Daniel Moore has become a hack

[Kaos]

His prints get worse and worse as the years go by.  Not impressed at all with "The Runback" -- his latest AU themed piece.  The only thing of his I own is Bo Over the Top.  It's detailed and beautiful. 

Runback?  Meh. Not so much. 

Gus looks like Herman Muenster. The sideline is poorly done. Davis is a wreck.  The only thing that's done well is the gump that dominates the middle of the picture.  Looks like a rush job by a junior high art student to me. Terrible.

I know this has probably been addressed, but I hate his gimmick of putting the score on the jerseys.  Bo wore 34. Nobody else forever and amen.  I know that's what we scored, but I don't want to see a 34 jersey in the background of the Auburn sidelines.

FWIW, I just realized Bo Over the Top shows 23 and 22 on the sidelines.  I always just assumed that was Fullwood.  Duh, he wasn't even there yet.  22 was Danny Robinson (who?) and 23 was Tim James. Jay Jacobs (not pictured) wore 71. Never really made the score connection.

He moved Bo's hand and added the two guys in the background.  Also made Stan Gay look like he was paying attention when he was clearly not.  Hmm.. Also positions 97 as if he should have made the stop.  Bo was much higher and over that crimpson clown, a more obvious TD than the painting would make it appear.

The only Moore print my family has ever owned my Dad won in a fishing tournament.  Sold it before we left the parking lot.

I've had Bo Over the Top (aka The Goal Line Dive) since 84 or so.  It's been on the wall of every office I've ever had.  It is the only Moore print I have and the only one I will ever have.  At the time I got it,  it was simply the counterpoint to that stupid ass bama/Penn State one that hung on every trailer wall in the entire state. 

I do have a set of the Greg Gamble ones from 2004, Zuniga's Legends on the Plains from 1985, a Cam Newton one from 2011 that I think is a Gamble and one or two others I can't remember that are at my other office.

You can tell he phoned "the runback" in...Davis' foot isn't even out of bounds.

The runback sucks. I think it's when Moore attempts facial features that it maybe goes south. You are right about over the top. That's close to real life minus some of the things that you pointed out.

I had just as soon have an enlarged photo of the play.

Can we do like his home school and bring a lawsuit against him?

And were so strapped for cash that the asst Coaches also have to carry Gatorade for the players.

That's how we hide the money now.

Gatorade might could sue him...

Gatorade might could sue him...

or the NAACP.

That's actually just like that in the original picture - he's holding one of those six pack carriers of Gatorade.

34-28 on the sidelines signifies the final score. I will never by a print from that asshat.

I thought this particular piece was a goodn.
