How Much Would Becks Charge to Put Up Drywall?
Everyone, their mother, and me have had their say about Beckham coming to America. But leave it to Stephen Colbert to come at it from a completely new angle.
Says faux-rightwing nut job pundit, “Even though he’s an immigrant, I’m fine with him coming over here. He’s just doing a job Americans don’t want to do: play professional soccer. But the problem is, he’s getting paid $250 million to do it. Immigrants are supposed to work for less, not five times the rest of the team’s salaries combined. I would hate to see what he charges to put up drywall.”
Watch the video yourself here. And keep watching the video to see Stephen’s hilarious plan to get back at fans of the minor league Oshawa Generals. A little background: fans of the Saginaw Spirit recently voted to name their mascot after Colbert, calling it “Steagle Colbeagle the Eagle.” Oshawa fans familiar with Colbert’s fear of bears, threw teddy bears onto the ice to taunt the comedian. In response, Colbert is urging Saginaw fans to throw copies of GM’s 2005 financial report onto the ice to taunt the Oshawa team, which is based in that relies heavily on its local GM plant. Too funny.
