Career Opportunities
By Mitch Berg
On the one hand, Channing Crowder isn’t the crown jewel in America’s geography education crown:
Maybe he was joking, but gregarious Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder confessed today he didn’t know until Tuesday that people spoke English in London.
Crowder, a former Florida Gator and Atlanta native, apparently isn’t sure where the plane is headed when it takes off this afternoon for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants in Wembley Stadium.
“I couldn’t find London on a map if they didn’t have the names of the countries,” Crowder said. “I swear to God. I don’t know what nothing is. I know Italy looks like a boot. I learned that.
Downside: Not good. It’s a good thing he has a career in sports.
Upside: If he gets injured and has to retire, he might have a career as a Democratic Party staffer.

Bush can’t find New Orleans or South Waziristan on a map.

Fortunately, next year the Dolphins are outsourcing all their player-personnel decisions to Blackwater.
We might still suck, but we’ll avoid all that pesky oversight.

next year the Dolphins
Wow. I’m trying to remember the last time I thought about the ‘fins.
Sometimes I wish American football was like Brit football – every year, the bottom team in the league gets demoted to the minors, and the top minor-league team moves up to the bigs.
THAT might be fun.
Hmm. There’s a post, there…

Angryclown thinks that our immigration policy should be similar. Lazy people who have been here 12 generations get deported in favor of energetic immigrants.

I suppose if he can’t get a job as a Dem staffer, he can get into Regent University.
Maybe were all just misunderestimating him.. Or maybe, fool me once, Mr. Chowder, fool me, you won’t get fooled again.

PEEV agrees with AC.
Prescott Bush’s family could easily be first on the plane.
