Just wonderin'
I was shocked there's a football game today. I thought about all of those people who have to work today now -- I'm thinking the concessions workers, the parking lot attendants, the clean-up crews. After all of these teeth gnashing and hair-pulling over a holiday -- IT'S MERRY CHRISTMAS DAMMIT! NOT HAPPY HOIDAYS!! -- they make all of these people work to satisfy the amusement of people who like football. I mean, these are not emergency room personnel or firemen or police, working for the public good. This is thousands of people working because we want to watch a football game.
And here we thought Christmas was supposed to be the holiest of holy days, and we were supposed to PUT THE CHRIST BACK IN IT!
I find it all very amusing, in a funny-sad kind of way.
As for Tebow, I've always been baffled by people who'd want a God who was so petty he or she cared about who won a football game.
