​Good athletes tend to make good soldiers so we can be all we can be, the few and the proud (in Christ) who are dedicated to serving our King and winning in His name. Aim high!

​"Aim high!" Sounds like something my Air Force son would say. It takes on new meaning in this context. By the way, he made major this past Dec. ...a major pain :) but, actually, no pain, he's saved by God's grace and I was blessed to hear him preach at my local church last year for Memorial Day.

I can't believe any reasonable man could waste God's time and money watching millionaires play a children's game when they should be floppin whoppers at burger king in all fairness- this goes even MORE for football except 90% of those players would be in prison and not burger king.

Good clean fun....I suppose but make no mistake, the countless hours of precious time you waste watching this dribble will all be for naught in eternity and you will regret it.

Hey but I guess you could be watching porn instead so enjoy.

​Great, another one that should join a monastery with others who enjoy self flagellation.  You seem to be another that believes that God demands that everyone be dirt poor, miserable, denying themselves any pleasures that are apart from continual prayer, fasting, and work in the ministry. Do you own a TV?  If so, why?  Let me guess, for news and weather only, you would never consider watching any TV programs on it, or do you spend a few hours a day watching programming?  If you tell me that you only watch 'wholesome" programs, then tell me what is "un-wholesome" about sports? I fail to see any language, nudity, sexual situations in it as long as you don't watch the Super Bowl half time.  Maybe you just believe that anything you don't like must be evil.  Oh, I see...It is riches that are evil, since your main complaint against sports figures is the millions they make.  So everyone that is rich must be evil like Abraham, David, Solomon, Job....the list goes on and on and on.  Do you make any more money than what is required for food, raiment, and bare essentials shelter, giving 100% of any excess above those base needs to the work of the ministry?  I pity your wife and kids if you have them since it appears all forms of family entertainment are inherently evil unless their only joy in life is prayer, fasting, and evangelism.

​Yeah you are right brother, apologies. It is not my business what others do or don't. I must have had a beam in my coffee that morning.
