Pepsi Max Pose Off: Carlos Bocanegra vs. Jozy Altidore & Maurice Edu
We’re aware that Clint Dempsey was there too, but we omitted him from the comp because his bedroom eyes weren’t staring straight at us. Or the camera. Either way. Oh and, soz about the quality of pics. We figured you could all get past it for the sake of our opinion sourcing post. Image Credit: Twitter & Tumblr.
Today’s USMNT carbonated beverage pose off is a battle between brawn and bromance. At left, we have Carlos Bocanegra looking as American as a cherry tree just before it’s picked and processed into pie. And those arms? Strong enough to carry five grannies in each across the street. His silent but deadly stance has even inspired us to start recycling next year. Go us.
Jozy Altidore and Maurice Edu are playing the devil’s advocates to Boca’s camera lighting heavenly halo in their still frame on the right, which we have mixed feelings about. Jozy is clearly a contemplative thinker type, and we’re wondering what he’s thinking about or if it’s us. Edu, on the other hand, blatantly isn’t. He’s actually quite unapologetic in his hot playa position, which we’re not totally hatin’. However, if their objective was to tag team that photographer’s lens in naked unison, then we’re hard pressed to find any angles that illustrate their spoils of victory.
Is Carlos winning your vote with his ‘less is more’ attitude, or is it double your pleasure, fun and pimp juice with Jozy and Maurice for you?


Very happy to see your article, I very much to like and agree with your point of view.

Boca always and forever!! NO competition here at all!! Does that picture come on the bottle of Pepsi?? If so, that is a very smart (and super sexy) marketing ploy. May have to go out and get me as many Pepsi Max bottles that I can find if that is the case!

We all know how good the Boca Buns are, but Maurice Edu is one fine piece of milk chocolate! Whooo! I'm in love!
Agreed. From these photos alone as evidence, I pick Maurice Edu (sorry Jozy, didn't see you standing there)!
