So, even though it's spring break, life has been rather busy! Trying to catch up on work, be a good intern and get some face time with the parents (but not in that order). Sorry for the lack of updates. Until May 18, 2009 (AHHHHHHHHH!!!! graduation!!) the updates will probably get more sporadic and less frequent but I'll definitely try my best.
So World Cup is next year and whatever BUT Euro Cup 2012 is going to be in Poland!!!!!!!!!and ukraine but POLAND!! Anybody that saw me on the day this was announced (a little over a year ago) definitely could tell I was bubbling over with excitement. It would be a dream come true to be there when this is happening (not even at the games, THAT'S wishing for too much haha, but definitely on the streets, watching the game from the pubs and feeling the shared excitement with everyone else.)
And I'm getting way off track. The point of this entry was just these three soccer posters.
These two are rival posters about a match between Argentina and Brazil. The first one was made before the match by Argentina. I think it's wickedly funny and really clever (and would NEVER fly in America).
This last one is very simple but very good. The swastika is probably one of the most recognizable symbols in the world and generally just stands for hate. Hate for someone that is not like you. So again, simple poster, simple concept but powerful message. Especially with how much hate there can sometimes be surrounding soccer.
those first two posters are definitely clever and fucking hilarious, but that last one really takes the cake. fucking brilliant and beautiful. good post. =)
