Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Middle East Reacts To Redskins Hiring of Mike Shanahan (Video)

I didn't realize the Redskins had such a huge fan base in the middle east.

Star-divide

I had a lot of fun making this once I figured out how to use the captioning software. I plan on doing more of these as the drama news from Redskins Park continues.

Just as a disclaimer, this is no attempt to belitte what is happening in the Middle East. I would have just as easily picked a foreign French movie to do the fight between Portis and Campbell.

"It was one of those things where everyone in the building was suddenly excited again," Cerrato said. "And all the women in the building were the most excited. They couldn't believe we were getting the guy from "Dancing With the Stars."

wow

I see the point, and yes it could have been funny but as a veteran I think that some people will find this clip EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE. Where people are chanting religious sayings you are replacing them with something as pitiful as an American Football spoof, is just plain bad taste. Bad enough it’s coming from a Fans of a Team who has come under scrutiny just for having the name Washington Redskins. We have had a recent history of bad football, lets not add Cultural insensitivity to that as well. I have been a Skins Fan for over 25 years, so I agree with the message, thank god for change, but uh, could we just use different clips?

Thanks for the counterpoint, Shaffi3

Why does everything about the Middle East have to be so damn serious, Rick/Joe? Besides, we are a sports blog. We relish bad taste as long as there is a modicum of humor underlying it. This was totally appropriate for this forum. Its not like we are showing this in church, synagogue, or mosque. Please go away if you disagree.
