Warcraft Wednesday: Warcraft's Warface
We all witnessed the disappointing loss to the cheese turds last Sunday, and easily the most upsetting part of that game was Purple Jesus dropping 175 yards on their green and gold asses only to have that effort go wasted as the defense decided to trickle urine down their leg all game long, letting the Packers win. BOO!
The second most discouraging part though? Having to watch our favorite punter of the Minnesota Vikings, Chris Kluwe, chase down a return man when his coverage team let him down. What we got to see was another classic "Kluwe tackle" which we've already seen immortalized in statue form. There have been hints that this isn't the only statue in production, nor the Devin Hester returns the only instance when Kluwe got burned for a return (Reggie Bush, anyone?!), but it would make me happier if our punter didn't have to go through this anguish.
That anguish, however ... the anguish you can clearly see on his face when attempting to tackle a football player ... turns to unbridled intimidation when you get Kluwe in the right atmosphere:
BOOYA! WARCRAFT, BITCHES! FEEL THE DEMON POWER RISING FROM MY LOINS AS I SPIT HOT FLAME OF UNINTELLIGBLE WAILINGS THAT WAIL!!
This is a picture I've been holding on to that both terrifies me and inspires me. So primal, so sexy, such a large mouth. This is Kluwe in his element, and it's pretty cool. I believe this is one of many pictures taken from a recent show that his band, Tripping Icarus, did at the Fine Line Music Cafe in October. The pictures are from a guy called Joe Lemke, who has a whole collection of nice shots over on his website I suggest checking out, who managed to capture Kluwe in his natural habitat and comfort zone perfectly.
Yes, Joe was able to turn a face normally contorted in effort and anguish into a face filled with passion and talent. What magic technology can do this?!? Oh ... I guess it's just a camera. Either way, pretty cool.
Here are some more of Joe's better Kluwe pics, but again, go check them out on his site for all of the goodies (click here):

Wow, lots of comments today. I think I'm getting a semi-bone. Or it could be the fact that I just finished watching Amelia on wcco. Kluwe. Beautiful.
@Qommie Would, but do not own a Kluwe jersey nor a Favre one I can convert. Also, not man enough to grow facial hair for wicked chin fuzz.
@feistyfan@PJD@Qommie If only... if only. Maybe I could find one of those sweet bucket hats he always wore.
@feistyfan@PJD@Qommie I also bought a new Moss jersey last season... anyone want to make issue about that? I was also very upset with that purchase. FUCKING CHILDO!
@PJD I refuse to buy a Favre jersey, event at a discount, that I can convert into a Kluwe jersey. Maybe @CollegeWolf can loan you some hair? I think I remember seeing one or two strands on his chest in his shirtless mirror picture.
@PJD Whoa whoa whoa... my collection is of shitty players but that would be stepping it up to the next level.
Being that I don't get to the Vikings Store all that often if you wanted to pick one up & send it to me I would be happy to add it to the collection.
@MikeFromWinnipeg I would also expect you to round that collection out now by picking up an authentic #87 jersey, once it's on fire sale at the Vikings Store.
@MikeFromWinnipeg@Qommie That might be the worse collection of jersey's I've ever heard of. Wow.

@Qommie ummm... yes... I OWN a jersey... point? I also own a Hovan jersey & a #19 Williamson jersey. As stated earlier I am awesome & also like to purchase jerseys of shitty football players. Wanna fight about it?
@CollegeWolf@Qommie@PJD I have an old favre jersey & could shave the same facial hair but I would look nothing like him. Plus in Winnipeg no one would get the cost so it would be a waste.

While I'm happy a bunch of new people are checking out Warcraft Wednesday, I am similarly disappointed that they are not leaving comments and making fun of @MikeFromWinnipeg and @CollegeWolf.
@MikeFromWinnipeg@CollegeWolf Luckily all the visitors are likely to be waaayy too lazy to travel all the way to Canada, so I think you're safe.

@PJD@CollegeWolf Maybe they read it thought that this crap (personally I think it is awesome) was not worth their time...

@MikeFromWinnipeg@PJD@CollegeWolf How could anyone think awesome pictures of Kluwe are crap? I'm surprised lasers aren't shooting out of his eyes in any of them.

@Qommie@CollegeWolf I think the title of that picture should be. "I... AM... PUNTER!!!"
