I'm confident even if we go with "Locker Room Cancer Survivors" someone is going to scream and bitch about us being insensitive to actual cancer victims and such.

And you know what? To those people: lighten the f*** up and enjoy life a little.

I do think there is a distinction between calling them “cancer survivors” and “locker room cancer survivors “ that is not trivial.

Very true. I mean, I'm for that distinction and it makes sense. And I'm in no way trying to make this a political thing, but I'm not catering to the hyper-left wing nutjobs who are looking for a reason to spew outrage and will turn anything into a cause célèbre. I'm thinking specifically of a person years ago who, when Person A mentioned going clubbing and Person B made a comment about "try not to get any baby seals!" this person went into a total meltdown over oh, you think clubbing baby seals is funny? How would you like it if someone walked into your home and clubbed your kids to death? and just :loony::loony::loony::loony::loony::loony:.

We're not catering to that group.

Ok.

I just wanted to be respectful of actual cancer survivors and those in the fight now. I think we can do that with this concept, which is hilarious.

I agree. [Which is why I mentioned it.] Though I do like using all the current players and all their alleged shortfalls, too. I think that would be hilarious.

I don’t know if animation is even an option.

A simpler version is something like a logo on the top (overlay) with the Blues Stanley Cup Playoffs logo and a blue ribbon, with the words “Locker Room Cancer Survivor”

This would be overlaid different pictures of players. I’m not sure if it gets too wordy, but if there is room there could be unique text on the bottom where for example: picture of Bouwmeester, the bottom would say “Washed Up”. The picture of Schenn would say “PP specialist only”. Etc.

Do we have anyone that can do These? There are so many times there were great ideas for avatars and no one who could put them together. Also, what ARE the limitations for avatars on the Mandatory hosted site?

I'd think a yelling Yeo, or Yeo "I don't know what to do" presser image followed by a picture of Berube with a quote, then a pic of Binny, "Do I look nervous?" with a playoff logo would be a decent one - I don't have access/know how to the software to do it myself...

Edit: Links for pictures/quotes I had in mind

My contribution. Bendak likes this. I would need to go back and resize to make it work if people like it. We could sub the text with other pictures.

Maybe one of O'Reilly that says, "Locker room cancer." Followed of course with "Bendak likes this.":
Excellent! I like this one too.

I don't know how to make Avatars, but I just want to use the 2019 Blues playoff logo with the caption, "Do I Look Nervous?"

My avatar from the old forum was animated and was a lot more sarcastic than it looks now. I'd like to move on from this one.

I was really looking forward to playoff avatars playfully needling that canucks fan with the backwards name. :D

I was just going to suggest this in here as well. Somebody created a Bendak Appreciation thread a while back, and I said that if we somehow make the playoffs, we should do "Bendak Likes this" avatars. I was thinking For the Bendak Likes this pic it would just be the thumbs up logo and "Bendak (above) Likes This (below)".

Something Like this, or perhaps the HF thumbs up in a better resolution.

Some of my ideas on the different avatars

Maroon Offside> Bendak Likes this > Stanley Cup Playoffs 2019
Jaybo Angle Play > Bendak Likes this > Stanley Cup Playoffs 2019
Brayden Schenn Drop Pass...
Diabeetus (with picture of Bendak's table)... This could be Bendak's personal avatar
Fabbri Healthy Scratch....
Captain Creampuff (picture of Benn on Petro)...
Maroon Jam Play...
Jake Allen...

JBo slap pass?
Schwartz misses the open net?
Blues take a too many men penalty?

Or are these not specific enough to the 2018-19 season?

Add: drop pass in the defensive zone, Blues blow 2-goal lead, Maroon kills an offensive chance
