Hakeem Olajuwon Loves Posting-Up, Terrorism
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A mosque established and funded by basketball star Hakeem Olajuwon gave more than $80,000 to charities the government later determined to be fronts for the terror groups al-Qaida and Hamas, according to financial records obtained by The Associated Press.
Forget about the fact that it was probably an accident and that the government isn't even investigating him for this, I'm just hoping that the
NY Post picks up on it and decides to make it back page news. First off, you know they'd use a photograph of Hakeem standing on the court with his arms on his hips looking exacerbated. Then they'd use a completely tasteless and inappropriate play-on-words headline. That may be my favorite thing the Post does. In fact, I'd give anything to be the guy who comes up with the headlines. I'm gonna use the Hakeem thing as my audition. Here's what I got:
Hakeem Ola-jihad
Hakeem In Ha-mess
The 'Dream': Annhilation
Center of Controversy
Houston's Evil Rocket
Hakeem's Dream: Destroying America
Flagrant Foul!
Al-Queda's Dream Team
Bin Laden's Rocket Man
Hamas Be A Mistake!
So come on Post, hire me. Being the headline guy would be marginally more exciting than being the guy in Entertainment Weekly who decides what's Hot, what's Not, and what's So Five Minutes Ago.
In an ideal world, I'd be both. Someday. Someday.
