Day of Atonement-Sports Edition

Posted on 08 October 2008 by Justin

Yom Kippur starts at sundown. Like me and millions of others around the world, some Jewish athletes will be spending the day reflecting on a year’s worth of sins, and asking for forgiveness.  And because I’m here to help, I’ve decided to compile a list of the sins committed by our favorite jewish athletes, so they know what to repent for.

Ryan Braun: He had an On Base Percentage below .300 in the Brewers first round loss to the Phillies. You’ve gotta do better than that.

Kevin Youkilis: He did nothing wrong statistically this year. In fact, he’s my pick for AL MVP.  But that beard makes him look like a vagina face.  How does his mother let him leave the house like that?

Scott Schoenweis: One pitch, one homerun, one more season down the drain for the Mets. Way to come up big on the last day of the season, Scott.

Jordan Farmar: Certainly he had a nice season for the Lakers, helping them reach the NBA Finals. And he’s done an amazing job this summer, bringing Israeli and Palestinian kids together for a basketball camp in Israel.  But the tattoos are bothersome. Doesn’t he know you can’t be buried in a Jewish cemetary with tattoos.

Sage Rosenfels: What was with that helicopter leap/fumble against the Colts? He blew a huge lead with like 5 minutes left in the game. Pathethic.

Eliot Sadler: Race cars? Really?
