Photoshop Contest: Gross-Out Syracuse Sports History

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.

Apologies for the newbie question

How do I get an image uploaded on here?

by Conrad13 on Nov 10, 2009 4:17 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

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.

I was going to paste his head on a cheerleaders body but then I remembered, I have no clue how to do that stuff. That Microsoft class I took did not cover photoshop.

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.

How do you post a picture on here from a file and not a link?

by Orange Chuck on Nov 11, 2009 2:50 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

You can’t. I use www.tinypic.com to upload mine.

Go, fight, and win.

Thanks Alex, I am trying to figure this stuff out.

That's so awful

it’s great

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.

by Orange Chuck on Nov 11, 2009 3:06 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Hahahaha

I’m glad I could help get this image out to everyone.

Go, fight, and win.

by Alex O on Nov 11, 2009 3:12 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

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.

by Orange Chuck on Nov 11, 2009 2:57 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

If someone can figure out how to post that with Dr. Gross as a dancing elf, that might be amusing. In fact, I know it is because I put his face on one but didn’t know how to post it so I shared the link.

by Orange Chuck on Nov 11, 2009 5:26 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

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 :)

by cuseorange on Nov 11, 2009 8:00 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

No actually that is all I can do but some of the better ones are at the top of the page.

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

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.

wow

2 thumbs up.

Or 2 cell phones up to my ears, maybe that’s more appropriate.

but if you go to the “more info” you will see that when you search the following terms, the above video comes up.

I guess I’ll have to do a little bit more searching to figure out how Daryl Gross is in the hall of fame.

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 …
