God is not a sports fan, I don’t think. There are reportedly one billion people in this world that are hungry, several wars and people worldwide trying to get over terrible disasters-I don’t believe God cares who won the NBA Finals.

LeBron James brought his “talents” to South Beach, too bad those “talents” don’t include a heart-or the ability for correct introspection. Now, after the worst final choke in history his answer is that God didn’t want him to win. He tweeted “The greater man upstairs knows when it is my time. Right now isn’t the time.” At least he acknowledged that God is the greater man.

Does this mean that God is a Maverick fan? Or that God was rooting for Dirk or Jason? Or that God was just rooting against Miami?

When Israel crossed the Jordan and the walls of Jericho (not my friend the Canadian wrestler and Dancing with the Stars sensation, Chris) came tumbling down-I think it would be safe to assume that God, if you believe the Bible, had chosen sides.

When Joe Louis said we would win WW II because “God is on our side”, you can argue that, if you believe God is for good and against evil, that indeed God delivered a victory for the Allies and had chosen sides.
One of the greatest promos in history occurred in the WWF, now WWE, when Stone Cold Steve Austin was wrestling Jake Roberts in the King of the Ring PPV finals in Milwaukee. Jake had been using a character that had found religion, and as wrestling often does in blurring reality and fiction, Jake had indeed embraced a religious reformation outside of the WWF.

Steve got on the microphone, after his victory, and stated that Jake should have read Austin 3:16 which stated that, “He had just kicked you’re a**”. Shortly after WWF business went through the roof with Steve becoming biggest name in wrestling history. I believe it had to do with the fact, partly, that someone finally stated emphatically that God is not a sports fan, especially when the “sport” isn’t even a sport.

Thank God for your health, for your family, for the opportunity-but please don’t thank God anymore for sports victories-I don’t believe he is a sports fan, and I hope he is not because I hope he has bigger issues to work on. And, PLEASE whatever you do-don’t blame him for your losses-that is just classless.

Now as LeBron stated so emphatically-I’ll go back to my daily life as we commoners tend to do. Which isn’t so bad-and, BTW, I have as many rings as LeBron.
