@ESBG - I agree that Ostrich pic is a better comparison.  I didn't make the side-by-side, though, so if someone is good with a photo editor please post it and I'll change the OP.  There's also a better llama one out there, but the webserver it's on doesn't allow external linking..

@ACF - I agree.  Just trying to lighten the mood a little bit. ;D

Good stuff, my man, good stuff  :)

Glad people are enjoying it.  And while I personally think Pau looks more like a llama, I am shocked at how lopsided the voting has been!

Where are you, thou Gasostrich disciples?  Pledge your allegiance to the half bird, half barnyard animaloly that is Pau Gasol.
God bless and good night!

I voted for 'other'.  I've always thought he looked like the bird lady character from Kids in the Hall.  I can't find a picture, but for those of you who remember, i think it's dead on.

Ostrich, now that he's no longer sporting the full bushy llama-fur beard. Hit me like a ton of bricks during the Lakers-Cs telecast. Pau, the Christmas Ostrich.

TP for the post. Tremendous.

i think "the guy who choked when it mattered most (the finals)" is more appropriate  8)

And the guy who almost cried when he was blown out by 39 points works just as well.  :)

I went with the llama but I think on defense he looks like a roll of Charmin Ultra-soft triple ply toilet paper.
