You make money from football?
You not dumb.
 
It is dumb. American football diesn't have a ball, but an egg-shaped thing instead. Also, they don't play it with their feet.
It shouldn't be called "football", but "guys in armour carry a egg around" instead.

Ah ha! I was right!

And you would think since they can pay bazillion dollar salaries that they could at least buy a new ball instead of sewing the one up they have.

I use to like football.
I was dumb then.
Could someone tell me if football is not dumb?

When I saw this thread I thought about chiming in with my dissenting opinion about football, but then decided not to because I'm already on thin ice with enough people around here, lol.

But then I saw your post and changed my mind. I see I'm not alone.
 
My favorite line at the office on Monday morning after the Super Bowl when people start talking about the game: "Oh, I don't follow baseball."

im not into football but it came from rugby and it is kicked from time to time. I prefer it too soccer, where the people kill the players for simply loosing or winning.
 
Can football be Christian?
"God bless you", POW!!!
WHAM!!! "Praise the Lord".
Yeah, I guess it can be.

There are certain questions that guys can answer honestly at only great peril. The most famous example of this is when your girlfriend or wife asks, “Honey, does this dress make me look fat?” That is not a question, it is a trap and you had better lie and lie convincingly if you prefer your ankle intact.

A former colleague told me he’d found a way to spring the trap. He called it the “like a whale” exception. He explained, his wife — who I think was with child at the time — had put on a sun dress and asked him the dread question and I guess he was feeling suicidal that day. “Like a whale,” he said. There was a pregnant pause and then she burst out laughing — and never asked him that question again.

If only Abe Lincoln had thought of that:
 
My husband is a huge Broncos fan. Me, I'm not much for football. It is America's great distraction. It has been below zero at some of these games this weekend and the stadium is packed. Would these same people come out to hear the word of God when the temps were so cold? I don't think so.

Your husband is a Bronco's fan? Why; they have lost games? The fans are nuts and my last attendance to one of their games was to treat a young Bo Jackson fan from our church to watch Bo's last game in our stadium when it was so cold it was near impossible to breathe.

Fans would attack anyone of opposing colors, and my young friend showed up in full silver and black Raider's regalia. Oh boy!!! As he took his outer coats off to show off I just stood up, turned to face all about me and told my sad story. Now I have come to this game to treat my young friend on his sixteenth birthday to watch Bo Jackson. If anyone of you do not like his uniform let me know, let's get it on now and then more or less I said something or the other telling them to keep their mouths shut and allow us to watch the game. Much to my surprise someone about twenty rows up hollered something to the effect; "Hey, just sit down and enjoy the game."

We both near froze to death, Bo Jackson delivered with a touchdown for my friend; I didn't look around to observe the reaction of them around us as my friend was going ballistic in his silver and black among a sea of orange and blue. I do watch them at times and this last Sunday I fell asleep taking a nap at halftime and woke up at the end of the game to find out they got lucky again.

Church? What has the world to do with things eternal? But I have read testimonies of persecuted sons of God attending brush harbors to worship together at risk to life and limb, and walking miles to do so in complete white outs. Today there is little cross to bear at least in this country, but in some other places great sacrifice is being made even to the loss of life.
Blessings in Christ Jesus. :wave2

We don't know.

But a rolling pin isn't a good weapon. The center of its mass is too close to your hand. You can hit a lot harder if the mass center is further away or at the other end of your blunt object. Try a frying pan.

I don't know anything about that. Sorry that you had a bad experience with Bronco fans. We are both from Colorado and he likes what's his name, the guy that used to be their quarterback and now is the manager of the team. I don't even know what the Broncos record is this year because I rarely watch it.

Other countries, yes, they will risk life and limb to worship Jesus and bring the gospel. Our country, there are some very strong Christians in this nation, but we are so spoiled in this country and we have so many other distractions. But yet when their favorite team is play football, no matter what the temperature, they will be there.

Blessings to you also.
