> Andy Reid had put together the perfect Eagles team, missing only a stud

> One night he was watching a war-zone scene in Iraq on TV. In the
> background of one shot, he saw a young Iraqi soldier with a truly
> incredible arm. He threw a hand grenade straight into a 15th story window
> 100 yards away. KABOOM!
>
> He threw another grenade 75 yards, pitching it right into a chimney.
> KA-BLOOEY!
>
> Then he threw another into a car passing at 90 mph. BULL'S-EYE!
>
> "I've got to get this guy!" Reid shouted. "He's got the perfect arm!"
>
> He finds him and brings him to the States and teaches him the great game
> of football. The Eagles go on to win the Super Bowl.

>
> "Mom," he says into the phone, "I just won the Super Bowl!"
>
> "I don't want to talk to you," the old Muslim woman snaps. "You deserted
> us. You are not my son!"
>
> "You don't understand, Mother," the QB 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. The
> elections are a joke, 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, then tearfully adds, "I will never forgive you for
> making us move to Philadelphia!"
