubbies avatar might be back.

Now that is pain!!

The explanation behind my avatar is a complicated and thoughtful metaphor on Kafka-esque Existentialism and how no matter how many times we transform through life we all end up as nothing.




















actually I've just been too busy/lazy/preoccupied to put one up

Baseball is the greatest game ever. Ever! My avatar is of Torri Hunter when he was a Twin (my team) leveling the hated White Sox catcher.

Good triumphs over evil.

Classic baseball play!
