When putting together my NCAA Basketball Pool this year, I had this idea to take famous (or not so famous) quotations and sort of butcher them to a basketball and/or basketball pool theme. I came up with about 100 of them. Some were a stretch. Some were really funny.

So here's the game (and you people asked for another stupid Funewgy game so this is all your fault), modify a reasonably famous quotation to something funny. You may want to play the diving theme card. You may want to make it sensual/sexual (since that card seems to play well in this crowd). Just make sure it's entertaining.

I think I'll start with the diving theme. Ready go...

Actually should be "Ich bin Berliner", but a Berliner isn't really just a doughnut. It's a jelly filled doughnut. But the Berliners knew what he meant, which after all is the important thing.
