Thick Footballers

[norwaytips]

I know that footballers are thick, or at least some of 'em. Mr Beckham isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I just read this, so had to post it as a quote.

'Miami Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder has admitted not knowing people speak English in London.

The NFL player might want to check a map before he gets on board a plane for Sunday's prestige game against the New York Giants at Wembley Stadium.

Crowder, who comes from Atlanta in Georgia, may be praised on the field, but confessed geography was not his strong point.

He admitted he did not know until now where London was - or that Londoners spoke English.

"I couldn't find London on a map if they didn't have the names of the countries," he said.

"I swear to God. I don't know what nothing is. I know Italy looks like a boot. I learned that."

Crowder added: "I know (Washington Redskins linebacker) London Fletcher. We did a football camp together. So I know him.

"That's the closest thing I know to London. He's black, so I'm sure he's not from London. I'm sure that's a coincidental name."

The Miami Dolphins are play the New York Giants at Wembley this Sunday in the first NFL regular-season game to be played outside the United States.':D

LMFAO. Stomper will love it.

I weep for the educational system of the United States. A generation of blathering idiots growing up watching cribs on MTV and are one foot short of being slobbering retards unable to feed themselves...

Ok that was extreme, but seriously, what is wrong with people. Many Americans probably don't know the name of the planet they live on or that there are other countries on it.

he's the clinton portis of the dolphins; he was just joking.

If that is a sample of English, then he's right; we don't speak English in London.:eek:

Oh I dont know, its an interesting philosophical point. How can anyone truly apprehend the nature of true nothingness?
