    Joke of the Week

    Two 90 year old men, Mike and Joe, have been friends all of their lives. When it's clear that Joe is dying, Mike visits him every day. One day Mike says, "Joe, we both loved football all our lives, and we played Sunday football together for so many years. Please do me one favour, when you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's football there."
    Joe looks up at Mike from his death bed," Mike, you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favour for you.

    Shortly after that, Joe passes on.

    At midnight a couple of nights later, Mike is awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him,"

    "Mike--Mike." "Who is it? asks Mike sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?" "Mike--it's me, Joe." "You're not Joe. Joe just died." "I'm telling you, it's me, Joe," insists the voice." "Joe! Where are you?" "In heaven", replies Joe. "I have some really good news and a little bad news." "Tell me the good news first," says Mike. "The good news," Joe says," is that there's football in heaven. Better yet, all of our old friends who died before us are here, too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always spring time and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play football all we want, and we never get tired."

    "That's fantastic," says Mike. "It's beyond my wildest dreams! So what's the bad news?

    "You're playing Tuesday."

    Also, you should all be very proud of the performance you put in last Sunday. The passing, moving and standard of football was fantastic. You thoroughly deserved the win and could easily have won by a bigger margin than you did. Even the Biddulph team parents were clapping after one of the goals was scored!! Ben deserved his man of the match award, but each and every one of you performed brilliantly.

    Joke of the Week
    It was a boring Sunday afternoon in the jungle so the Elephants decided to challenge the Ants to a game of soccer. The game was going well with the Elephants beating the Ants ten goals to nil, when the Ants gained possession. The Ants' star player was dribbling the ball towards the Elephants' goal when the Elephants' left back came lumbering towards him.
    The elephant trod on the little ant, killing him instantly.

    The referee stopped the game. "What the hell do you think you're doing? Do you call that sportsmanship, killing another player?"

    The elephant replied, "Well, I didn't mean to kill him -- I was just trying to trip him up."

    Joke of the Week

    An old man and his wife have gone to bed.
    After laying there a few minutes the old man farts and says,"Seven Points."

    His wife rolls over and says, "What in the world was that?"
    The old man replied, "It's fart football!"

    A few minutes later the wife lets one go and says -
    "Touchdown, tie score!"

    After about five minutes the old man farts again and says -
    "Touchdown, I'm ahead 14 to 7!"

    Not to be out done the wife rips another one and says, -
    "Touchdown, tie score!"
    Five seconds go by and she lets out a squeaker and says -
    "Fieldgoal, I lead 17 to 14!"

    Now the pressures on and the old man refuses to get beat by a woman so he strains real hard but to no avail. Realizing a defeat is totally unacceptable he gives it everything he has but instead of farting he poops the bed.

    The wife looks and says, "What the heck was that?"

    The old man replied, "Half-time, Switch sides!"

    Bullfight Buffet  
     
      A man goes to Spain and attends a bullfight. Afterwards he goes to a nearby restaurant and orders the specialty of the day. The waiter brings him two very big balls on a huge plate, which the tourist eats with relish.
    The next day he goes to the same restaurant again, once again orders the specialty of the day, and he is brought two very big balls on a huge plate. It tastes even more scrumptious.

    The third day he does the same and the fourth, but on the fifth day he goes to the restaurant and orders the specialty of the day, and they bring him two very small balls on a big plate. The man asks, "What gives?"

    And the waiter says, "Senor, the bullfighter doesn't always win!"

    A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, he said: \"Now, students, if I stood on my head the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I should turn red in the face.\"

    \"Yes, sir,\" the boys said.

    \"Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn\'t run into my feet?\"
