THIS WEEK’S CHATTERHEADS
Mariam Kwaham, Lincoln Park
Cody Wilkins, Whitney Young
Lee Pikelny, Lincoln Park
Lynda Lopez, Prosser
MODERATOR: If you could have seen Michael Jackson play any sport, which would it be and why?
MARIAM: Tennis, because his sparkly outfits would glare in people’s eyes when they play in the sun. He would win all the time.
CODY: Football. He would either get cracked every play, or be the most elusive player ever and never get touched.
LEE: Handball. Need I explain why?
LYNDA: Swimming. It would be exciting to watch a Phelps/Jackson face-off.
MODERATOR: The 2010 Winter Olympic medals have a wavy
shape. If you could design a medal, what would it look like?
MARIAM: A snow cone! For winter it’s so cute.
CODY: It would have a picture of a foam No. 1 finger and a smiley face on it. Unless of course you got second … then it’s a No. 2.
LEE: Ten thousand dollars on a string. What better motivation to win an event than money?
LYNDA: A trapezoid with bunny ears
MODERATOR: How do you beat an undefeated team?
MARIAM: Practice makes perfect. Except if you’re the Tennessee Titans. 0-6, my, my.
CODY: The same way you beat any other team, score more points than them. Duh.
LEE: Slip them the Detroit Lions’ playbook from last year.
LYNDA: By inviting Steve Bartman to the game
MODERATOR: Ex-White Sox pitcher and TBS baseball analyst
David Wells admitted “I just farted” live on the air during a
playoffs broadcast. What’s your reaction?
MARIAM: I think he needs some etiquette lessons.
CODY: Wow. Thanks. I can’t quite smell that one through the TV so it can’t be that bad.
LEE: If this is the only way he can make headlines, I think it’s time for him to quit.
LYNDA: Hmm, did I really need to know that?
