THE ANNUAL NFL CHRISTMAS PLAY

Scene 1:

Terrell Owens celebrated his 35th birthday on Sunday with a loss to the Pittsburg Steelers. But despite the loss, the Cowboys still made sure to celebrate their star's special day. Here is what transpired:


(Scene: The locker room. Owens' teammates gather around his locker and hand him a wrapped package.)


Owens: "Thank you for remembering my birthday, guys."
Romo: "No problem, buddy. We all chipped in. We think you'll like it."

(Shakes box. Holds it to his ear.)

Owens: "Hmm ... it seems light. I don't have a clue. I guess I'll just open it."

(Opens the package. Pulls out a paper containing that says, 8-5.)

Owens: "I don't get it. What is it?"
Witten: "That's our record dumb a$$! Look how far down we are compared to last year. That's terrible! We might not even make the playoffs. And it was all to make you happy!"
Owens: "Oh, my ... this ... this ...(sniff...sniff)... this is the greatest gift ever. Thank you, guys. Thank you so much."


Scene 2:




This past week, Plaxico Burress pleaded not guilty to gun possession, and firing an unlicensed weapon. Before the arraignment, Plaxico met with Al Sharpton to discuss strategy:

Al: So let me get this straight, you shot yourself with your own gun?
Plax: Yea, I think I'm in some deep doo doo this time.
Al: I got it! We'll just say this is another example of the white man always blaming the black man every time a gun goes off.
Plax: But Al, I was the one who shot myself
Al: Then we'll say this is just black on black crime exploited by the government to make the Black man look stupid..
Plax: Dude, it WAS stupid. I shot myself.
Al: Then we'll end it with, "Plaxico is well educated, well behaved, and was well dressed on that night so he was obviously a target." I mean, it's not like you were wearing sweat pants and slippers right? (laughs heartily)
Plax: (looks down slowly) Uh, yea, I was.
Al: YOU'RE SCREWED! Not even Obama can save you now.
