Don't forget, contest runs through Saturday night. Get your entries in ASAP!
As we were reminded last night, DOCTOR Daryl Gross likes to be seen when Syracuse Athletics does well. Even if he didn't particularly have anything to do with that success. If there's a camera in the vicinity, you can be sure that the good DOCTOR will be there.
But think of all the great Syracuse moments that DOC missed? So many pre-2005 memories, so many opportunities to inject himself into the story...gone forever.
Or are they?
Your mission...search out images from some of Syracuse's finest moments, celebrations and games that happened before DOCTOR Gross' arrival and photoshop him into them in order to fulfill his destiny as the binding glue that holds our fragile athletics program together. So many to choose from...Ernie Davis getting the Heisman, Jim Boeheim cutting down the nets in 2003, The first instance of the Air Gait...the possibilities are endless.
I trust you'll find them all.
Create your photos and post them in the comments below. The winner will receive a free Shut It Down T-shirt and there might possibly be other prizes TBD. Contest will run through Saturday, November 14th 11:59pm. We'll choose some favs and vote on the winner next Monday.
Good luck, Godspeed and Gross-out SU sports history.

Is DOCTOR Gross allowed to enter this contest too?
Because I’m pretty sure he’s already done this himself.
Easiest way
Upload your image to flickr or one of those sites, grab the link to the JPG and then insert that link into the post

"ITS NOT PHOTOSHOPPING IF YOU WERE THERE IN YOUR MIND REMEMBER THAT!"
Just read that on DOCTOR Gross’ Facebook page. Apparently he reads this blog.
Did you know
Daryl Gross played for Texas?
It’s hard to tell, I know, but trust me, it’s him.
Go, fight, and win.

We have a winner!
When I heard about this contest, I started thinking of great images in SU history and the “Arabian Goggles” incident came to mind immediately. This makes my day!

Took me a while
to find him. Bravo.

Wow, him and Devo had a closer relationship than I realized.
I would at least like to believe Devo considered that addition to his tattoo a drunken mistake in the middle of getting over Andy.
Thanks Alex, I am trying to figure this stuff out.

That was my first time doing one. I wanted it to be slightly disturbing and I couldn’t find Dr. Cantor’s body so I went with this.

Thank Alex
I figured it out now and Sean, can you please delete the two posts before this one of me trying it out, thanks.
Send your own 
ok i get it
i think we can just picture a square cutout of gross’ head on every syracuse-related photo on the internet and call it a day :)
No actually that is all I can do but some of the better ones are at the top of the page.

I actually think this would have happened

Awesome Job, Team
If I had my own office instead of being in a cube farm, I would be busting open. I’ll probably do that tonight when I’m at home. What an attention whore.
Look
.jpg)
here is DOCTOR Gross getting a shot with the mens crew team while in England for the Henley Royal Regatta!
Oh wait this is a real photo. Its ironic because before this photo, Gross had never been to the boat house let alone a race…. wait, he didnt go to the races at Henley either, just jumped in the middle of a shot with the team? Shit.

The guy on one knee, second from the right...
the look on his face is PRICELESS. Like, ’I’ve never seen you at a meet before and now I have to suck up to you before you cancel crew for men’s ice hockey.’
At least he got to put his arm around the good doctor.

No!
I feel like I cheated everyone.

The Doctor brought along his old Pal for this Lacrosse title back in 2000, although Greggers seems to be a little confused as to where the camera is …
