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:
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.
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 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!

avatar is usually for one of my teams. Clemson Tigers (Oliver Purnell), Atlanta Braves (Bobby), The Citadel, etc. My favorite avatar is definietly Kent's. Love those GA girls!
On a side note, has anybody heard from The Hook 420? Have not seem him around in a couple weeks. Did I miss something?
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
