ESPN proudly displayed this headline on its bottom ticker over the weekend:
MILAN RELEASES PRESS RELEASE STATING KAKA IS ABSOLUTELY NOT FOR SALE!
Now, I am assuming that this headline referred to Italian Serie A soccer club AC Milan and its Brazilian midfielder, Ricardo Kaka', in response to some rumors that the club was shopping Kaka' (to English Premier League team Chelsea). Purportedly Kaka' is expendable since the purchase of Ronaldinho's contract from FC Barcelona. However, it sounds a lot funnier completely out of context, especially since not only is Kaka not for sale, it is ABSOLUTELY not for sale. Perhaps they are just trying to give it (him) away.
If you don't understand why this is a funny headline, ask your Spanish neighbor, teacher, friend or gardener.
