NJTank Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Well not since Billy Ripken's famous F*** Face Card as a sportscard created such ire as Jets Leon Washington's rookie card.Washington is claiming, that he's just making a hand signal popular in his hometown.http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writ...spot/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB33 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 You gotta love any town where the popular hand sign is the double deuce.EDIT-The card says signs of the future too. Either marketing brilliance or super coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Who poses for their sports card picture?And by poses, I mean something completely unrealted to their position on the field. He kinda looks like Cedric the Entertainer in that pic...except thinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilbert Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 He's not giving the bird, he's just telling the Bears and the Colts that they are both number 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Wait... Bowman still makes cards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleujayone Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Umm....Yeah. Real classy-like. Can't the NFL fine him for doing something detrimental to their image while representing them? It's different from players committing crimes off the field...unless they were in uniform at the time.Now what dunderhead at the card company let that photo go through? For that matter where was the photographer and why didn't he simply log in a photo rejection for that shot and take a few alternates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclopsis Joe Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Like I used to tell my friends: "You know there's an east coast handsign and a westcoast hand sign? Well, Atlanta's is the middle finger."Hence, he must be from the ATL.Fake Edit: Of course, with Usher and whoever, now it's an upside down peace sign. Grumble grumble.

Jezus_Ghoti Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 In my part of the world (southern Ontario), an extended thumb is used to add emphasis to the bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
