Around SBN: MLB Trade Deadline: Phils, Astros complete Roy Oswalt deal

Some citizens and officials in the Brazilian city are upset with comments the comedian made on a recent appearance on the "Late Show" with David Letterman, saying Rio received the 2016 Olympics because it sent "50 strippers and a pound of blow" to compete with Chicago's entourage that included President Barack Obama

They had every right to be upset

Williams was way out of line. Everyone knows that Brazil is on the Metric system. It was a Kilo of blow. A pound of blow, being less than half a Kilo, would be considered paltry for a brine of such huge consequence. Also, they prefer the term “Pageant contestant” to “Stripper”.
