translation jokes

Yesterday a turkish football team Fenerbahce played with an itallian team AC Milan on an international match. One of Milan's most famous player's name is "Kaka" which happens to mean "Shit in turkish. Last night he played well and mostly for his efforts (and 2 goals) Milan defeated Fenerbahce 3-1 in Milano.
Today all the newspapers sport headlines are filled with all kinds of sick jokes about his name. It is very common in many tabloid style papers in Turkey. When a foreign name matches any turkish word the jokers begin to work.

Some headlines :

Fenerbahce had been 'Kaka'ed

Our dreams had been filled with... "Kaka's photo is shown here".

Damn your name "Kaka"

ps : By the way "Turkey" is open to elementary school type of jokes in the english speaking word. (I know you made one in your geography class...:))
