From time to time, I come across an eBay listing that makes me chuckle. This one made me roar.
CLICK HEREMy colleague, T.S. O’Connell swears that these posters are doctored or something, but I really think that they are actual images of the usually manly-looking Herschel Walker and Dwight Clark (at least the seller describes the poster as being Clark, but he kinda looks like Bruce Jenner).
The person selling these items seems to
specialize in vintage football posters, so I have no reason to think these are manipulated images.
Anyway, I came up with a few questions after seeing these images:
No. 1: Did superstar athletes of the 80s wear sports bras on a regular basis?
No. 2: Where is Walker’s neck in that photo?
No. 3: Those shorts have to hurt, don’t they??
No. 4: If that is Clark in the poster, if he was still playing in the NFL, Shawn Merriman would eat him alive, girly, little arms and all.
No. 5: Did Adidas really think these posters would help sell shoes?
