God wanted the Colts to win?

[joecool65]

Did anyone else catch Irsay basically claiming that in accepting the Lamar Hunt trophy?
Did God also tell his old man to move the Colts in the middle of the night from Baltimore to Indianapolis?

1. Long ago the Jets made a pact with the devil

[alcibiades_mystery]

5. Mark Gastineau Cajun voodoo at Studio 54

It's well known in certain sections of Queens.

[FarCenter]

13. I thought the pact with Satan was made by Joe Namath prior to Super Bowl III

and that was how they beat the Colts in '69.

[alcibiades_mystery]

20. No, that was sweet Jesus lifting Broadway Joe

The pact with Satan came when those dimwits on the defensive line started calling themselves the New York Sack Exchange, thereby freeiong up everybody to like Wall Street and thereby wrecking the whole world.

[joecool65]

6. Did Joe Namath make one before Super Bowl III?

Is that why Broadway Joe guaranteed a win? It all makes sense now.

[undeterred]

2. God was drinking and watching the game with Colts fans.

:shrug:

[usregimechange]

3. God is clearly a Colts fan.

[Bluebear]

4. Yes, having smote and smitten Haiti He needed to blow off some steam with a game

People.

[daleo]

7. I don't think God cares who wins

Just as long as he beats the spread.

[KittyWampus]

8. no no. The Colts fans just prayed harder

[Initech]

9. It's like George Carlin said: God is undefeated.

[RainDog]

10. Irsay isn't weird in that way

He has ensured the preservation of Kerouac's original scroll for On the Road.

His wife is very new age-y... from the little bit I've been in her presence.

anyway, just to say that I've had reason to be around them, not because I know them, and they don't seem to be all that right wing.

[joecool65]

But he did start to imply that God wanted the Colts to win...

...then he seemed to catch himself on what he was saying.

[RainDog]

18. I didn't hear it, or watch the game

in fact, I just heard the game was today on... Friday.

so, I'm not a football fan at all.

I was just commenting on a moment when, by weirdness, I was around them and my impression.

...but, you know, he may be playing to his audience for all I know.

[Captain Hilts]

11. Bob Irsay was such a shit, his own mother didn't speak to him. The way they left Balt. was a crime.

[joecool65]

12. Does this mean the "Saints" win win?

Or is New Orleans being called the "Saints" blasphemy? Any thought?

[Captain Hilts]

19. If they win, it will be because of voodoo and tarot cards mixed with Catholicism. If they lose it

will be because of voodoo, tarot cards and Catholicism.

Beats the shit, or rather, the 'hell' outta me.

[dysfunctional press]

14. so it would seem.

i wonder who he's liking in the nfc game?

[Myrina]

15. ... he must be abusing the Oxycodone again ...

... this state is about as full of the Fundie Stoopid as one can possibly imagine.

I ask myself almost every day why I still live here. :wtf:

[usregimechange]

16. God likes the Vikings so far

[wellstone dem]

21. C'mon God!!!!! Go Favre!

[pipi_k]

23. Well it might look that way, but I think God has something up his sleeve...

He's gonna let the Vikings get one point ahead for most of the game, then in the last 1/2 second of the 4th quarter, God is gonna come down in a Saints uniform and kick the game winning field goal.

[usregimechange]

25. God like them both equally now

[MadMaddie]

30. I don't know, the Vikings have been turning the ball over

faster than a wink of an eye....

[MindPilot]

17. God is not a Colts fan

He just really hates the Jets.

[pipi_k]

22. I don't even think God is a football fan...

They never pray to him before games like they do before NASCAR racing...

[557188]

24. Baltimore doesn't deserve an NFL team

Not after the way they stole the Browns from Cleveland. Bunch of hypocrites. I support Irsay due to the actions of that city.

[Swede]

27. .

:rofl:

[ddeclue]

26. God has a lot of money ridin' on the Colts to win... didn't you know that?

[smoochpooch]

28. I'm sure Tony Dungy thinks God wanted them to win. n/t

[Terra Alta]

29. God is clearly anti-American.

since he allowed "America's Team" to get their behinds whupped last week...:rofl:

[Fumesucker]

31. Give Jesus Christ the football let him open up the score

Run it through the crossbar and be on the cross no more

... Words to a song I vaguely remember from waaaaaay back.
