Praying for victory and a direct connection?
One Catholic Father asked his parish to pray that the Miami Dolphins would finally win a game.
The 0-12 team won. The Ravens lost their 8th straight despite certain prayers on their behalf.
What’s God to do in a case like this anyway?
Yogi Berra’s advice – “Can we leave God out of this?”

Meanwhile, another team, the Pittsburgh Steelers may have had a direct line to the Almighty.
A woman took her dead husband’s ashes to a Steelers’ game to honor the second of his two dying wishes:
1. have the team logo carved into his gravestone
2. take him to Heinz Field, the place he wanted to see most.
We might reckon his ashes saw the place, while he was in heaven making a direct pitch for his team.
Seriously, can we leave God out of these games?
