Channing Crowder/London

that....my friend....is an american millionaire for ya..

I honestly think he was just joking...

at least I hope so.

I remember this before the game in London:lol:

Here's the story and there are others, just look for it under "Channing Crowder London quote". I'm not surprised, because there are American Citizens who have no idea where the states are on a map unless the names are on it. Embarrasing though!

Maybe he was joking, but gregarious Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder confessed today he didn’t know until Tuesday that people spoke English in London.

Poll: Do you think he was kidding?
Crowder, a former Florida Gator and Atlanta native, apparently isn’t sure where the plane is headed when it takes off this afternoon for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants in Wembley Stadium.

“I couldn’t find London on a map if they didn’t have the names of the countries,†Crowder said. “I swear to God. I don’t know what nothing is. I know Italy looks like a boot. I learned that.

“I know (Washington Redskins linebacker) London Fletcher. We did a football camp together. So I know him. That’s the closest thing I know to London. He’s black, so I’m sure he’s not from London. I’m sure that’s a coincidental name.â€

When reminded Dolphins practice squad receiver and NFL Europe veteran Marvin Allen is from London, Crowder’s standup routine didn’t miss a beat.

“He’s from London?†Crowder said. “I knew he was from over there because he talks funny. I was surprised (when they met) because — I don’t want to say he didn’t look the part because that’s a stereotype — but he didn’tlook the part. I heard him talk, and I thought he had a recorder and was just mouthing.â€
