    I don't know if this has been done here before but I'll give it a go anyway.

    Post a pic of a sportsperson with some Photoshop trickery on it and we'll try to guess who it is.

    The usual rules, whoever guesses right gets to post the next one. If it's an obscure person/sport maybe give a hint.

    I'll start it off with an easy one:

    Yep. Jorge Campos.

    Fire away with one if you have some paint program to do it. (Or nick one off the internet - a blurred photo, not Photoshop :D)

    Yep. There's not too many people that tower over Ronaldo like that.

    Here's the picture for the record. Crouch is hilarious looking.

    It did for a bit but the cancer band and the yellow jersey were big clues. That man wears a yellow jersey going to bed. :D

    CJ van der Linde or maybe Gurthro Steenkamp?


    Outside shot on Peter Manley although I don't think the face looks right.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 299 ✭✭ZiggyStardust


    No, an individual sport.
    Ok, the competition he was competing in this weekend, he won in 1995.

    That should help,

    I don't want to give away either yet as it will give away too much.

    He has been around the block a lot in his career, in fact he is the most experienced person in his sport. He's still competing too.
