Religion in Sports
Dec 27, 2007 | 8:15PM | report this

Recently watching an episonde of "Behind the Lines,"  and all these athletes who pray to God on the sports field, I was struck by the image of Quarterback John Kitna as he was explaining himself.  He seemed to be one of those people who suddenly lose it and go on a murderous spree killing 50 people?  The man had wild eyes like Charles Manson.

I would feel uneasy playing with Kitna.  I would feel uneasy having him as my leader on the field.  The guy comes accross as a wacko.  Most religious fanatics do come across as maniacs.

God cares as much about a football game as Britney Spears cares about her kids.

These atheletes who profess their spirituality on the field are just trying to create an image.  They are successful of creating an image of a fanatical ####.
