Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley is just about ready to sell his team for $600 million, UPI reports. The potential buyers are pretty infamous in the Middle East. They are the bin Ladens.

As in, Osama bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaida who is either dead or currently still hiding like a pansy. The very wealthy family, the distant relatives of the man behind 9/11, could be the full owners of this soccer club. And you’ve got to think, if Osama is was a terrorist, don’t you think his family has something to do terrorism, too?

It’s not always the case, but if papa is a billionaire shoes salesman, you’re probably going to get into the shoe-selling business as well.

OK, so the family has apparently disowned Osama. But they’re still family. It’s the same reason why it’s probably hard for Jason Simpson, OJ’s son, to get a date.

Frank Gilmour of the Independent Newcastle United Supporters’ Association isn’t so happy:

It’s disgusting, an absolute joke. But it’s up to Mike Ashley. Will he really be prepared to sell the club to the family of a terrorist?

Call it racist. Call it prejudice or call it pattern-seeking. But selling a $600-million soccer team to a family linked to the douchiest terrorist ever is a bad sell.
