Juicy Donuts
If this was done by anyone other than the person who actually drew it, I would assume it was anti-semitic.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 9 October 2016
You probably heard about the Budgie Nine.
They seem to have gotten off without even a slap on the wrist from their Malaysian stripping escapade, though being known as “the Budgie Nine” for the rest of their lives sounds like a pretty severe punishment in itself.
This week we want you to use your team name to give them a new name.
The Drunk and Disorderly Nine
The Spoiled Schoolboy Nine
The Please Respect the Privacy of People Who Clearly Never Learned About Irony at Private School Nine
Anything team name that is an alternate to the Budgie Nine will get you a bonus point.
Have an interesting week.
