RE: God and sports
As you've no doubt gathered, what pisses me off about stuff like this is that it so clearly demonstrates the dumb logic that goes along with religion.
This idiot (and his ilk) decides that any coincidence that works to his benefit is attributed to the gods. But any time things go wrong, it's just bad luck.
If last night's 13-1 stomping is any indication, his gods were just getting his hopes up just high enough so there's a good bounce after the fall.
Of course, I also suspect that his faith is a total sham. If he really believed the gods to be responsible for his team's success, then come Sunday when the Rockies lose in four straight games, he'd at minimum declare himself an agnostic. But he won't. Hypocrite.
