I think they could find a middle ground, where the guy in the old trophy is about to kick a cob of corn.
ReplyDeleteNah, the guy in the Heisman pose, but holding corn instead of a football.
ReplyDeleteYou have to admit, it is a little overkill that he's both carrying a football AND about to kick one. Just a little play I like to call The Ol' Touchfield!
ReplyDeleteHate to say it, but the original trophy at just the right angle would have been a bit pornographic... dude with an ear of corn in his hand at about the same level as that kid's crotch. I'm sure that might have been taken into consideration.
ReplyDeleteTaken into cornsideration...
ReplyDeleteLooks like he's about to kick a giant coffee bean.
