Greg Wells in full 70's pimping mode. Chewing gum, looking like he's about to snot somebody. Classic.

Ray Biffin in the all-time #1 prototype shot for footballers who want to look utterly baffled in their card shot. The only thing that could have made it better was a look at his gap-tastic teeth.

Brent Crosswell took a moment out of robbing stagecoaches and tying maidens to train tracks to stand there and say "if you laugh at my mo I will tear out your throat". And who'd bet against him?
