I think this year since both teams were led by good Cristian men god just let them fight it out on the playing field. That means Indy really did win I guess.

I hate when people think God will favor their team. A supreme being would not give a [censored] about a football game.

The sad thing is that more football fans probably prayed for their team to win than for some social problem.

Both coaches of this year's Super bowl are professed 'Christian' Coaches. Both give God all the credit after their teams victories. They both have team prayer sessions before a game. How did God decide which team would win this time?

I image most years it is pretty easy for him because there is usually one team that is more religious than the other but this must have been a tough one for him [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

God picked all the Super Bowl winners 6000 years ago at the beginning of time. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

The <Racist comment> <naw, it's a joke> formula is pretty lame in general.

I don't think they were thanking "God" for helping them to win the game but for helping them to be the best they could be. Sort of like someone who wins an award and thanks their parents. Of course such a common sense interpretation doesn't lend itself to the cheap shots.

Maybe you missed when Dungy said that God put his team down 18 points against NE so they could overcome it?

I did miss that. Did he say anything about how God handled the Point Spread?

He had to take into account prayers from:
-Coaches
-Owners
-Players
-Player's family members
-Bookies
-Bettors
-Bettor's family members who wanted them to win VS those who prayed for a cure to the bettor's gambling problem
-Fans

After analyzing his data:
-Number of times times each individual said a prayer
-Number of times they attended church during the season minus the number of times they fell asleep while there
-How many good deeds were done during the season minus the number of curse words used (X2 for the times the lord's name was used.)
-How many episode of The Office each person watched during the season (The Office's producers prayed for ratings)

He used Microsoft Divine Calculator which plugged everything into a standard equation, the answer to which was "the Colts"
