The coach of the New York Giants gets wind of a potential new young recruit who lives in Iraq ....

The team owner and the Giants recruiting Manager catch a plane to war-torn Baghdad and track the young boy down. They risk life and limb dodging bombs, bullets and grenades but finally find him and convince him to come to the USA.

The boy does a full pre-season, plays in all the practice games and earns the position of backup quarterback for the season's first game.

Ten minutes into the first quarter, the Giants quarterback goes down with a severe knee injury. The teams coach turns to the boy and says, "This is it son, show us what you can do."

The boy proceeds have the greatest NFL debut game in the history of backup quarterbacks.

The Giants team carry him off the field and give him three cheers back in the locker room. The coach tells the team what the boy from Iraq has been through and that he is a model lesson for all. The coach then pulls the boy aside and says "Go into my office son. Telephone your Mother and tell her what you did today."

He proceeds to do so. "Mum", he says, "Guess what I did today?"

"I don't care what you did today!" his Mother replies. "I tell you what happened here today," she goes on. "Your Dad was stabbed and robbed, our house was torched, our car was blown up, your sister was raped and your brother was abducted."

"Gee," says the boy. "I feel a bit responsible for what happened."

The Mother replies "So you should be, if it wasn't for you we would never have moved to New Jersey!"
