The Coach had put together the perfect
team
for the Baltimore Ravens. The
only thing 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 the West Bank. In one corner of the background, he
spotted a young Israeli soldier with a truly incredible arm. He threw a
hand-grenade straight into a 15th story window 100 yards
away. KABOOM!
He threw another hand-grenade 75
yards away, right into a chimney. KA-BLOOEY!
Then, he threw another at a passing car going 90 mph. BULLS-EYE!
"I've 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 Ravens go on to win the Super Bowl.
The young man 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 woman says." 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 Baltimore!!!!
