I know over 6 years, I've looked at over 10,000 pictures plus (heck, I've downloaded that many..;) Now I'm looking for just 1.
It's a takeoff on the Normal Rockwell 'Thanksgiving' picture (the one where the birds in the middle of a long table, and everyone's looking around) but this one was done with all football players (American style, with helmets). The bird's been replaced (I seem to remember), by the helmet of the opposing team.
I've searched on about 15-20 terms, but can't find it. The picture's probably somewhere between 1-2 years old.
Does this ring a bell with anyone? I know someone who wants to see it. I'll give full credit, of course.

I can't find it either, but if it helps with the search, I'm pretty sure the painting you're referring to is the one called "Freedom From Want", part of the "Four Freedoms" series that NR painted way back when, and which appeared as part of his long series of covers for the Saturday Evening Post magazine. Good luck with the search.
