Scooter Barry Explanation

The Captain has already complained about the inclusion of Scooter Barry on the all-time Jewish basketball team list. It is a legitimate complaint because Scooter Barry is not Jewish. However, I felt like the team needed a competent guard who could at least get us in to our offensive sets, and Scooter Barry filled that role for the 1991 NCAA champion Kansas team led by Danny Manning, and coached by Larry Brown, who happens to be Jewish himself. Also, in fairness to me, I took the least talented Barry brother, just so the other teams wouldn't complain - if I go Jon Barry, of course, the blacks and Catholics are going to complain because he is too good, and I am going to have to take him off the team anyways.
