The handicapped person is used in many of ICA's commercials. While I agree that the use of him in these commercials can be offending, I don't think morrow should be hated for putting it in the OP. How do you see it being offending? And to who? Because the guy with downs is an actor doing alot of plays when he isn't doing these ICA commercials. He isn't forced to do the commercials on TV. And the guy is an awesome dude from what I've seen from interviews with him.

He's actually part of ICAs official advertisement campaign. Who is, the person in the picture? If so then that is kind of irrelevant.... the point I'm trying to make is not that the handicapped person in the picture is not part of the buisness or campaign, it is that this is all a whole elaborate joke and then that thrown at the end just for a laugh, i'm pretty sure this is just a joke, and if it is then why would that be justifiably correct to have that picture? I'm saying that is if this all just a joke then that picture at the end is just wrong, even if it is just for shits and giggles....
Hey, if ICA can pull it off on national TV, I think it's quite fine adding a picture from that commercial series. It's not like any single swede hasn't seen it yet. Putting it out there should be rather be seen as a favor to folks with downs as the campaign serves to humanize the character.

What? The picture resembles the crew in the commercial thus making it more seemingly as the brand ICA. Has nothing to do with morals, ethics or shit. Thats not the point. It would have been offensive if there was a handicaped person completely randomly with no attachment to the post in the end.
Whether the series itself is offensive or not is another question. And even in the series they are rather humble towards the character. Giving a much more positive and realistic view on someone with mental deficiency instead of rendering them as useless and pointless beings.

Can you only see handicapped people as an object to be ridiculed? If he's part of ICA's marketing campaign, and MorroW is trying to make this post seem legit, it makes sense to use a picture that ICA might use for marketing. If it was just the two other dudes you'd have no problem, but because YOU see downs people a certain way you assume that things must be that way.
I think you're the simple minded one here.

He got really famous and he was damn funny in the commercials, I personally think Ica has some of the best commercials.

I can't help but think it's funny for anything to be sponsored by a grocery store, but it IS cool that eSports is attracting sponsors from all over the place. I also really like that it is an all Swedish team, hope they can resist the Korean fever.
good luck ICA! (hmm that sounds weird, like I'm cheering on the store, they should have an actual team name with ICA included. such as LG-IM and Fnatic/EG.RaidCall)
*successfully trolled*

It's a joke...

Trolling aside, This would actually be a pretty good team if they teamhoused it up and trained like madmen lol. What has Morrow been up to lately anyway?
|
This was funny once i figured out it was a troll. (I must be Romanian or something)
|
Haha awesome xD.
Good one MorroW!
|
Would be great if there was a whole new layer to this troll because Morrow knew that Naniwa was actually getting a personal sponsorship with ICA or something. Would just be so funny if that was announced.

So essentially you're offended on behalf of other people who might be offended?
