Its corny. Its also not very good. Id like to be compared to Stone Cold Steve Austin but photoshopping my face on his would still be fucking pathetic. And thats the bottom line!Who did this? You need to stop! I just assume we blame la mike.That’s dope. There’s literally nothing wrong with it. Universities make designs for kids. I see nothing wrong with fan love. What kid wouldn’t want to be compared to Griffey anyways?
Y’all gotta see outside the prism of a 30-50 year old middle aged white dude.
Not really. Any teenager would find it cool. Again look outside the prism of old, white, and rich.Its corny. Its also not very good.

Also, what kid wouldn’t want to be compared to a guy who hasnt been great since the 1990s??

I believe the response you are looking for is STOp LIVING IN THE PAST!!!Dang still hung up on that? That was yesterday broIt’s not that serious. It’s a cool concept.

@dnc I dont use the classic sayings out of fear of butchering them. Lol. But ya that's what I meant
And the irony is that this "edit" will appeal almost exclusively to an audience of 30-50 year old white dudes, not the 17 year old kid it is targeting. The mystique of the Ken Griffey Jr Upper Deck rookie card is cool nostalgia for guys who idolized him as kids. Unfortunately those guys are approaching 40. Baseball card collecting, card shops, shows, and the star of Griffey all died out long before Emeka was even born. Im sure he knows that Griffey was a local start, if he saw this, theres an 80% chance someone had to explain the reference to him and without familiarity or context it just looks like a somewhat shitty, confusing edit.Who did this? You need to stop! I just assume we blame la mike.That’s dope. There’s literally nothing wrong with it. Universities make designs for kids. I see nothing wrong with fan love.

Race should put his face on this next

When I was a kid I knew who Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays were. Never saw them play, knew they were legends. Griffey is the Seattle version of those guys. He's timeless. Emeka is also a great baseball player so if this isn't at least flattering then I don't know what else would be.And the irony is that this "edit" will appeal almost exclusively to an audience of 30-50 year old white dudes, not the 17 year old kid it is targeting.

Like I said I think it's harmless in this case.When I was a kid I knew who Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays were. Never saw them play, knew they were legends.

Emeka is also a great baseball player so if this isn't at least flattering then I don't know what else would be.And the irony is that this "edit" will appeal almost exclusively to an audience of 30-50 year old white dudes, not the 17 year old kid it is targeting.

I think the argument that *ANY* kid would be honored to be comped to Griffey, while telling other people to get out of the mind of middle aged white dudes is hilarious.
Most American black kids today couldn't GAF about beisbol (hell, most white kids too). Egbuka is different (different!) so this probably works with him.
we? make fun of doogs but this thread has veered towards arguing over a recruiting photoshop
we? make fun of doogs but this thread has veered towards arguing over a recruiting photoshopKnew here?
But wait...Griffey was a kid from Ohio who ripped the heart out of Seattle by being loyal to his hometown and leaving the flourishing franchise for one that was long dead from it's former glory and it went horribly? Is that a good or a bad parallel in this case?
Griffey’s a cultural icon that transcends generations. Stop it.STOp thinking like a middle aged white dude!Who did this? You need to stop! I just assume we blame la mike.That’s dope.
