Today’s post is about the separation of church and football. It’s Superbowl Sunday — everything is about football.Today’s question: who does God want to win? Let’s find out together by counting how many players mention, point, or otherwise refer to a deity during the game. In fact, let’s make it a drinking game! Post a comment when you hear one and of course, the post-game interviews count!Enjoy the game.
Looks like Kurt Warner got nothing for kissing the ass of jesus. But I’m sure he’ll continue to be a slave to dogma…

You’d have had a better drinking game if you had gone with the penalty flags version! The godbots were pretty quiet during last night’s game. But I was too wrapped up in the play most of the time to remember to notice, to tell the truth. Even the post-game interviews were mostly secular. Mike Tomlin said he was the most blessed coach, but didn’t say by what or whom. Roethlisberger, who gave god a nod at the end of the playoff game, made no such mention last night.
Now, come away from the dark side and join the Steeler Nation!
Karen,
I would have had a better drinking game if I had just gone with the personal fouls. Nothing against the Steelers, I just thought it might be a blowout and wanted a good game. Sure got it, didn’t we?
If I had to pick a NFL team as my favorite, I guess It would be Kansas City. But hey, give me a break. At least it’s not the Lions.
I saw so many damned Steelers praying. There should be a separation of football and religion. The ref should throw the yellow flag everytime a player is seen doing a religious quake-n-flake or whatever, perhaps it should be viewed as just another form of unsportsman like conduct. I wish there were also a yellow flag for politics too, whereby saying God counts as a loss of 1000 votes off of the final score.
karen:
I didn’t accuse you of lying about it. I was just pointing out the inconsistency in how it serves you for making arguments here.
…that your memory seems to consistently serve you with…
…yet you always seem to have trouble remembering all the times I’ve had to correct you about them… Interesting how I can affect your selective memory.
My, my; we’re soooo testy — and even after your team won… Sorry this hit such a nerve, but I believe it’s not the first time I’ve done that.
Yeah, I bet He’d make the same difference in you too.
Sexual innuendo isn’t tolerated here jcc.
Karen!! Go Steelers!!!

I wouldn’t have minded a Steeler blowout, but I didn’t really expect one, even though they were the favorite. We had a season full of come-from-behind games, and a couple where we managed to snare defeat from the jaws of victory. The drama made for a really good game. A close win after an exchange of leads is always more interesting than a blowout.
KC is fine; just stay away from the Raiders and the Redskins. And Cleveland.

Superbowl Number 6!!!! Booyah! I don’t know whether to retire my Terrible Towel, which has seen me through the latest 2 Steeler Superbowls, or to keep on using it for good luck. Not that I’m superstitious, or anything.
jcc claims to be a son of god. Wow.
I always wondered if his nick was significant wrt J.C. Now we know. It turns out he thinks he is jesus christ’s child.
I have faith that this is true and no evidence can sway me. Bow down and worship him. He is the second coming of jesus.

You may be right, but I think doubt can be established based on the Bible stories where Jesus actually responded to questions instead of handing out accusations. He cannot defend his insanity, so he tries to cast shadows on reason. Pathetic.

godless – “Why do you breeders get so excited over ritualised combat, albeit with strong homoerotic overtones? I just dont get the appeal of sports at all.”
That’s funny to hear someone else say that. I’ve never had much interest in sports, and was often called a fag as a kid because of that. I always had to laugh, though, because I saw the irony in being called that by people who were fascinated with watching grown men huddle up together, pat each other’s butts, chase each other around a field and pull each other to the ground, and pile up on top of each other.
Now if sporting events involved naked women chasing each other around, I might be a fan. Yeah, I know, I’m a pig. Oink.
