>>> The coach had put together the perfect team for the Detroit Lions. The only> thing that was missing was a good quarterback. He had scouted all the> colleges and even the Canadian and European Leagues, but he couldn't find a ringer> who could ensure a Super Bowl win.>> Then one night while watching CNN he saw a war-zone scene in Afghanistan. In> one corner of the background, he spotted a young Afghan Muslim soldier with a> truly incredible arm. He threw a hand-grenade straight into a 15th story> window 100 yards away.>> KABOOM!>> He threw another h and-grenade 75 yards away, right into a chimney.>> KA-BLOOEY!>> Then he threw another at a passing car going 90 mph.>> BULLS-EYE!>> "I have GOT to get this guy!" Coach said to himself. "He has the perfect> arm!">> So, he brings him to the States and teaches him the great game of football.> And the Lions go on to win the Super Bowl The young Afghan is hailed as the> great hero of football, and when the coach asks him what he wants, all the> young man wants is to call his mother.>> "Mom," he says into the phone, "I just won the Super Bowl!">> "I don't want to talk to you, the old Muslim woman says. "You deserted us.> You are not my son!">> "I don't think you understand, Mother," the young man pleads "I've won the> greatest sporting event in the world. I'm here among thousands of my adoring> fans.">> "No! Let me tell you!" his mother retorts. "At this very moment, there are> gunshots all around us. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble. Your two> brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week, and I have to keep> your sister in the house so she doesn't get raped!">> The old lady pauses, and then tearfully says, "I will NEVER forgive you for> making us move to Detroit.>
