Visual Rhetoric

I thought that there might be a few students (like me) that need to make just a few more posts on the blog. So, if you would like analyze this picture and identify what the author of this comic is implying with the rhetoric used you could get another post under your belt!

Steroids in baseball

When I first saw this picture I laughed. The author is obviously trying to get his point across that steroid use in baseball is being overlooked. The baseball player has a tatoo on his arm dedicated to his 'mom' implying that he's a mommas boy and is innocent, and maybe implying that he's a dufus and a meathead.

These are just a couple elements of this comic, so post your comments too!
