Well, I just make a conclusion: "If you say that you want the game so badly, what means that you gonna risk everything, you should... ehm... risk something?"
This makes nonsense. And nonsense is (for me) funny even without irony. That's why everyone make laugh here.
To cut long off-top short, one more Latvian joke:
"Boy name Zemgus play very good hockey. Is ask father:
"Father, is Zemgus and is play good hockey. Can I is go to Amerika and make money for potato?"
Such brings tear to father's eye. Father is use for potato salt.
"Ja, Zemgus. Go make family proud and make lots of potato."
Zemgus is go to Amerika. Is play hockey for big hockey team in Amerika city. Zemgus write to father.
Father. Is Zemgus play in big hockey league now. Is make many money. Will send potato soon.
Father is think hallucinate from malnourish. Father is kill self for end struggle.
Such is life."
