New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton is looking for a new quarterback. But after scouting all the colleges, he hasn’t found his man. Then one night he sees a news clip of a Bosnian soldier hurling grenades through 15-story windows from 200 yards away. That guy’s got an amazing arm, Payton says to himself. We’ve got to give him a tryout.
So the coach brings him to America, and a year later, with their new Bosnian quarterback, the Saints win their first Super Bowl. After the game the quarterback telephones his mother. “Mom,” he yells, “we won the Super Bowl! I’m famous and rich!”
“I don’t want to talk to you,” his mother says.
“At this moment there are gunshots all around. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble. Your two brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week.” She pauses, then tearfully says, “I’ll never forgive you for bringing us to New Orleans.”
