    Saw this picture on Soccernet as the header for a preview to USA-Mexico. I remember McBride's reaction to the first goal but I didn't notice this picture before, until they put it up. Is it the actual image or is it computer edited with the Mexican player put into the same picture? 'Cause, out of context, it looks like what it is, McBride pointing at the guy and laughing, and it's pretty funny just to look at.

    God you have to love 2D representations of a 3D world. He's almost certainly pointing at Wolff there.

    But man they could use that as bulletin board stuff.

    I thought McBride pointed to Reyna and then ran over and jumped on him.

    Hmmm.

    anyone know how I could save this image, expand it so it is tolerable, and use it as my wallpaper?

    The picture stretches A LOT when you resize it for wallpaper. Unless you like that sorta thing...

    Yeah, that's what I think, too.

    Still funny to look at, though.

    Then you just go to your display properties in your control panel and either center it or tile it, so that it isn't so stretched out.

    But that picture does look funny, being how that mexican is a defender, it looks like he's backtracking on defense and not reacting to the goal.

    I know that, I'm saying if you change the size properties so that it's wallpaper size it distorts pretty good.

    I'm just not very computer proficient. I figured I could do so with photoshop or some other software. But I don't have the time or access.

    That's the funniest picture I've seen in a long time. It gets funnier every time I see it. I wonder, if McBride was really pointing at that chump Carmona, what was he thinking?

    "Ha ha, let's all laugh and point at the losers!"

    "Who sucks?"

    "Who wants to be my bi*ch next?"

    Gearing up for Saturday, this thread deserves a revival.

    Picture still makes me laugh.

    I think he's actually pointing at the huge balloons in your avatar or is it just that my eyes can't be taken away from them. :)
