Friday, January 7: Two Pictorial Reactions To The Shanahan Hiring

The folks over at ExtremeSkins are a talented bunch. Just in my limited experience with them, I’ve seen ES members cook, organize large-scale gatherings, design hats, and create commemorative booklets, all with a high level of acuity — and I’m sure they all get up to much more than that when I’m not around.

One of the other things they’ve got some skill at is graphic design, and a few of the members have whipped up pictorial references to the hiring of new head coach Mike Shanahan. Two of them jumped out at me, as both striking images and accurate representations of fan reaction, and I thought they were worth posting here. (Click the images to enlarge.)

In an unrelated note, as I was looking at the various images on ES, I came across this Chick Hernandez animated GIF. I have no idea what it signifies, but it was too bizarre not to post. Consider it an adjunct to my old Many Hats Of Chick Hernandez item, and be sure to sit through the whole sequence.
