Tommie Harris’ anti-Semitic joke

Peter King is Sports Illustrated’s senior NFL writer, and this week he is on a USO trip with pro football players to visit troops in Afghanistan. He’s keeping a diary at his Inside the NFL blog, and I imagine this joke by Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris, one of a few ribs that King says bring “levity to serious surroundings,” wouldn’t go over well with the ADL.

Harris riddles us for a while, then produces a joke best saved for last.

“What did the pig say to the Muslim?”

Silence.

“Shalom.”
