Screaming for a snarky caption

Kerry:  "Blue!  101!  Blue!  101!  Hut-hut-hut!"

Aide with hand cupped to ear:  "Did I just hear someone predicting our electoral vote count?"

Kerry, outside his campaign plane before departing from Tampa to Orlando for a campaign stop on Friday, Oct. 1, 2004.  Yahoo News caption: 'Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry plays football whilst on the campaign trail. More than 62 million US viewers tuned in to the first of three presidential debates in this year's election campaign, making it the most watched since 1992, according to Nielsen Media Research (AFP/Luke Frazza)'

I'm sure you can do better than my feeble captioning effort, with a picture like this to work from.  (Just keep it reasonably non-profane, please.)

If you desire to resume bilateral talks with our esteemed leader Kim Jung Il, you must send two supertankers full of oil, 10,000 tons of wheat, and assume the pictured position daily in front of the press. Then we'll think about it.

Please remember, agreeing to participate in the talks obligates you to the weekly shipment schedule, and absolves us of any liability for your ships, personnel, or any of our stray missiles.

Foreign Minister of the Great Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Kim Yong-nam.

P.S. Orange is optional.

Listen up; this is how I “earned” my third Purple Heart. From this position, I threw a grenade into a rice bin, peppering my ass with rice. Then I wrote up a phony after-action report indicating I was wounded by a mine. With a third Purple Heart I got a ticket home 8 months early and I left the fighting to lesser mortals not anointed to be President.

Candidate for the office of President of the United States displaying how he would "reach out to the world community for global unity in a good faith effort, instead of extending an olive branch, he uses a marvel of modern technology a football". All the while looking "presidential", but wait.... an as an added bonus, when he speaks, you wont know which orifice the's talking out of.

While one aid is informed of Senator John Kerry's Muslim heritage--

Kerry throws away pigskin after realizing it will offend his new found heritage.

(Seriously, this was in the news. He's got Jewish, Christian and Muslim heritage.)

Fumble!

While demonstrating 20-20 hindsight, presidential candidate John F. Kerry fumbles the pigskin in a friendly game of self-touch football. A Kerry spokesperson explained that aides do not actually participate but stand on the sidelines out of harm's way. "Mr. Kerry plays all positions, all sides, and enjoys the dexterity of a man half his age," he said. "He's a good sport and refs the games too."

Senator John F. Kerry, having denied that the U.S. military needs "bunker buster" nuclear weapons, demonstrates his alternative national defence posture based on the pre-emptive deployment of the football.

Kerry thought bubble:

I love it when they let me play center, if I do it just right, I get to cop a feel of the quarterback's package.

One second later:

Hey! Where's the quarterback? Come on guys, you know the rules.
