Ok, I’ll call it "football" this time…

By Shannon • Apr 10th, 2007 • Category: ModBlog

…since everyone got upset when I posted a football face and called it “soccer”. Anyway, following up to the Maradona portrait, here’s one by one of my favorite South American artists, Darwin Enriquez at Mithos Tattoo in Caracas, Venezuela.

    you ALMOST got it right…
    using football instead of soccer is a huge step, but why the hell are you fixated with maradona? Where´s Pelé, for god´s sake?
    ;)

    Technically, Shannon, if you’re going to feature Maradona - or Pele - you have to call it “futbol” .. :-)

    ChillyMama is rigth, but Milky´s way waaay wrong. We have Cortazar, Borges, Charly Garcia, Perez Celis. Maradona´s just a futbol (football) player!

    As a football fan and England follower, I was born and bread to hate Maradona. However, that’s a great tattoo =)
