The Best Dunk 23 Faces of 2012

This may be your best picture of college basketball season so far, if only for the creepiness.  It takes a special human, with little to no self awareness, to blow up a picture of their bitter-beer face in an attempt intimidate college basketball players.  This large ginger freak face captured while Patric Young was dunking, could be loosely construed as a "dunk face," which might be one of my favorite things in all of sport.  There is something about the ferocity and pure ecstasy of a dunk that brings out very weird faces in athletes.  Let's take a look at the best dunk faces of 2012:
