Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
it appears that steroids have a large impact. Rough week for Merriman after getting clobbered by Jones-Drew.

[/ QUOTE ] the site says that they did not photoshop them... another forum i go on measured the distance between eyes, other facial features that don't change with steroid use, etc... and it should be real. What a lunatic. This explains a lot, mainly why he isn't good anymore. |
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Is that tatoo new?

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Even his beard got smaller.
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Hard to tell definitively, but it looks like classic moonface in the first pic.
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
And his unibrow went away.
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
He also looks so innocent and childlike in the second one.

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
this isn't baseball, where steroids can have a huge impact on ability to see the ball, make contact, generate a sound swing, etc
I doubt Merriman benefited at all from the juice |
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
lol

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
They look like two different people. Plus the 2nd pic seems like it is taken from further away which adds to the effect. This is as lame as examining random pictures of Bonds with no means to actually measure the size of his skull...just poor juxtaposition.

[/ QUOTE ] ok so why don't you just say you are a chargers fan. there is obviously a huge difference. look at the size of the man's head and neck. or maybe his SHOULDERS |

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Can someone make an morphing animation out of this to truly see the change? I would, except I don't have access to any animation programs at work.

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
So, these pictures looked unfair because it appeared like the second shot was intentionally made to appear smaller than it was. I was right, but it doesn't really change much. Here's what the pictures look like with their heads proportionate to each other.

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
i dont really see the difference. his shoulders are just relaxed in the 2nd picture. Also, the jersey he is wearing in the first picture make his shoulders look broader than they actually are.

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
His neck looks a lot bigger in the first one though...

Furthermore, the steroids Merriman were taking were probably for a specific purpose. I think you're out of your element on this one |

Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
look at his neck. in the first pic it is clearly angled out toward the bottom on both sides. in the second pic his neck clearly goes straight down. its hard to compare shoulders because the shirt in pic one is padded, but it seems like there is a significant different there.
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Not to mention he apparently got about 3 shades lighter. I'm not claiming that makes up the difference but shading and coloration absolutely do impact human perception. This is why you always see coloring differences between before and after pictures on weightloss programs and for acne meds and stuff like that. Darker is generally bigger.

[/ QUOTE ] if you had large traps you would know that when you tense/raise up your shoulders, it causes your neck to thicken in the manner we see in picture 1. In picture 2, it is fairly obvious that his shoulders are quite relaxed, which explain the straightness of his neck. not saying there is NO difference, just that is not as big as people seem to be making it. FWIW i am not a SD fan. |
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
indict him!
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
imo these pictures are more for entertainment than anything else. it's not like with Bonds where people are trying to use them as evidence proving that Merriman took steroids. We already know he did, this is just fun after the fact.
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
The sleeves of the jersey come out on the first pic.
Plus I think he is just more relaxed in the second. I do wonder how his skin became so light though. |
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
ash cloud
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Its a travesty that there wasn't steroid testing in place so we can know for sure whether or not he was using illegal substances.
Oh wait.. |
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
too soon <font color="white">but i loled anyway</font>
|
Re: Hilarious Before/After Pictures of Merriman
Pretty humorous that people think there isn't a difference in his appearance. His face, neck, and shoulders are all narrower.
FWIW, he looks healthier in the second picture. |
