I haven't seen the other cover, and I'm having difficulty bringing it up. He looks tense and perhaps focussed, but i prefer a smiling, confident look.

(i just read the blurb beneath the picture and realize that represents their relationship very well). i guess i prefer the happier picture of two friends competing to the scarier one of a fierce competitor. it depends on the msssage that is being sent, comraderie or competition. on the sports illustrated cover he looks focussed and threatening. he seems ready to win. on the mens journal cover both guys look happy and friendly although michael seems to be pictured as the one with the upper hand, possibly the winner, since he has his elbow on ryan’s shoulder.
