The Lovin' Irish

I have to tell you that as a man of high moral character who believes in absolute fairness and tolerance for all, that I am deeply offended over a current smear campaign being spewed over the public airwaves.

Those of you who watch Spike TV know exactly what I am talking about, and to our female readers and Gary whom I assume do not, let me explain....

The UFC is holding a pay per view fight night this coming Saturday from Belfast, Ireland. As an American fight fan with deep roots to the north of Ireland, this should bring me great joy.

However....

What bothers me is the blatant stereotypical portrayal of my fellow donkeys as nothing more than drunken donnybrookers. In advertisements the viewer is constantly reminded of the Irish's love of all things pugilistic.

Needless to say I am aghast.

Imagine the outrage if Nathans were to hold their annual hot dog eating competition in San Francisco, the World Javelin Finals were held in Niger, the Spic n Span Olympics took place in Mexico City, or the beer game Quarters World Series went down at Shlomo Goldberg's pub in Tel Aviv and our public airwaves were inundated with reminders of the above mentioned locales affinity for wiener swallowing, spear chucking, housecleaning and all things coinage.

Well don't pull a muscle, just trust me on this one, there would be outrage. So heeding the age old advice of "if you cant beat em join em" I decided to write my local congresswoman and hold a joint press conference with Al Sharpton

Until...

I came to my senses and realized that I dont give a fuck, and that minor transgressions of the vernacular verbiage variety are truly nothing but a small thang to a big man. As long as you play the victim you shall remain a victim, so in other words stop being a bunch of pussies.
