Oh how did I miss this gem!?
So you have asked a fellow member to ask me what a moron is, well, let's look into this a bit before I answer okay?
To start with you post a stylized picture of Jarome Iginla and since you are bringing hockey into this debate, you must be an avid fan of the game as I am. So, it is obvious that you are using Iginla as an example of a moron - lets see what achievements Mr. Iginla has to his credit to be considered a moron;
Memorial Cup Champion with the Kamloops Blazers, 1993
Memorial Cup Champion with the Kamloops Blazers, 1994
George Parsons Trophy winner, Memorial Cup Championship 1994
1st round draft pick (11th overall), 1995 NHL entry draft
WHL Player of the Year, 1995-96
CHL First Team All-Star, 1995-96
World Junior Champion, 1996
World Junior Championship leading scorer, 1996
World Junior Championship Outstanding Forward award, 1996
World Junior Championship First Team All-Star, 1996
NHL Rookie leading scorer, 1996-97
Art Ross trophy winner (NHL points scoring leader), 2001-02
Rocket Richard trophy winner (NHL goal scoring leader), 2001-02
Lester B. Pearson Award, 2001-02
Olympic Gold Medal winner (scored the gold medal wining goal vs. US), 2002
Rocket Richard trophy winner (NHL goal scoring leader), 2003-04
King Clancy Memorial Award, 2003-04
Flames Captain, Western Confrence Champions, 2003-04
World Cup of Hockey champion, 2003-04
Flames Captain, Northwest Division Champions! 2005-06
Olympic team member, 2006
Olympic Gold Medal winner (assisted on the winning goal vs. US), 2010
At least 30 goals in 10 consecutive seasons (only 10 players in NHL history have done so)
Two time 50 goal scorer
6 time NHL All-Star
Calgary Flames all-time goals leader
Calgary Flames all-time points leader
3 time NHL First Team All-Star
1 time NHL Second Team All-Star
498 goals (as you know, 500 is a very rare and respected milestone)
1,035 points (as you know, 1000 is a very rare and respected milestone)
And there is so much more that could be mentioned.
Now, before I get to answering the question "what is a moron", let's also look at the stylized picture of Iginla you posted. Being an avid fan on the game as you are, you would know that this picture came out during the 2003-04 playoffs in which the Calgary Flames and the Vancouver Canucks (who were the Division Champions) met in the first round. Not only did the Flames win that series but guess who scored a pivitol goal in the final game, was named the games first star, and who the Canucks head coach (following the game) said that it was the greatest single player effort he had ever seen? Let me help you jbenny - Jarome Iginla. Maybe not exactly the best picture you could have selected eh?
Sorry my friend, no points for you this round.
So, to answer the question that you have asked;
One word : YOU

LOL, after all the outlined fact that was showed, and all you have to say is flames suck? Pathetic...
You know the saying, do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
So I won't start arguing with you. But I want to give you one needed advice though, get this book:

All over an AMG Label. Really
It would be a Love / Hate relationship if you guys lived in Japan. It's a beautiful country and they have an amazing Exotic, JDM, VIP, US custom car scene here and hot sexy women.
Being a Poser is considered "Faddish" here from BMWs to MBs. You will find at the dealerships cars that are 320s or 430s labeled with 500 badges, 500s labeled 55, or BMW 740s labeled 760s but the price/stats in the window will state i.e. a 430 with 500 badge.
Point is, not every country or person honors the "AMG Poser" guidelines and being here in Japan you would be too overwhelmed to try and post about every Poser you see wouldn't be worth the time and effort. Guess we choose our own Battles.
Here's mine
In keeping with the tradition of controversy, I'm going to put a W209 label on my w208 trunk because now I have a new bumper that gives it a W209 similar Look...

Got off on the wrong foot and would like to apologize....Most of my post was written out of anger because I felt like I was being singled out and attacked so my testosterone and adrenalin kicked inI am aware about the AMG Poser Rules but it’s my car and I am happy with the way it is... Rules or no Rules..At the end of the day It's my car, My Life, My Money and I'm happy".

Really? I don't remember seeing any De-badged pictures. Did you do like me and remove the hood emblem as well?
I prefer my cars clean shaved and my woman unshaven to partially shaved.
Just fishing for another argument...lol

All my pics are old and pre-Kleemann, I'm going to put new pics up but wanted to wait until the new wheels and Vorsteiner spoiler are installed. The 209 doesnt have a hood star, just the flat emblem. I did change the grill but still have the star on it, I like the look of it on the 209.

I went from hood star, to flat emblem, to emblem-less. Was wondering if you also removed your flat hood emblem and just left the grill. I think that would look 6iKK.
The Last of my mods should be here in a few weeks. Can't wait
Was bored last night so was entertaining the idea of NOS but probably not.
Well I better get back to the W208 forum before they call me a traitor.
