We think the addition of Simpson will increase his lateral mobility.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Belichick said that Jerry Jones was &quot;more than eager&quot; to accept Bundchen in exchange for Simpson and the draft choices, because &quot;Jerry said he still blames Simpson for distracting Romo from the playoffs a couple of years back.  Jerry also says that Bundchen is the only quarterback girlfriend in the NFL whose legs are long enough to stretch across that big new scoreboard of his.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When asked whether Simpson&#39;s long mane of blonde hair, leggy supermodel body, and &quot;come hither eyes&quot; would distract the Patriots from their mission of returning to the Super Bowl, he replied, &quot;I&#39;d rather look at her across the field than Plaxico Burress, and I think I&#39;m speaking for most if not all of the team when I say that.&quot;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;http://feeds.feedburner.com/FunniestBlogInAmerica&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://funniestbloginamerica.blogspot.com/2009/08/in-surprise-move-patriots-trade-gisele.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michael Levin)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6276350964085636379.post-2561664965021839786</guid><pubDate>Mon, 31 Aug 2009 22:19:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-08-31T16:02:34.506-07:00</atom:updated><title>Sick Kids Hold Telethon To Benefit Jerry Lewis</title><description>&quot;Have you seen Jerry lately?&quot; Freddy Johnston, age 7, asked a hastily assembled Las Vegas news conference.  &quot;He looks horrible.

It&#39;s time for us to give back.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Johnston suffers from a rare form of leukemia called Fernofel&#39;s Syndrome, which has no known symptoms and no known causes and has never been responsible for the death of a child but does require approximately $78,000 per year in prescription drugs. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Jerry Lewis has done so much for children,&quot; Johnston said.  &quot;But he looks worse than any of us.  The idea that he would stay up all night again just to help us--we just can&#39;t handle it.  So we&#39;re going to take care of him this year.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Johnston said that if his parents let him stay up late, he and the other sick kids hoped to raise &quot;somewhere in the area of $4.25 for Mr. Lewis.  It&#39;s not much, but maybe he can buy some Advil or something.

Hsu was listed on the team roster as being 14.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I am truly sorry to have brought shame upon my family and nation,&quot; Hsu said, sporting razor stubble and a partially visible shoulder tattoo apparently depicting a Budweiser label. &quot;I did not understand the rules of Little League. I thought that since I was little--I am just over five feet tall--I qualified.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hsu said that he thought Little League was similar to 6 feet-and-under basketball leagues, which are popular in the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;My children kept saying, &#39;Daddy, Daddy, you are so old compared with your teammates,&quot; Hsu told reporters. &quot;I did find it odd that none of them smoked or were married, just me.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hsu was to have pitched in the championship game in the Asia bracket for a Taiwan team considered, until his dismissal, the favorite in the annual event. He had pitched Taiwan to sixteen consecutive world championships, a fact that admittedly had raised eyebrows with Little League fans around the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;It&#39;s a relief,&quot; Hsu admitted. &quot;Playing with 12- and 13-year-olds is hard. They swing and miss, they cry. They win, they make fart jokes. Until we talked, they knew nothing about where babies come from.

It would be the least I could do, because if I kill myself, there’s no telling who I would kill next.”&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;http://feeds.feedburner.com/FunniestBlogInAmerica&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://funniestbloginamerica.blogspot.com/2009/08/plaxico-seeks-lighter-sentence-on.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michael Levin)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6276350964085636379.post-4757602980241499119</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Aug 2009 21:32:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-08-19T14:43:15.560-07:00</atom:updated><title>Disspirited Terrell Owens &quot;Can&#39;t Buy A Headline&quot;</title><description>Bills running back Terrell Owens was admitted to a Buffalo, New York hospital with &quot;mild to severe depression over his inability to get any attention from the football world,&quot; team spokesman Ed Gurt told a hastily assembled Buffalo news conference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;He&#39;s just feeling down,&quot; Gurt told reporters.  &quot;He&#39;s come out to the practice field naked, diverted a busload of Make-A-Wish kids to a nude dance club, where he had them shower the dancers with hundred dollar bills, and threatened the lives of seven world leaders.  And he can&#39;t buy a headline, what with Favre and Vick getting all the ink.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Owens is used to a much higher level of attention, Gurt said, in cities with more volatile media outlets and fan bases.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Here in Buffalo, we don&#39;t get too high and we don&#39;t get too low,&quot; Gurt said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Owens was &quot;doing better&quot; on the unlocked unit, Gurt indicated, and has abandoned plans to go over Niagara Falls &quot;in nothing but a jockstrap&quot; and to demand that the other 10 men on the offensive unit &quot;sit down on the turf&quot; while he runs plays against other teams in single combat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Terrell will be fine,&quot; Gurt said.  &quot;At some point, Brett and Michael Vick will fade into the background and Terrell will get his regular share of attention on SportsCenter.  Until then, well, Buffalo plus Terrell Owens equals the sound of crickets.&quot;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;http://feeds.feedburner.com/FunniestBlogInAmerica&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://funniestbloginamerica.blogspot.com/2009/08/disspirited-terrell-owens-cant-buy.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michael Levin)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6276350964085636379.post-1299457375576446197</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Aug 2009 20:43:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-08-19T13:51:32.034-07:00</atom:updated><title>O.J.

Simpson told a hastily assembled Ely State Prison, Ely, Nevada news conference.  &quot;They lied about my DNA.

Otherwise, I would never do anything mean to an animal.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When a reporter pointed out that Philadelphia quarterback Michael Vick was responsible for dog torture, not Favre, Favre whistled and sighed in relief.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I get confused,&quot; Favre admitted.  &quot;But I&#39;ll say this.  I couldn&#39;t be prouder than to be wearing the uniform of the San Diego Redskins.  I mean the Pittsburgh Cowboys.  I mean, um, the Vikings.  That&#39;s it, the Vikings.&quot;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;http://feeds.feedburner.com/FunniestBlogInAmerica&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://funniestbloginamerica.blogspot.com/2009/08/aging-favre-apologizes-for-torturing.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michael Levin)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6276350964085636379.post-9188278427660107989</guid><pubDate>Sat, 15 Aug 2009 01:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-08-14T18:52:06.446-07:00</atom:updated><title>Aryan Nation, Klan, Mexican Mafia, 7 Porn Stars Endorse ObamaCare</title><description>President Obama&#39;s struggling health care bill received a series of unexpected--and perhaps not entirely welcome--shots in the arm when a variety of socially unacceptable entities gave the plan their full endorsement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;We love ObamaCare,&quot; Don Bonger, Chairman of the National Alliance of Unacceptable Societies, Entities, and Associations, an alliance of racist groups, criminal gangs, and porn stars, told a hastily assembled Boise, Idaho news conference.  &quot;It&#39;s got something for all of us.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bonger told reporters that many members of the various entities that make up NAUSEA &quot;don&#39;t pay taxes, won&#39;t pay taxes, hate foreign doctors, or have nasty diseases&quot; that ObamaCare would cover.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;We hate America,&quot; Bonger said.  &quot;We see this healthcare plan as a way to bankrupt the nation within five to ten years, while giving our members free treatment for everything from cooties to swine flu.  Having this healthcare system in place almost makes up for the fact that the President is--well, everybody knows what he is.&quot;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;http://feeds.feedburner.com/FunniestBlogInAmerica&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://funniestbloginamerica.blogspot.com/2009/08/aryan-nation-klan-mexican-mafia-7-porn.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michael Levin)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
