Could This BE Any Worse?!


Seriously, the kid is a little goofy looking, but not this bad! With all the great photogs who work for SI, you'd think they'd have been able to take a picture that doesn't make the poor guy look like a pinhead wearing a halter top with gold trim at the bottom.
And cutting off his swimsuit! SI, why you gotta be that way? Ladies like the Speedo ya know

I totally thought it was a halter top at first glance - sheesh!

Allison said...

Yeah, and is he REALLY wearing a swimsuit on the bottom?

Cara said...

they definately didnt do him any justice, because he is actually very nice looking except his teeth are a little weird. and i thought it was a weird top at first too.

Katie said...

totally agree, it's SUCH a terrible cover. too bad.

Meg said...

Once again, you having me rolling. Yes, he is completely a gay, swimming, cross-dresser, with microcephaly and a mouth full of teeth like Edward Cullen. Way to go SI, maybe edit your pics next time. BTW, I'M BACK, thanks for being so patient!

Unknown said...

Worst cover picture ever. What were they thinking? And patient may not be the right word Megs, but we are glad to see you didn't die of fright on your flights to and from Hawaii.

People, people, people....the picture is a replica of the Mark Spitz 7 gold medals cover that SI did after his 7 medal Olympic performance.....still dorky though - Clara Barton

Sue said...

Clara! glad to see you have graced us with your presence! what's new???

Laurie said...

yeah for Clare! And I know it's supposed to mimic the M Spitz poster but it still didn't have to make the guy look like a total clown.

Unknown said...

Agreed. They still could have made him look like the cutie he is!

I'm impressed that you looked that far up - with a torso like that, i didn't even notice he has a face.
