Massive Photos: The Crew Arrive at Port Columbus

The 2008 Columbus Crew returned home from MLS Cup, with the MLS Cup, and a bunch of bags under their eyes, only to meet a gaggle of supporters, news media, and other random people with extremely nice cameras. As one of those latter groups, I took it upon myself to snap some shots, here's what I got:



It was a very "special" win for this guy...

Some of the Supporters on hand.

And a few more.

Mayor Michael Coleman helped Crew Assistant(?) Coach Robert Warzycha bring the Phil F. Anschutz trophy home to Columbus. No word on if Mayor Coleman's wife was able to get her wish of filling the entire thing with Margarita Mix.

The fact this man can stand after the beating he took this season is commendable. Alejandro Moreno os a tough son of a gun...
"OMG Danny, someone is taking your picture...or maybe they're taking mine?"

Eddie Gaven, minus beard, signs autographs for Crew fans with facial hair.

He's fast, he's quick, his hat is made of knit...
Emmanuel, Emmanuel....
Mayor Coleman, a man of the people.

"Why the hell is 'Lost' coming back for another season? And shouldn't it technically be called 'Found'?"

Bob Rifle explains to the Mayor why he feels gun control is a bad idea.

Brad Evans...we're all crossing fingers for you in the expansion draft...

Mohawk, Ipod, Pillow. Andy Iro is set for whatever life throws at him, such as random naptime, or pillowfights with Mr. T.

Gino Padula actually broke a sweat carrying this thing around...

...so Ekpo and Junge came to the rescue.


The Polish Rifle talks to the local journos. Is this a sign of things to come?

And on that day, the Lord Jesus Christ, the God of Heaven and Earth, descended upon the earth and decreed that his f...oh wait, it's Frankie Hejduk.

Parting shot. I bought 15 of these by the way...
