When I saw this on my news feed I wondered who was gonna go out a giant nycfc scarf on it.. but then I figured the artist wouldn't like that.. so don't do it.
Team photo op here would be cool like footy said
I want a GIANT scarf on it. They put that girl in front of the Raging Bull and that ruined the artists original intent.
Fearless girl was another art installation though. I think that's different than dressing up someone else's art installation without permission. If it's with permission and for a photo op.. I think that'd be great. But otherwise, leave it be and maybe add a scarf in post.
I don't think that's right. It was guerrilla art. No sponsor. No permits. Just created by the artist and dropped in the dead of night.

I believe he was referring to the fearless girl.
Regardless it's still art.. despite the reason for it being commissioned. Much more so than draping a giant scarf on someone else's work.
On March 7, 2017, a bronze sculpture by Kristen Visbal, Fearless Girl, was installed facing Charging Bull.[19] It was commissioned to advertise for an index fund that comprises gender-diverse companies that have a relatively high percentage of women among their senior leadership and installed in anticipation of International Women's Day the following day. It depicts a girl four-foot (1.2 m) high, promoting female empowerment.[20] After Di Modica filed complaints about Fearless Girl, it was removed in November 2018 and relocated to outside the New York Stock Exchange. A plaque with footprints was placed on the original site of Fearless Girl.[21]

Serious hustle, speed and presence of mind from the official on this 97 yard touchdown play: changed direction twice, stayed out of the way, ran part of it backwards and then stopped dead on the goal line - where he was first to arrive - in case he needed to make a call.

I almost posted that replay in the amazing plays thread!
This was a great sports weekend, though much more stressful than necessary outside of NYCFC.
Agreed. I don't like our pair of football teams transitioning from big leads to onside kick recovery.
In random news, apparently you can spill about 3 ounces of Diet Coke on, under and around a Mac Mini and attached keyboard and experience no negative effects.
Tell that to my Apple TV remote, which I just replaced with a nice shiny new one for no particular reason LOL
PS. My old remote is available for April Fools Day duty, should you want to perplex a loved one with a randomly scrolling Apple Remote!
