Lordy. “Gay”? “Traitor”? Homophobia AND primitive nationalism all in one statement! We don’t have “traitors” in this nation, criticism is allowed, but your homophobic trolling has got you banned from commenting here.

the best olympic graphics came from munich, montreal pretty much copied and adapted that four years later.

you voting against these olympics means you voting against canadian hockey. traitor to the nation.

John, thank you for the backup. Every time I see one of these graphics – and they are everywhere now – I just cringe. There’s also the 2010 logo, which I didn’t show here but will include in another post. It’s an Inuit inukshuk sacrilegiously made into a cartoon person, without any acknowledgement of the fact the Inukshuk has little to do with Vancouver or even British Columbia other than that there’s one downtown. Not a shred of critical thinking or design sense has gone into these games, from start to finish. The 3 furry mascots are a lot better, I admit, but they too play fast and loose with quasi-faux-First Nations mythology, and I’d take the Montreal 76 Amik beaver mascot over them any day.
