Now I'm disappointed. It's back to normal. I really liked that big-ass Viva Mexico logo. That's when I started chuckling. Well done, Huss.
your opinion, yes. in my opinion, it's a freakin riot. i don't know what's more amusing ... the lengths to which "they" are force-feeding us this telmex/pepsi/mexicana airlines corporate takeover advertisement stuff, or how posters are reacting to it.
I think it's funny. Scratch that. I think the people so self-righteous that they take time to get in a huff about a soccer message board are funny. The thing that gets them there really isn't importantbecause it isn't hard anymore.
I think it's hilarious...if this is in fact a joke. I guess that's the beauty of April Fools. This is all so absurd that it has to be fake but I have that sneaking suspicion in the back of my mind that my worst internet-related fears have been realized. This has easily been the most elaborate April Fools joke I've seen, though. First the Telmex banner at the top of the BigSoccer page around midnight last night. Then the Pepsi Mundo ads invading our signatures and avatars. Then the Spanish ads for Toyota and Verizon. Now the giant Mexican map with an eagle in the center after posting or visiting a new thread. It just keeps getting more absurd. Of course, if this is all still here tomorrow then I'll be pretty devastated.
Aw Huss, couldn't you wait until we had 16 pages of complaints? For what its worth, I thought it was funny. I especially liked the 365 article. Nice touch.
If you have the access to the premium skins, change skins to a premium one. All the regular avatars and signatures are back. I wonder if they were Coca-Cola ads, would we all be posting anti-Coke messages?
Anyone who pays for service should not be affected by any April fools joke without their consent. I feel sorry for the paid members. That's why i will always be a free user.
Eh you say that now, but had it turned out to be real you'd be right there with us throwing fits. I blame the news story though, that was the lynch pin of the joke.
