Berry Tramel, Sports columnist, should stick to sports. He seems to be confusing Palm Sunday with Easter. From his latest column:
So what did Barber do Sunday? He ran out of bounds on the first, fumbled on the second.
Maybe it wasn’t Barber’s fault. Maybe Barber was powerless to stop providential forces. Maybe God really is watching out for Tim Tebow.
Maybe Jehovah Jireh is taking an interest in the National Football League. Maybe the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is watching out for the team of Elway, Fox and Miller. Maybe God cares if the Denver Broncos win on Sunday.
“He doesn’t,” said a sharp gal in the office with a degree from Azusa Pacific, an evangelical Christian university in California.
But what if He does?
“He doesn’t.”
OK. But what if He does?
“He doesn’t.”
Probably so. But what if He does?
I mean, didn’t all the Florida writers at the Big Bowl three years ago try to tell us? Didn’t they wave palm branches at Tebow like he was wearing the shroud of Turin?
This isn’t even a good sports story.
I think that’s hilarious. :)
Tim Tebow has accomplished one thing with his consistent zeal for the Lord: even sportscasters and sports columnists are talking about God.
When Tony Dungee’s Colts beat Gruden’s Bucs by coming from waaaay far behind and got 21 points in the last 3 minutes of the game… at that point, I think everybody in the stadium had to admit THERE IS A GOD, and He loves Tony Dungee.
I think it’s hilarious that people would think God would choose sides in a football game. ;-)

Just happens tonight on a local network CTSHD, they had a show/discussion called; Tebowing:Super offense for Stumbling Offence? I must admit I was completely ignorant of the whole hoopla going on over this Tim Tebow. It is really disturbing to hear some of the comments made opposing Tebow’s gestures. Anyways if anyone is interested in reading about it go to http://www.crossroads.ca, unde rthe heading discussions…Some of the comments are pretty interesting.
