    I feel like every few years, we get the "so-and-so is going through two-a-days while fasting for Ramadan!" story. And I know my main man Oday Aboushi counts. He's even Palestinian!

    The Donald's tweet implied that Muslim sports heroes don't exist. If you want to pretend otherwise, have at it.

    I'm not sure what the argument is here. Obama said that Muslims are "our sports heroes." The greatest heavyweight champion of all time and the NBA's leading all-time scorer are Muslim. If those aren't "sports heroes," I don't know who is. YF, you and Donald Trump are grafting additional meaning onto Obama's sentence, and then arguing against it. There's a word for that type of argument.
