Weekend Quiz Answers

By: Laurie | October 19th, 2008

If you haven’t yet tried to figure out the answers to our Weekend Quiz, stop by this post, then come back here for the answers.

Yeah, I think I did make most of these too easy. I’ll make it up to you next week.

Also, I really like the idea of a tattoo-only quiz. If you have ideas, send links to photos to laurie[at]theoffside[dot]com.

Photo 1

Marco Materazzi, InterMilan.
This one was way too easy.

---

Photo 2

Ludovic Giuly, Paris St. Germain
I thought more people would get this, given that Giuly has played in leagues all over the place. Apparently his face isn’t defined by his smile.

---

Photo 3

Alessandro del Piero, Juventus
I knew everybody would get this one. ADP’s sideburns are ADP.

---

Photo 4

Daniele de Rossi, AS Roma
What was funny was that, even given that I’m a big Lyon fan, I didn’t see the resemblance to Karim Benzema till somebody else mentioned it. I guess when you’ve seen one buzz cut, you’ve seen them all.

---

Photo 5

Jeremy Toulalan, Lyon
To me, Toulalan’s chin defines his face. Apparently not too many people see what I see. Or maybe you also need the nose to provide perspective.

---

Photo 6

Lorik Cana, Olympique de Marseille
Was Cana too obscure? Apparently so. This is the only photo in the short history of Weekend Quiz that was not guessed by anybody.

---

Photo 7

Pato, AC Milan
I considered doing a mouth photo that included the braces, but that would really have given it away.

---

Photo 8

Yoann Gourcuff, Bordeaux.
Yes, this is the AC Milan photo from the Dolce and Gabbana catalog. I still consider him a Ligue 1 guy.
(Coincidentally, our HABs Offside blogger Ivanna Ballar has put up an all-Gourcuff post today. Stop by for more fun with Yoann.)

  See, I knew all the Italians (and I count Gorcouf as one due to his last season at Milan) and none of the French, because I know nearly nothing of Ligue 1. Maybe next time you could separate them?

  Is it sad that I recognized Toulalan’s chin? Am I that obsessed?

  Mele, I did that on purpose to draw a bigger audience. So, in a word… No.

  Alex, I forgot! I could have done Boca or Freddy Adu, couldn’t I?

  I think I should get a gold star for getting not only the player (Gourcuff), but also the source. Yay Me!
