Matta Meme

Submitted by Dizzo on

Ok, this might be tempting fate doing a thread like this two nights in a row, but when I saw this image of Matta on Twitter I couldn't resist. And since we're playing them tomorrow it might be a good way to pass the time. Just like the Creanface yesterday, the transparent image is below along with my first attempt.

New column on "Bracketiatry." There is also a blurb on Michigan.

Ohio State (5-seed, East Region)

Emotion represented: Whatever this is

Pick if you’re #passionate about: This, this, this, this, or this, and also liquor store robberies

The state of Ohio is basically Florida plus seasons, and the Ohio State University basketball team is basically Florida plus an extra-screamy coach named Thad, minus offense, plus a scrappy little pink-cheeked point guard who subsists on a diet of gutsy 3-pointers and window-cooled apple pies. I don’t really know how to do that math, which gives me something in common with everyone in Ohio.

ESPN did a pretty good job of highlighting the fact that Matta' head seemed to glisten like a ham in the lights of Banker's Life, especially while they were behind. Sometimes, it almost seemed like he was forcing the sweat out of his face. It was rather amusing in closeups, to say the least.

Somehow, he is actually younger than Tim Miles by a year.  How is that possible?  I mean, look at these two:

 

I'm convinced Matta is the Danny Almonte of the B1G.  Someday we will learn that he was actually born 20 years earlier in the Dominican Republic.

So I looked up the definition of Meme and felt it was an appropriate use:

  • a humorous image, video, piece of text, etc. that is copied (often with slight variations) and spread rapidly by Internet users.

Love it but he'll never be in the Crean/Izzo league :)  Matta just isn't nearly as big an a-hole as either of those two.

Regardless, keep them coming!

It's still the best. It's not balding, it's shrinking. Eventually, he'll have a tiny skullcap of hair that looks exactly like it does now sitting on the crown of hiss head.
